What's in the Box

• Black cat jumpsuit with attached tail and white belly patch, white faux fur collar, wrist cuffs and ankle cuffs
• Cat ear headband with black-and-white ears

This Kids Black Cat Costume turns your child into a friendly tuxedo cat for Book Week, school animal days, or Halloween. The plush black jumpsuit has a white belly patch, faux fur collar, and fluffy white paw cuffs at wrists and ankles — plus a swishy black tail with a white tip.

The black fabric has a subtle shimmer finish that catches the light, while the white fur trim gives it a soft, storybook-character feel. The full-length jumpsuit zips up the back for easy on-and-off, and the structured cat ears sit on a comfortable headband. Relaxed fit means it goes on over regular clothes if the classroom is cold.

Perfect For

Book Week & Literature Days: A natural pick for Slinky Malinki, Hairy Maclary's Scarface Claw, Pete the Cat, or any storybook featuring a black cat character.

School Animal Dress-Up Days: Works for zoo-themed parades, animal alphabet days, or kindy character mornings — the tuxedo-cat look is instantly recognisable.

Halloween & Costume Parties: A friendly, non-scary option for trick-or-treating, family costume events, or themed birthday parties where your child wants to be an animal.

How to Wear It

Pair with black sneakers or ballet flats (not included) to complete the paws. Face paint is optional — a pink nose and whiskers add extra charm, but the costume works just as well without.

Parent FAQs

Q: What size should I order?

Check the size chart image for chest and height measurements. The jumpsuit runs relaxed through the torso with elasticized cuffs, so if your child is between sizes, go with their usual size.

Q: Can they wear this over regular clothes?

Yes — the plush fabric is roomy enough to layer over a long-sleeve top and leggings if it's a cold morning. The back zip makes it easy to get in and out.

Q: How do I wash this? Is the fabric durable?

Hand wash cold or gentle machine cycle, then air dry flat. The shimmer finish holds up well to one or two washes; avoid hot water to protect the faux fur trim.

Q: Is this suitable for a school Book Week parade?

Absolutely — pairs with any cat-themed storybook, from picture books to chapter books. The tuxedo-cat style is a classroom favourite and easy to recognise in photos.

Care: Hand wash cold, air dry. Avoid bleach to protect shimmer finish.
