We all know it and we all laugh at it - yes, we're talking about the cone of shame. Everyone has to wear it at some point, whether from a surgery or to stop scratching that annoying itch, but some of us absolutely refuse to wear something so….so….hideous! We can't be seen wearing that, what will all of our kitty friends think of us? We have standards to uphold, and a reputation to consider. We wouldn't be caught in that horrific thing, but you know what is totally in style right now? Toast!

That's right, this post is full of kitties who are rocking their favorite snack around their necks instead of that plastic atrocity we call The Cone. From toasty bread to delicious donuts, these kitties are looking tasty, and safe! Plus, they double as a travel pillow, which is mighty convenient for a species that takes 17 naps a day. Scroll down to see all these tasty and adorable kitties below!

    Well, who doesn't love a classic slice of white bread! This adorable kitty has it all, really - a portable pillow, something to keep her safe from aggravating herself post-operation, and she looks great to boot!

    Cat - tameenuwen edited 5 hr. ago 1 day ago • OP, I love this toast, I just got one recently myself for my cat. It's so much better than an e-collar. I think its cute when she wobbles a bit. (if you want her IG, just view my profile socials)

    A donut, and a watermelon??? Who knew there were so many options out there for kitties who don't like the cone of shame. Is it weird that we're kind of…jealous? We want a donut pillow to sleep with anywhere.

    Cat - effyourinfographics 1 day ago Ooh love the bread! My big dude just finished six weeks of being a donut due to an overzealous groomer that left him a hotspot risk. He got real used to having a mobile pillow, haha.
