Does anyone have a Tonner Tiny Kitty?
If so, can she wear Barbie clothes and shoes?
Or am I going to have to make them for her?
And how tall is she compared to other doll?
Thanks in advance

It says on the tonner website that she is only 10" tall, so she will be significantly shorter than barbie(who is over 11"), probably closer to skipper's height. This article says barbie clothes should fit her, but it doesn't mentions shoes.

I have Tiny Kitty dolls. Some Barbie clothes will fit her ok, especially stretchy tops and pants. Some tops will be too wide on the shoulders and too big in the chest. Most pants tend to be long, as Kitty is shorter than Barbie. Barbie's shoes will not fit her. Her feet are much larger.

Thanks. I have gotten her in now. I'll post a picture later. Oh and I found out she can wear some of the new Barbie curvey and tall shoes which are larger.

New question, how do you get rid of sticky Barbie hair? I'm trying to avoid rerooting her. Is there a way to avoid it?

With Monsters I've used baby/talc powder worked in to the hair. It sits at least overnight then gets shaken and brushed out. With some of them I got the hair wet, only use cold water, worked the powder in, let it dry, then rinsed it out. Repeat as needed. Make sure the hair is basically styled and parted as wanted while it dries.
Warm water will melt the glue.

To tag along on this thread, I gave my Tiny Kitty to a friend who is going to deck her out for a charity auction, but she doesn't know how to restyle the hair. Miss Kitty is currently sporting a lovely blond 1950s 'do but this won't work at all for a WoT Wise One.
What is the best and safest way for someone who has never restyled rooted hair? Personally, I'm thinking clipping to the scalp and a wig would work for me.

@Kirahfaye It depends on how the hair was rooted, it might not part correctly.
You can start with taking the hair down, getting it wet with cold water, restyling then letting it dry. Having seen the style I'd put a cloth rubber band on like a headband, and maybe even one around the neck if needed, to hold the hair down while drying.
Not knowing the type of hair boil setting might fry it.
