Padding into the classroom on Book Week morning as a sleek black cat - hood up, ears perked, tail swishing behind them. This Kids Black Cat Costume is a full-body onesie in soft black velour with a fluffy plush hood, stand-up cat ears with grey inner detailing, and an attached tail that trails behind as they prowl around. The paw gloves feature white paw-pad appliqués (three toes plus one central pad) for that perfect feline finish.

What's in the Box

• Black hooded onesie with attached tail and cat ears
• Black plush gloves with white paw pad details
• Black foot covers

Perfect for Book Week (pairs with any storybook cat character - Slinky Malinki, Mog, The Striped Hat Storybook, Pete the Cat), animal-themed school days, Halloween, kindy photo day, or nativity play creatures. Works beautifully as part of a family costume set too - the last photo shows mum and dad versions available separately.

Parent FAQs

What size should I order?

This onesie runs true to size with elastic at the wrists and ankles for flex. The hood is roomy enough to fit over most hairstyles, and the back zipper makes it easy to get on and off without a wrestling match. If your child is between sizes or tall for their age, we'd suggest sizing up - the elastic cuffs will adjust.

Can they wear this over regular clothes?

Absolutely. The onesie goes on over a t-shirt and leggings or tights, which is handy if the classroom is cold or you're heading to an outdoor Book Week parade. The back zipper runs from neck to lower back so it's easy to slip on without pulling over the head.

Care: Hand wash in cold water or gentle machine cycle, air dry. Face paint shown in photos not included - grab some washable face paint from your local craft shop to add whiskers and a nose.
