Nurse Kitty

October 11, 2016 By: Summer Samba40 Comments

somali cat in nurse's costume

I really did pose in a lot of outfits a few weeks ago! But I’ve been saving my favorite for last. There was a nurse kitty uniform for me to try on. Of course, I am a therapy cat, so I’m kind of a nurse kitty already. But I hear you need lots more education to get a nursing degree. A therapy cat certification won’t cut it.

There was only one problem with the outfit, other than my lack of degree: the cap. I didn’t mind wearing the cap, but my ears just did not look right.

My human tucked my ears into the cap to see if it worked better, and it did! The cap was big enough to accommodate my ears without being uncomfortable. I was really happy with it this way.

Do you like this pose? I tried to capture just the right mood.

The back is really cool too!

And here is a view from the side. I just really think this outfit suits me.

I am a natural when it comes to nursing. Too bad I can’t wear this on my therapy visits.

    This outfit is adorable. It is so much more than a costume because if your therapy visits. You are truly a kitty nurse. That over the shoulder shot is stunning

    That is the cutest outfit ever! Models have portfolios. Maybe you could have a photo album of you in your dresses, to take with you on therapy visits. The patients would love to see it.

    Totally cute. That is a terrific outfit, and we agree…ears inside the cap. As nurses had to have their hair off their neck back in the days when they still wore caps, the inside ears make you look like a bona fide nurse cat.

    That is right up petcretary’s alley…as she was an RN back in her single days…but well, she is working as a nurse’s aide now (Too many years from graduation to getting back to work…1975 is eons ago…and she didn’t work at all for 20 years.)
    Anypaws, you really know how to wear a cap:)
    Most nurses don’t wear them at all anymore, MOL!

    You are welcome to join our team at the nursing home where petcretary works!

    That is an absolutely fabulous outfit, Summer! you look great in it, ears tucked in was obviously the right choice and I’m glad it was comfy for you.

    You’d make anyone feel better just by showing up.

    Summer, you are the perfect nurse! The ancient Egyptians considered cats to be guardians, nurturers, and protectors, so I think you have it just right. My kitties try to take care of me and I have had some wonderful “nurse kitties” in my life. Every day, I miss the ones who have crossed ‘The Bridge’.

    Summer! You would just totally completely wow them at the hospitals if only you could wear your outfit. You have never looked cuter and the back is perfect! I love the hat! I like it Yoda style too. Maybe you can take a large framed (just a diploma frame…very inexpensive) picture…say 8 by 11 like a sheet of paper-sized with you and let the patients see it.

      I have to wear my vest – it’s like my therapy uniform – so I can really only wear neckwear and hats.

    Aw, it would be so cute if you could wear it on therapy visits! You look adorable in it! I’ve been making hats for cats for the Winnie’s Wish auction and I canNOT get the ear holes right on ones that have them! None of them look comfy unfortunately. Your mom came up with a good solution!
