History Main / AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal

* The modern interpretation of DonkeyKong has the big ape wearing only a red tie [[BroughtToYouByTheLetterS with his initials on it]].

* The birds from ''{{Cinderella}}'' wear only hats, scarves, and shoes.

A variant of HalfDressedCartoonAnimal where the only "clothing" they wear is some kind of cosmetic accessory -- a hat, [[WhiteGloves gloves]], [[RingAroundTheCollar a bow, tie (or bowtie), a necklace, a collar]], etc., or socks and/or shoes -- beyond this, the character is still, well, technically naked. This is different from a straight-up Half Dressed Cartoon Animal, whose article of clothing is typically a full shirt or pants.

* Tony the Tiger only wears a hankerchief.

** In the Figaro cartoon ''Bath Day'', Minnie ties a red bow around Figaro's neck. He thinks he looks like a sissy wearing a bow, so he tries (and fails) to take it off.

* In the ''[[{{ptitlecm0ohq79}} Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]]'' games, the pocket monsters belonging to the Rescue Teams all wear bandannas but usually nothing else.

* In the anime ''{{Pokemon}}'', sometimes a Pokémon is shown wearing these, either as ''TertiarySexualCharacteristics'' or to differentiate from others who look exactly like him.

A variant of HalfDressedCartoonAnimal where a cartoon animal character wears some sort of accessory, like a hat, [[WhiteGloves gloves]], [[RingAroundTheCollar a bow, tie (or bowtie), a necklace, a collar]], etc., or socks and/or shoes, but is otherwise, well, naked. This is different from a straight-up Half Dressed Cartoon Animal, which wears either pants but no shirt or a shirt but no pants.

Like the Half Dressed Cartoon Animal, the creature's natural pelt (fur/feathers or what have they) is considered an acceptable analogue for clothing, thus the subject of them being technically "naked" is seldom mentioned.

RingAroundTheCollar examples can fit in this trope if the animal character is otherwise naked.
