Cats in tights (Warning not all "sweet" pictures of cats in tights, leave if under 18)

Now I know a lot of tights wearers are cat lovers.

But it appears that some of them have taken to dressing their cats in tights.

In an increasingly popular Tumblr featuring felines in tights -- aptly named “Meowfit of the Day” -- a cat named Gucci is seen dressed in a variety of coloured tights, shoes and socks.  Now how many times do I have to say this: tights/pantyhose are for people not animals.

That's right you wear the tights.

Gucci’s owner, Katja Wulff, and her boyfriend, Dan, live in Gothenburg in Sweden. Speaking to Metro UK, the couple says Gucci’s brothers, Iggy and Zappa, won’t put up with playing dress-up; only 16-year-old Gucci will don leggings and live up to his name.  Well that's something at least; only one cat is being treated in  a degrading and un-natural way.  Still the point remains tights are for humans not cats.

Black tights, white cat, but the tights are not on the cat!

The grey feline is “like a blob that we can place everywhere we want, and she just stays put and purrs,” Wulff says of Gucci, adding that the couple has been dressing up the cat for quite some time. The tights are part of Gucci’s evolving style, the owners say.  Perhaps rather than dressing Gucci up it would be kinder to give Gucci some exercise - chasing mice, killing birds, the kind of thing Evolution intended?

People can get fit wearing tights - why not look good whilst exercising?  Cats can't

“The tights thing was just another thing we wanted to try. And Gucci didn’t mind at all,” Wulff said. “[The blog] seems that it has put a smile on many people’s faces, and that’s really fun for us to see.”  Excuse me how do you know he doesn't mind?  OK, it makes lots of people happy.  Happy is good.  Nice utilitarian argument.  But do we humiliate other humans to make people happy?  (Errrr, come to think of it we do its called the "X-Factor" and "Britain's got talent").  Just maybe Ms Wulff should wear the tights herself to spread some happiness.

This guy is enjoying girls in tights and I think the first girl is too

Cum on guys doesn't this give you more pleasure than a cat in tights?

And yes girls can like girls in tights too.

One last thought about Gucci, at least in this photo he is imitating one of this big cat brothers!

Still I think leopard print looks better on people.

Cat lover

As do boots.

Sorry, Gucci these boots look much more stylish that yours.  And Ms Wulff, please don't try giving Gucci ear rings.

OK I think it is cruel to to put your cat in tights.  But what about putting pussy in pantyhose?

Won't poor pussy get hot and sweaty and risk nylon burns?

Follow Miranda Kerr's Example

Miranda Kerr was seen in LAX airport wearing a short skirt and opaque tights.  Why not follow her example and show off your legs in a nice pair of opaques?

Miranda Kerr's marriage may be over but she's not wallowing or sitting on the sofa all day in baggy jogging bottoms and stained jumper like the rest of us.  Perhaps a nice pair of opaques on your legs does cheer you up - especially if combined with an expensive pair of heels purchased on on your ex's credit card.

Men - who needs em?

Give me the shoes every time.

Looking like a girl

So Mohammed Ahmed Mohamed made his escape by dressing as a woman.

No that's not dressing as woman - that's a man in tights

Now that's dressing as a woman

And that is dressing as a woman too, probably because she is a woman.

Now as I was saying Mohammed Ahmed Mohamed made his escape by dressing as a woman.  I don't have anything against men dressing as women.  But he really should have made an effort.  It can be hard dressing as a woman, even when you are a woman.  Hot, sweaty, itchy tights, balancing on high heals.  Why should Mr Mohamed be able to do it just by throwing a sheet over himself?

Now I don't even mind men dressing as women to escape "justice".  In Mr Mohamed's case he wasn't even escaping from justice, since he hadn't been tried by twelve of his peers.  But come on Ahmed, play fair at least try to look like a woman so the great British policeman has a chance of working out that you are not a woman.  (Hiding under a sheet is jolly un-sporting)

Even police intelligence could tell these girls are girls

Oh no she's wearing jeans; that could cause confusion

Hopefully the Brighton Bobby's Equality and Diversity training lets him/her know that these girls are politically if not biologically girls

Now I'd not objecting to women dressing in burkas.  I'm certainly not ban the burka.  (Although it would be nice to see the Saudi police be as liberal over short skirts).  I just think that if you are going to dress as a woman you should put up with the hassle of dressing as a woman.

Yes, she definitely is a woman

Bondage starts with .... tights?

I read in the October issue of Marie-Claire that bright girls at top US universities are getting into bondage.  Two things struck me:

1. These girls claimed to be feminists.  When has being a feminist included being gagged, tied up, led on a chain, fed from a dog bowl and forced to give a blow job?

2. There was no mention of tights.  It appears me that tights are a form of "light" bondage we all take for granted.  How is having over half your body covered with synthetic fabric that is hot, itchy and generally uncomfortable not bondage?  Oh and some weird kinky guys get hyper turned on by tights - just like some weird kinky guys get turned on  by other bondage gear.

Misery of tights?

So if bondage is now "in".  Could this make tights in, and where will your bondage journey in tights take you:

... to tight shorts imprisoning your f*nny under knickers, tights and well shorts?

.... to higher heels than you are used to?

....to really high heels?

..to becoming a kitchen maid always kept in her stocking feet?  (Love the idea of a reinforced heel, by the way, seems to be found in Eastern European tights)

...to heavy bondage with ropes and gaps and stuff ? (stuff not snuff btw)

Bondage can even be a social activity, but it is difficult to have a good gossip, ....

.... and bondage may just mean an encounter with some interesting furniture. (Tights as a gag - nice touch)

If you are feeling a bit crazy bondage will keep you in check better than Prozac. My inner fashionista wants a pair of seamed tights with reinforced heels.  My inner geek loves the engineering of straitjackets and manacles.

Of course there are some kind of bondage you won't want to try.

Bet you can still be a feminist and be put in a cage.  (At least they let them keep their shoes).

Are tights an item of bondage clothing?  Answer my latest poll and/or leave a comment.

Did tights help Brooks get Coulson?

So Rebeka Brooks had a six year affair with Andy Coulson.  Did flashing her legs in tights at the now defunct News of the World help?

Power dressing with boots

Girls, should we all wear tights at work to get our man?

A little over the top?

Better

But the truth is girls, that the great aphrodisiac was probably her power not her tights.  And of course some girls have to wear tights as part of their uniform and that isn't so much fun.

Hot, sweaty, feet hurt, tights and heels, you can keep them - even with sex appeal

Still, if you have to dress in a suit you might as well go for tights and skirt, rather than the pretending to be a guy trouser suit.

But remember whether working at home or at work in tights, you are wearing for you not him.

Gala Snogging

Natasha Bedingfield had a new best female friend in the form of 80s icon Carly Simon when they attended a star-studded bash together on Wednesday. The singers shared a kiss with each other before holding hands while posing on the blue carpet at the Oceana's Partners Award Gala in Beverly Hills. 

Now I'm all for girls snogging girl.  Not being adverse to snogging another girl myself.  Well done for Ms Simon for getting a younger model too.

So girls follow Ms Simon's example.  Put on boots (and tights of course) and have a good snog.

Go on!

Also at the Award Gala was Melanie Griffith (56).   

Melanie's fashion sense was criticized  "Melanie wore a pretty red cocktail dress, she ruined the look by pairing it with flesh coloured tights and a frumpy cardigan."

Harsh I think.  I like flesh and similar coloured tights.

Halloween

Complete your Halloween outfit with a nice pair of tights.

You might only get some kinky Halloween fun:
