Cat Purses
Flipping through the pages of any fashion magazine, it’s not hard to find celebrities showing off their tiny pets in one very cute way – carried in a luxury designer handbag. The top names - like Louis Vuitton, Prada, Chanel or Ralph Lauren have all incorporated pet carry-ons into their designer collections. Ever since Paris Hilton’s Chihuahua, Tinkerbell, was photographed in a LV pooch purse, pet-related totes are the new must-have accessory. To the horror of animal rights activists, precious pets have literally become fashion accessories.
Celebrities like Paris Hilton, Christina Aguilera and Hilary Duff weren’t the first female icons to carry their best friends in style. In fact, the image of Cleopatra holding her Mau (Egyptian name for cat) in her arms is said to symbolically express her beauty and wild power. Cats are small, soft, naughty, cuddly, lithe and quiet. Almost all cats like crawling into card boxes, suitcases or even paper bags, so putting a cat in a carrier is normally much easier and comfortable for the pet, then it is for a dog. Cat purses are like dog purses, but designed especially for cat-lovers to carry their kitties around conveniently while shopping, visiting friends or traveling.
Cat carrier purses are made of non-leather material in order to prevent paw damage. Since cats have tiny bone structures, the purse isn’t as roomy as a dog purse. Cat handbags have been created in shoulder bag designs, backpacks and totes. Please avoid zipper openings when choosing a pet tote for your cat - a zipper can harm your pet’s skin if it rubs against them. A zipper can also catch their fur and tear it out.
Many animal rights organizations, such as PETA, believe that taking away an animals right to walk, jump and wander around freely is cruel. If you are an animal activist you can still pledge your love for your kitty without placing them in a bag. Why not carry a purse or handbag stitched or silk-screened with an image of your favorite breed of cat? If you don’t like the idea of carrying a photographic essay on your shoulder, you can opt for a stylized kitty. Here are the most stylish kitty purses around:
