Why wear just any Christmas sweater when you could wear one festooned with festive felines? Christmas cat sweaters make every aspect of the holiday season better, from office parties to family get-togethers. And there’s no better way to make sure you really stand out on a holiday Zoom call.
Whether ugly, festive, or just plain cute, Christmas cat sweaters will ensure you’re the life of the party. Here are several of our favorites.
