A family friend lent us some costumes to dress up our cats for our Halloween card photo this year. I can't imagine someone actually paying money to buy those things. The cats absolutely hated it by the way. One cat barfed on a costume to let us know how upset she was about it.
Haha... Love that! Yeah, you know who doesn't like the costume? The animal. Course, dogs are happy 'cause they get so much extra attention and everyone looks and smiles at them. If they relate that to the wearing of the costume is highly doubtful.
It was the intro the WP article I found so funny:
Consumers may still be holding tight to their wallets after the recession, but there’s at least one occasion that doesn’t appear to have them spooked: Halloween.
So: "Yes, times are difficult but dog costume as reasonable expense? Hell, yes--sign me up!" Hahaha... You'd have to wonder what a guy from Sub-Saharan Africa or a farmer from El Salvador would think of us doing this. "They do what now? ...Put costumes on dogs? Why the heck would they do that? ...And they cost how much?" It would have to be like when us normal folks see rich people getting pedicures for their animals and giving them diamond collars.
We always had Siamese cats growing up. They would have shredded my arms to raw steak if I tried to put a masks on them.
