No, not funny to me, cats are beautiful creatures, they don't need to look like clowns to entertain sad humans. It's not 'cool' but neither would it be 'cruel' just ... don't!

Re: Cool or Cruel?


Dogs don't seem t mind "dressing up", but cats hate it! The are far too dignified to enjoy being made fools of.

Re: Cool or Cruel?


Are the cats bothered by it, well, just look at them. They obviously HATE being dressed up like a doll. Is it being done to in any way benefit the cat? I can't see how. Therefore, its cruelty by my estimation.

Re: Cool or Cruel?


Trust me to be the odd one out, but not sure I would class it as cruel, I suppose to me it would depend on what was leading up to the pictures been taken.
Not for me dressing up anything a dog or a cat or an elephant. But don't consider it cruel in itself. Not cool but not not cruel.....bit of a sado behind the camera maybe.
