    ThunderShirt for Cats

    The Thundershirt offers a gentle and constant pressure. This has a calming effect on most cats that are anxious or afraid. The swaddling effect has already been observed by tens of thousands of dog owners. The ThunderShirt can be a solution for cat owners when they have to visit the vet, as the cat will be relaxed when entering the cat carrier, and will not only remain calm throughout the journey, but also experience a reduction in stress and anxiety in general (e.g. fear of loud noises or fireworks).

    Instructions for putting the ThunderShirt on your cat

    • Place the ThunderShirt on your cat's back with the logo facing up. Attach the soft neck straps around the cat's chest. Close the Velcro straps and make sure you can fit 2 fingers between the chest and the shirt.
    • Fold the long flap under the cat's torso and secure it with the Velcro strap. Attach it so that the ThunderShirt fits securely and comfortably. Make sure you can still fit 2 fingers between the chest and the shirt.
    • Fold the top flap onto the cat's back, back onto the long flap and secure with the Velcro. Attach it in such a way that the ThunderShirt fits snugly.

    Please note: some cats might act or respond strangely at first, for example, not wanting to move (freezing) or falling (flopping) over. Do not worry, it's nothing to worry about and part of getting used to the pressure as cats are very sensitive. What can you do now? You can start again and put the shirt on very loosely and let the cat get used to it for 5 to 10 minutes. In the meantime, do something fun with the cat so that it feels comfortable. If this goes well you can use the shirt longer next time and increase the pressure slightly. If your cat refuses to move, remove the shirt and let it have a little more time between attempts (e.g. 1 per hour at first and if that does not work, 1 day). If it really does not work (try at least 4 times), then you can return it. The ThunderShirt is a product that guarantees satisfaction within 45 days. The packaging must be undamaged.

    Available in 3 sizes

    Measure the chest circumference of the cat (just behind the front legs)

    • Size S chest circumference: 22-31 cm (< 4 kg)
    • Size M chest circumference: 31-41 cm (4 to 6 kg)
    • Size L chest circumference: 41-58 cm (> 6 kg)

    In the manual can find instructions for putting the ThunderShirt on your cat.

    What if the ThunderShirt doesn't fit?

    The ThunderShirt can be removed from the packaging and held up next to your pet in order to check whether it fits. For hygiene reasons, the ThunderShirt cannot be returned if it has come into contact with your pet. If we find that the returned product is stained, worn, contains cat hair, smells or has been washed after use, we cannot return the product to you. In this event, it will be donated to a charity (local shelter). As we are often confronted with ThunderShirts that are returned in a less than new condition, we have to apply these rules for fitting and/or returning products.
