Cat Mittens or Boots? Opinion?

Me and Elsa spend most of out time downstairs.... and it is a Tile Floor. In the winter it gets cold and I notice that Elsa spends a lot of time standing/sitting on something other than the floor. I am considering a set what they are calling boots and would like some opinions, as I am not sure she would willing wear them... Even though I think it would be a battle getting them on the first few times... I think that she would find away to take them off in short order... especially being a Savannah.... Link Below, Advice or opinions?



She spends a lot of her Winter time sitting on her cat trees looking out and there is a carpeted floor mat in front of her favorite Bird/Squirrel/Racoon watching door.! But it is obvious that she spends a minimum of time on the cold tile floor.

I've only ever attempted boots on my beagle and he hated them, I cannot imagine any of my Savannahs tolerating them.

I'd more consider little spot rugs around the floor for her to use...

Great Idea... I have a Christmas Mat.... I am letting her try it for a few days... Initial results look promising! I think I can keep her feet on it better than I could keep footies on her feet... That was one concern was getting them on her in the first place and betting on how long she would keep them on...

I could see the putting on the boots being quite the scene, you'd want that on video for others' entertainment afterwards!

Hi John, I tried the said booties on my old rag doll (RIP) and he absolutely hated them, he wouldn't walk even a few steps in them. Scatter mats was the answer for him.

Thanks... So far, she is doing well on a rug I have (even though it is out of season LOL)... I think I am going to get her one of the better ones.
