    They may look like novelty garments for spoiled kitties, but these colourful cat coats are vital for ensuring the comfort of Sphynx cat Gina and her son Prince Charming in the current breezy weather.

    The eye-catching pair are part of a breed that gets cold easily thanks to their lack of fur; which means they have limited means of conserving heat.

    But, thankfully, owner Zivile Useckaite has found a stylish solution to the problem in the form of tiny - but trendy - sweaters, cardigans and hoodies.

    The Dublin-based feline fanatic Zivile tracks down the feline fashions online.

    She explains: "They need to be kept relatively warm as they have no fur to keep warm. Prince charming got his name as he was born on the same day as William and Kate's child Prince George, so he has a right to be fussy about what he wears."
