Halloween Prep: Choosing the Perfect Cat Costume

Halloween Prep: Choosing the Perfect Cat Costume

Brought to you by NekoPunch – where every day is Cat-urday, but Halloween is a whole mood.

Ah, Halloween. A time of ghosts, goblins, and… grumpy cats in banana suits.

Every year, you swear this will be the year your cat accepts their destiny as a hot dog, astronaut, or tiny Dracula. And every year, you walk away with scratches, judgment, and a shredded costume.

Still, we try.

Here’s your definitive, not-at-all-helpful-but-hilarious guide to choosing the perfect Halloween costume for your cat — whether they like it or not.

🧛♂️ 1. The Classic Vampire Cat

Pros: Elegant. Timeless. All black cats already qualify.
Cons: May inspire your cat to bite you even more.
Level of Sass: 9/10
Level of Blood Loss: Varies by cape tightness.

🍣 2. The Sushi Roll

Perfect for cats who love being swaddled like a grumpy burrito. Bonus points for realism if your cat is orange or white.
Caution: May cause excessive rolling and dramatic flopping.
Level of Dignity: Negative.

👽 3. The Alien Lifeform

Cats already act like they’re from another galaxy, so this one’s on-brand. Add sparkly antennae, silver booties, and watch your cat disappear under the couch for the rest of the night.
Level of Cosmic Vibes: 100%
Level of Costume Retention: 14 seconds.

👑 4. The Royal Feline

Let’s be honest: your cat already believes they’re royalty.
Why not make it official with a cape, scepter, and tiny crown that will be immediately swatted across the room?
Level of Accuracy: 10/10
Level of Compliance: LOL.

👻 Cat Costume Tips (a.k.a. How to Survive the Wrath of a Dressed-Up Cat)

  • Keep it lightweight and breathable. Your cat’s a diva, not a radiator.

  • Avoid anything that restricts movement (unless your Halloween goal is turning your cat into a loaf).

  • Start with small accessories like hats or bandanas – and slowly build up to the full taco suit.

  • Bribery works. A treat trail = costume compliance.

  • Take photos FAST. You’ve got a five-second window before your furry model vanishes.

👀 Spooky Kitty Trivia!

  • Black cats weren’t always spooky. In ancient Egypt, they were worshipped as symbols of good luck and protection. (Your cat still expects this treatment.)

  • The Guinness World Record for most costume changes by a cat in one minute is zero… because no cat would ever allow that nonsense.

  • The U.S. spends over $490 million on pet costumes each Halloween. Roughly 70% of those costumes are worn for one blurry Instagram photo and immediately shredded.
