DETAILED DESCRIPTION ACCORDING TO THE PR~FERR~D
EMBODIMENTS OF THE PRESENT INVENTION:
Figures 1 and 2 show an animal hat generally indicated at 1. In Figure 1, the animal hat is fitted to a dog in a manner which makes it very difficult for the dog to remove the hat which the dog initially is likely to try to do. However, after wearing the hat for a very short period, the dog or whatever other pet the hat is fitted to will usually find the hat quite comfortable and give up on its attempt to knock the hat off. ~
~ ;
The hat itself comprises a cap portion 3 having a reinforced rear edge 4. The cap portion includes a soft bonnet region which sits directly on the animals head ana a forwardly extending visor portion as best shown in Figure 1 ~
of the drawings. `
Extending from the side edges of the visor portion back to the reinforced rear edge of the cap p~rtion are a pair of ear wraps 5, one on either side of the hat. An ear fitting opening 7 is provided between cap portion 3 and each of the ear wraps 5. When the hat is place~ on the pet, the pet's ears will fit up through openings 7 as shown in Figure , 1 of the drawings.
The hat further includes a neck strap 9. This neck ; strap is formed by neck strap portions 11 and 13 which are provided with a releasable fastener and in this case, a VELCRO fastening system for opening and closing the neck strap to allow its fitting around the pet's neck. The two neck strap portions 11 and 13 are secure~ to the hat et the ;~ .
:
20280~7 ,, SJ-8053-90 - 3 - 346~/OU~4 juncture of ear wraps 5 and reinforced cap portion 4.
Therefore, the neck strap when closed as shown in Figure 1 extends between the two ear wraps 5 beneath the animals neck as seen in the drawings.
One of the keys to the present invention is the provision of an elasticized region in the neck strap. In the embodiment shown, strap 9 includes a pair of elasticizea regions 15, one to each side of the VELCRO fastening system. These elasticized regions allow for fitting of the neck stràp to various different sizes of pets and while providing a very comfortable fitting ensure that the neck strap which effectively holds the cap in position is snug around the animal's neck.

Although various preferred embodiments of the ~-invention have been described in detail, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that variations may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention -~
or the scope of the appended claims.
