I got this for my daughter's first Halloween and it was perfect. Thank you to the previous reviewer who noted to buy black tights, I did so and also included a black long sleeve onesie underneath. The material is great, you can pick off some of the fur if you try, but luckily she wasn't interested in doing that. We live in Florida and even with the onesie and tights she was not too hot. Even though kids this age won't wear the hood for long, the outfit was still very cute. I put a pink/black kitty ear headband on her when she was done wearing the hood. The only thing that keeps me from giving 5 stars is wishing the velcro opening was bigger for the kids who can stand/walk. If the opening was bigger they could step into the costume instead of it going over their head. Love how the costume is open at the bottom -- very convenient for diaper changes. With the elastic, you cant even tell it is open, so nicely done.
