Popeye the Sailor Man Cat Costume

Rio, my rescued kitty is dressed as the classic cartoon character Popeye! The reason why I chose this costume for him is because he's one tough kitty! My husband and I found him starving and searching for food by a busy highway while we were on vacation (right near Halloween too)! He tested positive with feline AIDS, but he's a strong cat and is doing great! I guess as long as he eats his "spinach" he will continue to be strong! :)

How to Instructions:

I bought a infant size long sleeve black shirt and blue pants. Then I used felt and fabric paint to make the trim and felt for the neck piece. I then found a pattern online to make a sailor hat and used felt for to make that. To make the arms, I used stockings and put stuffing in them. I attached it (glue) to the black long sleeve shirt and drew on the anchor with marker. Lastly, I found a play-can and printed out a "popeye spinach" picture and glued it on.
