[New Product] Gentle support during post-surgery and injury treatment! Post-operative clothing is now available.

Hello! I’m HITOMI, and I’ve recently joined the Poponeko Workshop team.

Drawing on my studies at a fashion design school and my experience in apparel retail, I am now in charge of designing clothing that keeps cats comfortable.

In my very first column, I’m excited to announce the launch of our "Cat-Friendly Post-Surgery Wear (Romper)"!

Addressing the concerns of cat owners

Sometimes our cats need surgery due to illness or injury. In those moments, post-operative care is incredibly important.

But as a cat owner, I know you’re filled with worry…

"My cat just had a spay surgery recently. I’m relieved it went well, but I’m worried about her licking her stitches. I wish there was a garment that could cover her lower abdomen."

"My cat hates the Elizabethan collar and keeps grooming near the wound. I can't watch her 24/7 either... it's so stressful. I want something that's easy to put on and take off."

I’ve never lived with a cat myself, but my desire to support the feelings of owners who care so deeply for their cats is second to none.

Peace of mind after surgery! Gentle on the skin and fully covered

That’s why we created the "Cat-Friendly Post-Surgery Wear (Romper)"! It’s a romper style that wraps snugly around their tummy, providing a different level of comfort and security.

1. Stress-free with fluffy material!

The real beauty of this post-surgery wear is its "texture." We use "bear jersey" fabric, which is also used for baby undergarments. It’s thin and lightweight yet has excellent elasticity.

It doesn't restrict your cat's movement, so it's less likely they will mind wearing it. Of course, they can also use the litter box while wearing it.

2. Full coverage for total peace of mind!

Because our "Cat-Friendly Post-Surgery Wear" is a romper, it fully covers the delicate abdomen after surgery. There's no need to worry about your cat licking the wound, and it protects the area from dirt and bacteria.

It comes in sizes S, M, and L, and features hook-and-loop fasteners for easy adjustment. You can ensure a snug, perfect fit tailored to your cat's body shape.

3. Designed with the owner in mind, too!

Poponeko’s post-surgery wear is crafted to be easy to put on while minimizing stress for the cat.

The back opens wide, and we’ve avoided extra components like buttons or zippers to make it easy to dress your cat. We prioritized simplicity over fashion to reduce the burden on your cat as much as possible.

It’s available in three gentle colors: pink, blue, and gray.

Recommended for cats who:

Our "Cat-Friendly Post-Surgery Wear" can be used for various purposes beyond just recovery from spaying:

• For cats with sensitive skin
