Suitical Recovery Suit® Cat

Washing instructions:

For longer usage, it is possible that the print of the Recovery Suit® and the label could fade over time. With the washing instructions below, this process can be delayed. Washing, maintaining and handling of delivered items always remains the responsibility of the customer.

Instructions:

• Always turn inside out for washing;
• Fasten all the press studs before washing;
• We recommend using a laundry bag;
• Wash the Recovery Suit® up to a maximum of 90ºC/194ºF;
• Never put the Recovery Suit® in the dryer! Hang it out and let it air dry;
• Do not iron directly over the print and never too hot;
• Do not use bleach or other chemicals to clean the Recovery Suit®.

Using bleach and other chemicals can cause irritations to your cat’s wound, surgical area, hotspots or more…!

TIP! Little (peeing) accidents can happen while wearing the Recovery Suit®. To ensure that your cat remains protected, two Recovery Suit® are often purchased. While one Recovery Suit® can be washed, the other can be worn. When your cat needs to wear the Recovery Suit® longer than a week, it’s always better to have a back-up Recovery Suit®!

LET'S MEASURE YOUR CAT!

We’re here to help you find the best size Recovery Suit® for your cat! To find the right size, measure the distance from the neck (collar) to the base of the tail, as explained in the instruction video, and fill in the required measurements in the size calculator below.

If your cat is somewhere between two sizes, we recommend choosing the smaller size. Please be aware that the amount of fur, weight, and body proportions (long back and short legs for example or a very broad chest compared to the rest of the body) of your pet might affect the size needed.

HOW TO PUT THE SUIT ON?

We know how important it is to be able to quickly dress and undress your cat, which is why our Recovery Suit® is made of soft and stretchy high-quality material. The Recovery Suit® has a snug fit to prevent your cat from wiggling out. It is important however to keep monitoring your cat if the snug fit isn’t too tight. Getting the Recovery Suit® on and off your cat is simple, so let’s take a look!

Step 1: Roll up the suit with the middle head opening in your hand. Make sure that the light blue inner layer is facing down. Insert your cat’s head through the opening.

Step 2: Followed by inserting one leg into the provided smaller leg opening and the other leg into the other remaining smaller opening.

Step 3: Now pull the Recovery Suit® over your cat’s body all the way to the back.

Step 4: The lower belly flaps must be pulled between the hind legs towards the upper part near the base of the tail.

Step 5: Secure the two flaps with the snaps/poppers. We advise to close all snaps/poppers to keep the suit perfectly in place. 

Step 6: Take a good look around the legs, neck and tail to see if there is enough room to move and breathe!

Because of the specially tailored opening at the back, for the majority of cats, you can leave the Recovery Suit® fully closed while the cat is using the litter box!

We recommend to check the opening at the back from time to time while wearing the Recovery Suit®.
