Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

These Cuddly Cat Capes Will Keep You Adorably Warm

— January 4, 2013 — Life-Stages
Stay warm during winter with this cuddly cat cape by Japanese product manufacturer Kraso. The “cat on the back” blanket is designed to retain optimal body heat with the use of microfibers and cuddles.

The cat cape comes in three different fur shades and even feature adorably detailed little paws, ears and tail. They also have a pocket, which can be used to store important cat necessities like toys and cat nip. These cat cape blankies are certainly ideal for the lone wolf who has no one to cuddle with during the cold winter months—after all, lone wolves need cuddles too.

So take the monkey off your back caused by winter blues and put on a warm and cuddly cat instead.
