Suitical Recovery Suit for Cats

Ok I really didn’t expect it to fit well or help but so far it’s working pretty well. I was worried that there would be a mess when my cat used the bathroom since her stomach has been upset from the antibiotics but so far the back has stayed clean (despite a diarrhea episode). My cat had drains in her side for an abscess so I waited until those were out before trying this, I did not want any drainage to be trapped next to the open site. It’s day two with it and she walk very funny but it definitely seems to keep her from bothering her sutures. I also like that it keeps her nakey side warm and I don’t worry about messing with her stitches when she tries to snuggle.

I got this for my kitten after she got spayed because she could get her e collar off in about 10 seconds no matter what I did. This worked great for about a week. The first week she was in it, she was calmer and could not reach to lick her stitches. She could move around and use the litter box with it on just fine. The fabric was soft and stood up to her biting, licking, and scratching. However, after about a week of having it on, she was able to get out of it. I would recommend it, I just think my kitten is very determined to get free. It gave me peace of mind and allowed me to sleep and work without worry, so overall I think it was worth it.

I bought this to use on my cat after abdominal surgery. I had him wear the cone exclusively for the first week, then switched to the recovery suit during the days after. He did have to be watched because he did manage to get his arms out of the holes and through the neck hole, then peel the rest off a few times. However, the size chart is accurate and the suit fit him well. I just have a determined cat :) He did wet it using the litter box a couple of times, and I felt the the pieces that went between his back lets were a bit to wide making it somewhat uncomfortable to walk. Overall, I was very pleased with suit as it allowed him to eat more easily and groom his face and legs which are not I bought this to use on my cat after abdominal surgery.

Thank goodness I ordered this a few days before Ruby's spaying; the "cone of shame" she wore from the clinic and while waiting for the arrival of the Suitical was a nightmare. I didn't sleep for 36 hours. The suit is amazing! She got used to it pretty quickly and I can't imagine going through her two-week healing process without it. I never once found poop or pee on it, go figure. So well made, love the material. Great product!

Absolutely love this onesie! MS P did not like her cone at ALL! She pulled her stitches the day after surgery and had to get staples and thecine of shame. Two days of that was enough! Chewy delivered it in one day. After an initial wobbly time, she totally settled into wearing this. (I tried to add a mini video but wouldn't let me) Love this site and their products!

My genet (think cat meets ferret meets raccoon) had surgery and came home with stitches along her abdomen. No matter what I tried (three different types of cones, a wrap around bandage, and cat sweaters) she was able to expose her stitches and mess with them. Then one of the techs said she found this impossible for her dog to get out of, so I figured I’d give it a try. Ginny’s body isn’t typical of a cat, but I went with xxs size and it worked like a charm! I totally owe this suit to my genet’s recovery (well outside of my amazing vet’s care) and 100% recommend it.

Spaying an older kitten is always a challenge as they are much more independent and this suit provides the perfect answer for our situation. I think that it is time to do away with the cone of shame and utilize these more often as they cause far less stress on the animal and their human companions.

After 2 days of my poor kitty bumping into EVERY wall with her cone (she was spayed), and 3 nights of her sticking it in my face at bedtime while it was wet and smelled like cat food from it getting in the bowls.... I put this on her and not only did it eliminate the 10 million inconveniences of the cone, but it kept her calm and not trying to jump on everything! My only complaint & reason for not giving it all 5 stars is that the next area was a little tighter than I liked & I felt like the shoulder part could have been up a smidge higher (I went by the measurements).

Just a couple days before I brought my cat to be spayed, I decided to order the suit so that she would still be able to go about her normal routine for the most part, and while I expected it to arrive a day or two after the surgery, it literally arrived the next day! Not to mention, it is so easy to dress her in it, and she couldn't love it more.

This suit works very well, my kittens were able to eat, drink and use the litter box with no problem. Was so more convenient than the cone of shame. The only negative I can say is that it was delivered 3 days later than expected so order early. My vet put them on the kittens right after surgery and all the staff loved how they looked and how practical they are.
