It’s always fun to get yourself something new to wear, but I’d argue that it’s even more delightful to pick up a new garment for your pet.
Tuxedo cats don’t necessarily need any dressing up, as their stunning coats already have them looking quite dapper and formal. But in the case of one handsome Tuxedo cat named Sir Arthur, his family couldn’t resist elevating his already elegant look.
In an adorable TikTok clip, we meet this regal little fella who has a new robe fit for a king. Take a look!
“Behold! Sir Arther in his new royal robe,” the kitty’s family captioned the video.

While we think Sir Arthur looks fantastic, he doesn’t look thrilled about this new robe, does he? Perhaps that black-and-white pattern reminds him of a Dalmatian? Or maybe he’s thinking, “I’m already wearing a fur coat, I don’t need this heavy thing!”

His royal subjects, aka his viewers, love his new frock.
“All hail the king!!!! 👑,” one wrote.
“He needs a crown ❤,” another commented.
We agree… but don’t tell Sir Arthur!

“I don’t believe in kings, but for him I make an exception. I believe his rule will be just,” another fan noted.
How Do You Convince Pets To Wear Costumes?
As we’ve established, Sir Arthur’s expression is giving subtle, “Get this thing off me!” vibes. As someone who loves dressing up cats for Halloween, I can say that getting a pet to put on an outfit can be a bit of a challenge, but there are ways to make it easier on all parties.
First, let your pet see and sniff the outfit. Second, proceed slowly. If they resist, don’t force it. Third, pair the outfit with some treats. By now, my pets understand that if they play along, it’ll only be for a quick photo op, and they’ll be rewarded for it.
This could work as a Halloween costume for Sir Arthur, as one fan thinks he resembles a celebrity.
“He looks like my beloved Freddie Mercury 😂, I LOVE IT!!! 😻😻😻❤,” this viewer noted.
Either way, we hope Sir Arthur knows he’s brought lots of joy to everyone who’s seen his new look!
