Product Description
Medical Shirt Cat
This medical shirt for cats prevents scratching, licking, and biting of open wounds. It provides a great alternative to the often-stressful protective collar (cone). It can be used for post-operative protection, such as after sterilisation. It is also suitable for supporting scratch wounds and skin diseases. The design of the shirt is tailored to the cat's body, ensuring a comfortable fit. There is additional space at the belly area, allowing proper ventilation of surgical wounds in that location. This helps prevent infection of the surgical wound.
The fabric is comfortable and flexible, providing maximum freedom of movement for your cat. The shirt is easy to put on and take off. The breathable fabric protects against chafing and infection. With the use of snap buttons, you can quickly open and close the shirt. This romper allows your cat to use the litter box.

What if the medical shirt does not fit the cat?
To check if the medical shirt fits your cat, you may take it out of the packaging and hold it next to your pet. This way, you can verify if it fits. Due to hygiene reasons, you are not allowed to return the shirt if it has come into contact with your pet. If upon return, we find that the product is stained, worn, has hair on it, smells dirty, or has been washed, it will not be sent back to you. Instead, it will be donated to a local shelter for a good cause.
