| Good question, The only thing that I have ever put on meeka that was for kids is Onesies. I want her to wear them when she gets fixed so I am getting her use to them now. But I actually think they are really cute on her. But even the smallest ones are a little to big for my 2 pounder!

| I buy them all the time. Both Maggie and Winston live in them in winter. The clothes hold up better than the ones for dogs. I just crop the bottom half off and make little t-shirts out of them.

| More pictures for Amy81 Here are a couple of pictures of Winston with his altered baby onesies on. You can see in these pictures that he has both shirts on backwards.

| Yes I buy Cooper infant 0-3 or 3-6 month clothes. He is a little bigger yorkie, so they fit him really well. |

| Since I live in a bit of a chilly area of CA., my guys wear little T's in the morning and evening, sleep in them and every day in the winter unless it's a really cold day when we go somewhere and then they wear jackets. What I do to get the T's I want is, I buy the ones that snap at the crotch in a 6 month size for both girls, then measure down to where it would come to the groin area and cut the bottom half off then stitch soft elastic to the inside of the shirt about 1" from the bottom. I don't even hem because they don't frey. Simple. Here are pictures of some of their shirts and Azrael modeling one. http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a3...eshirts001.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a3...eshirts003.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a3...7-11-07001.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a3...7-11-07002.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a3...7-11-07005.jpg |

| What a great idea!! I'm going to go shopping for onesies this weekend. My little guys love to wear shirts once the weather turns cold. |

| I'm going to tell mom and see if she can do it for me she sews. Can't be too hard. lol we were looking in walmart last night at clothes but they didnt have any newborn. the sign said it did but it was all the big clothes like 6 months and up to 5T so i guess we could measure just above his lower and cut it and then she can hem it up. or the elastic. |
