A Little White Kitten Wore Reindeer Antlers Like She Meant It
The antlers are a little crooked, and the white kitten wears them with perfect confidence. She sits on a patch of snowy porch, her fur as white as the snow, her ears tucked under the headband and her pink nose pointed to the side as if she is being asked to pose. A frosted walkway leads away behind her, a few wreaths decorate the nearby doors and the afternoon light is soft and gray.
A kitten in antlers is cute, but costumes should be brief and comfortable. Many cats dislike things on their heads, so introduce the antlers gradually, reward calm behavior with a treat and take them off as soon as she paws at them or flattens her ears. Watch that elastic is loose and nothing can be chewed off and swallowed. White cats with blue or mismatched eyes can sometimes have hearing difficulties, so ask your vet to check if you ever wonder. Outdoor time on a cold, snowy porch should be very short for a kitten, and a quick warm-up inside is a good idea afterward.
The reindeer outfit may not last, but the picture sure will. A small white cat in antlers is one of the sweeter sights of the season, and she wears it better than anyone, and nobody has the heart to ask her to take them off just yet.
