40 Best Halloween Costumes for Cats That'll Both Delight and Frighten

New rule: every Halloween party should be required to include a cat dressed up as the disco ball.

I, for one, have always watched that Prison Mike episode of The Office and thought a cat would look really good in Michael Scott's purple bandanna. Haven't you?

Embrace your inner Daenerys Targaryen and be the true mother of dragons with this costume, complete with tiny little horns.

The wig is not included, but the detail on this cat-ified Wendy's apron makes the costume work on its own.

Keep your cat cozy while also transforming them into one of the most beloved characters from a galaxy far, far away with this sherpa hoodie.

The perfect costume for the kitties that love to draw blood.

I don't know if I would trust my cat to take care of me when I'm sick, but then again, I've never forced my furbaby to wear a nurse uniform with a little hat.

How cute is this little Target delivery uniform? Now, if only I could get my cat to get my packages for me...

This Ty collar tag is purrfect for the cat that hates wearing clothes, and the lazy cat parent looking for a quick and easy costume. It's a win-win.

To make it known that your cat's presence is a present.

Wednesday Halloween costumes are expected to be all the rage among humans this October, but cat owners might want to consider passing that idea onto their kitties. After all, Wednesday Addams is dark, vicious, judgmental, headstrong, and enjoys inflicting bodily harm on others. Sounds like a cat to me!

Uh oh, it looks like we've had another Jurassic Park breakout...

Simple costumes, like this crochet Cat in the Hat, are best if you want to avoid those pesky claws. Who knows, your cat might actually enjoy wearing this on their tiny head.

Does your cat feel like she’s made for stardom? Channel her inner Lion King with a lion's mane costume. A cute look for cats in the same color palette, this adorable mane (complete with ears!), will have your feline friend feeling like the mighty queen we all know her to be.

Best for extra squishy, thicc pets, this pizza costume is sure to delight even the grumpiest of cats. Slip the slice over their head and they’re ready for a delicious celebration.

A classic Halloween lewk, this witch costume can go in a few different directions: Add some tiny glasses, and your cat is Harry Potter. Throw on some weird scarves, and suddenly she’s a Sanderson sister worthy of Hocus Pocus watch parties. Add a tiny cauldron, and she’s a very literary Macbeth-ian witch.

With a hat, an outfit, and a swashbuckling claw, your furry friend will be a very convincing captain of the pirate ship. Which means you need to bury lil treats for them as treasure.

Wanna give the healthcare heroes some major props? With a smol stethoscope and medical kit, your cat pay homage to all the doctors out there doing the most.

Harry, is that you? All you Potterheads with cats have to dress your feline up like a Hogwarts student for Halloween at least once. It'd be—dare I say—disrespectful if you didn't?

Go vintage with a tried-and-true pumpkin costume for your kitty. Or, DIY some Starbucks swag onto the costume (a tiny cup! a cat-sized drink sleeve!) to take your cat from pumpkin to PSL.
