A Silver Kitten Showed Up on the Doorstep as a Tiny Pumpkin

AI imagesilver tabby kittenhalloweenpumpkin costume

Wide green eyes peer out of a soft orange pumpkin costume with a tiny green stem on top. A silver tabby kitten sits on a concrete step beside a blue door, with the striped face and little white chin framed by the hood. A mum plant, a green throw and a pair of shoes on a mat sit in the background, making the entryway feel like a real family's front step.

American Shorthairs are known for being adaptable, healthy-looking cats with friendly, easygoing personalities. Kittens are playful and tend to get along with children and other pets when properly introduced. Because they're so curious, they appreciate toys and climbing spots and enjoy being part of family activity. Their short, dense coat needs only a weekly brushing.

Costumes should always be a choice for the cat. A good test is to let the kitten wear the outfit for just a minute, offer a treat and watch her body language. If she freezes, flattens her ears or tries to wriggle away, take it off. A festive bandana or just a pumpkin to sit beside can be a gentler way to join the holiday.

This pumpkin looks very pleased with herself. Whether or not the costume lasts, the photo will. Doorsteps rarely have a better guest, and the front door is lucky to have her.
