## Overview

The MPS Medical Pet Shirt for cats is a veterinarian-recommended, full-body recovery suit designed to protect wounds, seams, and skin irritations without the stress of traditional cones. Made from a breathable, stretchy cotton-lycra blend, it fits snugly to your cat’s body shape, allowing freedom of movement and easy litter box access. Machine washable and reusable, this vibrant red shirt offers a hygienic, comfortable, and effective post-surgery solution that keeps your feline friend happy and healing faster.

## Description

Product Description The Medical Pet Shirt for cats is a professional alternative to the medical cone. It protects your cat optimally on the torso after surgery for wounds, seams, allergies, hotspots and skin problems. Excessive licking can cause your cat to get irritation marks on the skin that can begin to infect your cat. In addition, excessive licking can give a cat a lot of hairballs. So it is important to offer a good solution. The protective Medical Pet Shirt covers and protects the problem area against licking, biting and/or scratching instead of covering the pet’s entire head. By restricting the pet’s head with a cone sounds are amplified, movement is restricted, and they will bump into furniture. This often results in more stress. That is why we developed an animal-friendly alternative: the Medical Pet Shirts products! To ensure that your cat remains protected, two MPS-Shirts are often purchased. While one shirt can be washed, the other can be worn. When your cat needs to wear the MPS-Medical Pet Shirt longer than a week, it’s always better to have a back-up shirt! Important Sizing Information: Measure the distance from the collar to the base of the tail of your cat: 40 - 44 cm / 15.7 - 17.3" for size XS. Directions Put your cat's head through the opening, then one leg into the smaller leg opening provided and the other leg into the other remaining smaller opening. Now pull the shirt over your cat's body to the back. Fasten the two flaps with the press studs. Take a good look at the legs, neck and tail to see if there is enough room to move and breathe. P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); Safety Warning Consult your veterinarian if you want to use this product for medicinal purposes. Your veterinarian can recommend appropriate treatment. Observe your pet regularly to ensure that the product is not too tight. Always have a responsible adult supervise your pet while using this product. However, please contact your veterinarian if your pet's behaviour changes or if your pet has excessive licking/chewing habits.

Review: Brilliant Product - Photo three to show the start of her issue, it got far worse After an awful injury our cat was put onto an oral painkiller for a week. This causes her to severely itch which lead to her over grooming. It started with bald patches but quickly led to her licking at her skin till it was raw! I tried so many versions of these cat suits but they all attached with Velcro and my tiny little girl just worked her way out of them! I then found this suit, I took the smallest size they had as she is tiny! You can see in the one photo she is sitting next to her now grown kitten, she is really small so wiggles out of everything. This suit however has not come off and not opened! It fits her like a glove and she can now not lick at her torso so it will give her skin a chance to heal and her hair a chance to grow back! It’s easy to open and roll up so I can do little salt water wipes if and when needed. I can not recommend this suit enough even Willow has now got used to it after only 2 days. My only wish is I’d found it sooner and that there was an desertcart prime next day delivery option 10/10 from me
Review: The best, most comfortable post-surgery vest you can get for this price range - This is definitely the best post-surgery vest you can find on the market. We had this two years ago for our second cat’s spay, it was purchased directly through our vet! Amazing product. Unfortunately, our vet has stopped supplying them now that we’ve had our third cat spayed. I looked up the vest on veterinarian websites and then located it on desertcart - it’s the real product! Our cat was spayed yesterday. We originally put her in a cheap pink surgery vest off of desertcart that a friend had lent us. In the other vest, she was so unhappy, the fit was poor, she was struggling to walk and falling over. She kept meowing and yowling and was just miserable. I quickly went online and found this one. First of all, the fastenings are so much better. This has two holes for the front limbs, but the back ones don’t have leg holes. The popper fastenings can be adjusted around their back limbs. It also means that if necessary, you can leave the fastenings undone and the vest still covers the wound! In comparison - the cheap pink one had only leg holes and fastened with Velcro at the top, the holes for the back legs made it hard for her to move. Whereas, she can move around so much better in this product. Shes no longer walking like she’s been impaled and seems much brighter in herself, the mobility is amazing for the size. She was clearly uncomfortable in the cheap one, but the quality different for this product is amazing. It’s clearly superior. The fabric is soft and stretchy, yet clearly strong and well made. It’s also very breathable and less trapping. The colour is bright and the overall detailing and composure is attractive. Another point is the neck hole. In this one, the neck hole has a turtle neck, that can be rolled outwards to extend to cover more or less of the neck, allowing it to be flexibly adjusted for comfort. In comparison, the cheap pink desertcart one seemed to pull uncomfortably at the base of her neck and stretch when she laid down. The fit of this one overall is so much more built to your cats body. It looks like she’s wearing cosy pyjamas that fit her snugly but not tight. The fabric is not stretched at any point, meaning it’s not putting pressure on any areas (in comparison, the cheap one clearly stretched a lot around the legs and neck when changing position and was uncomfortable looking). I would recommend this product to anyone who wants a post surgery vest for their cat. Veterinarians use it too. If we get another cat, we’ll either be using this one - or buying it again (if we lose it like we lost the last one) because it clearly helps them post surgery to be more comfortable, and when you’ve had major surgery the last thing you want is an uncomfortably garment stretching and pulling at your fur. It’s also a reasonable price in my opinion. For the high quality product, £15-20 is a great price to pay, and I would probably have paid more. The cheap, bad quality one was only around £5-£10 cheaper (depending on the size and type), and the different in comfort and happiness to my cat is clearly astounding.

## Features

- The MPS-Medical Pet Shirt can stay fully closed on most cats when using the litter box because of the specially designed opening at the rear.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I think this was a good buy. It's good quality and serves the purpose
*by H***D on 11 December 2014*

I'm giving this 5 stars although my cat would give a lower rating. I think this was a good buy. It's good quality and serves the purpose. It's well worth the money. The reason I bought it was because after getting a kitten as a companion for my cat Sammy a Bromance developed. He and Marley are utterly in love with each other. They go everywhere together. 24/7 they are either snuggling, play fighting, sitting together, calling for each other or grooming each other But this is where the problem lies. Sammy is obsessed with licking Marley to the point of leaving raw patches on his skin and every time they started to heal and scab over he would lick it raw again. I had to bandage him up to protect his skin but he felt restricted so decided to get him some kind of T-shirt then I came across the Medical jacket. It worked well and Marley began to heal. He wasn't too impressed having to wear this at first but dud get used to it but unfortunately Sammy then started to obsess with the top of his head so I had to make protective head wear out of tights with holes for his ears and face. Marley just encourages Sammy to lick him raw. He is also obsessed with licking Sammy. The jacket fits both of them and is not restrictive and will certainly come in handy if they ever have stitches or get skin complaints. It is good because even when done up they can still freely go to the toilet. I chose to roll it up like a little T shirt to give him more feeling of freedom. A worthwhile buy should something like this be needed for your cat.
