Product Overview
A pet standing costume is the one outfit that gets a reaction every single time. Instead of a plain coat, this dress-up costume gives your dog or cat a stuffed upper body with a pair of little arms, so your pet appears to be standing upright as a tiny character — a pirate, an astronaut, a police officer, a bat and eight more. It is a long-sleeve costume with a matching headpiece on an elastic strap, sized S to XL, and it suits both dogs and cats. Choose your style, choose your size, and you have a Halloween costume, a birthday gag and a photo shoot in one box.
Why You'll Love It
- Eleven character styles to pick from, so you are not wearing the same costume as everyone else at the party.
- The stuffed body and arms create the standing illusion — this is the effect that makes the photos.
- Four sizes with published chest and neck measurements, so you can fit it properly before you order.
- Ties on rather than pulling over the head, which most cats and nervous dogs tolerate far better.
- Works for cats and dogs alike, from small breeds up to medium.
- Soft cotton-blend fabric against your pet's skin, not stiff costume plastic.

Size Chart
Measure your pet with a soft tape before ordering. Chest girth is the widest point just behind the front legs; neck girth is where a collar sits.
| Size |
Chest girth |
Neck girth |
| S |
28–38 cm (11.0–15.0 in) |
20–25 cm (7.9–9.8 in) |
| M |
38–45 cm (15.0–17.7 in) |
25–28 cm (9.8–11.0 in) |

Measurements are taken by hand, so allow 1–2 cm either way. If your pet falls between two sizes, order the larger one.
Package Includes
1 × costume outfit with the stuffed body and arms, and 1 × matching headpiece on an elastic strap.
The supplier describes this as a three-piece set and shows hand-held props with some of the styles, but it does not itemise the contents style by style. Treat the outfit and the headpiece as what you are guaranteed to receive, and any prop shown in a style photo as a bonus rather than a promise.
Important Information
- This is a novelty costume, not clothing for warmth or protection. It is meant for parties, photos and short indoor wear.
-
Never leave your pet unsupervised in the costume. The stuffed arms and headpiece strap can snag on furniture, and a pet left alone can work them loose.
- Take it off if your pet freezes, tucks its tail, tries to back out of it, or stops moving normally. Some cats and dogs simply will not wear a costume, and that is worth respecting.
- Check the elastic head strap is snug but never tight — you should slide two fingers underneath comfortably.
- The costume covers the shoulders and back. Do not clip a lead to it; use your pet's normal collar or harness.
- The supplier does not publish washing instructions. For a stuffed cotton-blend costume like this, spot-clean with a damp cloth and air dry rather than machine washing.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right size? Measure your pet's chest girth just behind the front legs and its neck where a collar sits, then match both against the chart above. Breed is not a reliable guide. If you land between two sizes, size up.
Will it fit a cat? Yes — the supplier lists this for cats as well as dogs, and size S starts at a 28 cm chest, which covers most adult cats. Measure to be sure.
Does every style come with a prop? The photos show hand-held props with several styles, but the supplier does not confirm which styles include one. What is confirmed in every box is the outfit and the headpiece.
How does it stay on? Two ties secure the outfit, and the headpiece has its own elastic strap. Nothing goes over the head as a solid piece, which is why it suits pets that dislike being dressed.
Can my pet wear it outdoors? For a walk to a party or a photo in the garden, yes. It is not weatherproof and gives no warmth, so it is not a substitute for a coat.
How do I clean it? The supplier gives no care instructions. Because the body and arms are stuffed, spot-clean with a damp cloth and let it air dry — a washing machine will flatten the padding that creates the standing effect.
