PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- Black cat ears headband with white inner-ear detail
- Black bow tie with velcro fastening
- Black cat tail (26cm) with elastic band for pinning
This Kids Black Cat Costume Accessory Set turns any black outfit you already own into a complete cat costume in under 2 minutes. The ears sit secure on a standard headband, the bow tie velcros around the neck (no fumbling with clips), and the tail pins to the back of leggings or a skirt.
The ears have crisp white inner detailing that shows up in photos, and the tail is just the right length for kindy-to-Year-6 kids - long enough to swish, short enough not to trip over. Pairs with black leggings, a black t-shirt, or any dark clothing you have at home.
Perfect For
Book Week & Storybook Days: A natural pick for Slinky Malinki, The Cat in the Hat's companion cat, Splat the Cat, or any illustrated black cat from picture books your child's reading.
School Concerts & Nativity Plays: Teachers love this one for quick classroom costume changes - animal parades, "Who Is the Beast?" performances, or any show needing a cat character.
Casual Dress-Up & Halloween: Keep this set in the dress-up box for spontaneous play, Halloween trick-or-treating, or animal-themed birthday parties.
How to Wear It
Pair with black leggings and a black long-sleeve top (the outfit's not included, but you probably own it already). Add simple face paint - three whiskers on each cheek and a pink nose dot - and you're done. The tail pins to the waistband with a safety pin (you'll need to supply that).
Parent FAQs
Q: Does this come with the black outfit shown in the photos?
No - the black leotard/clothing is just styling to show the look. You receive the 3 accessories only (ears, bow, tail). Pair with black clothes you already have at home.
Q: How does the tail attach?
The tail has a black elastic band sewn to the top. You'll need a safety pin (not included) to pin the elastic to the back waistband of your child's pants or skirt. Takes 10 seconds.
Q: Will the headband fit my 5-year-old? My 10-year-old?
Yes to both - it's a standard flexible headband that adjusts to most kids' head sizes from kindy through primary school. The velcro bow tie is also adjustable (fits neck circumferences from toddler to tween).
Q: Can they wear this for a full school day without discomfort?
Absolutely. The headband is lightweight (won't give them a headache), the bow tie breathes (it's fabric, not stiff plastic), and the tail stays put once pinned. We've seen kids wear this through 6-hour Book Week parades without complaint.
Care: Spot clean with damp cloth. Store flat to keep ears from bending.
