Some cat breeds need to be insulated in winter. These are hairless and bald cats, which, due to the lack of wool, are quite cold: Canadian and Don Sphynxes, Peterbalds. There are many specialized cat clothing stores where you can buy new cat clothes, from the simplest models to designer ones. But it seems a much more interesting option to sew clothes for a cat yourself, especially since it is not too difficult.

Instructions
Step 1
Even if you don’t know how or don’t want to sew, there is a very simple option for clothes for a cat. You need to purchase large size warm knitted socks. The socks are then trimmed on both sides to form a "tube". Holes for the paws are cut - and the sleeveless jacket for the cat is ready.
Step 2
A fairly simple version of clothing for a cat is a jumpsuit. You need to measure the animal and draw a pattern. The openings for the neck and tail should not hinder movement, and the sleeves on the legs should also be free. The optimal fabric is jersey. Lightweight, warm and stretchable, it will not interfere with your cat's movement. She will quickly get used to new clothes. The clasp is done either on the back or on the stomach. The first option is preferable.
Step 3
Clothes for a cat can be knitted. Having bought a soft wool and picked up a style, you can get down to business. In such a business as knitting clothes for a pet, there is a lot of fantasy!
Step 4
Your cat should like the costume you made first. If she sheds it, it is possible that not everything in the clothes seems comfortable to her, and another option should be chosen. Remember that the cat needs these clothes, not you, so you shouldn't add anything just for beauty. The cat will most likely not appreciate this.
