Pros

• Fleece

  The materials is a standard fleece material for the inner pouch lining, which will keep it quite warm for the pet you are holding.

• Not Just Cats

  It is large enough to hold cats or small dogs, depending on the sweatshirt size you get.

• Good for Kittens

  When you have a small kitten that you cannot leave home alone, this particular sweatshirt is a nice alternative. Leaving it in the pocket allows you to take the cat with you on the go and let it sleep. You can also just keep it safe near your person if you have other cats from whom the new cat needs protection.

Cons

• No Drawstring

  It seems a great sweatshirt to wear when running errands or otherwise out and about, but without the ability to somewhat maintain the cats inside of the pouches, they can easily escape.

How It Works

You get a carrying pouch, a paw glove that goes over your thumb and protects the hand, in addition to fun cat ears. The strings which draw shut the hood are extra long with giant fluffy balls on the end presumably for the cat to play with. Called the built in snuggle pouch, the carrying pouch presumably keeps your hands free so that you can hold on to your little pet while reading, working, or watching television.

How it's Different from Competitors

Kitty Roo Sweatshirt is almost identical to the Megaroo sweatshirt which originated in Japan. In fact, Kitty Roo even has the ears on top of the hood the way Megaroo does. Difference being, Megaroo was designed as a costume sweatshirt, one which people wear as a costume to look like a kitty, and also hold a kitty. There is nothing decidedly different about these two. The Kitty Roo sweatshirt really has nothing that makes it stand out.

Alternatives

• Megaroo

  Megaroo hoodie design is nearly identical to others on the market, though it is the oldest design out there signaling that it was the premiere. Cotton blend, the sweatshirt has a fur lined pouch in which small pets can sit. Designed with paw prints on the ends and ears on the hood, this sweatshirt lets wearers dress up like small animals too. Said sweatshirt also has a small button area for the pouch so that you can safely keep your pet inside.
