ABOUT RUFUS:

Rufus is the loyal and anthropomorphic pet naked mole-rat of Ron Stoppable in the Kim Possible universe. Residing in Ron’s pocket, Rufus accompanies the duo on their crime-fighting adventures, often proving useful with his quick thinking and agility. Conceived by the show’s creators as a way to include an animal sidekick, Rufus provides comic relief with his squeaks and giggles, voiced by actress Nancy Cartwright. Despite his small size, Rufus has demonstrated bravery and resourcefulness, making him an integral part of Team Possible.

How To Dress Like Rufus

1. BODYSUIT – Our funny and simple Rufus costume starts with a full-body pink bodysuit.

2. GLOVES – Next, a pair of brown mittens will act as our mole rat claws.

4. TEETH – Of course, you couldn’t do this look justice without an impressive pair of fake buck teeth.

5. WHISKERS – These cosplay whiskers are a great little addition to this outfit and are super simple to apply.

6. FACE PAINT – This pastel pink face paint matches the tone of the bodysuit almost exactly.

7. COLLAR – Finally, we know that Rufus always hated his collar but when you are this mischievous, sometimes a leash is necessary.

Rufus Costume: FAQ

What do you need for a Rufus costume from Kim Possible?

A Rufus costume starts with a pale pink bodysuit, prominent buck teeth and whiskers. This guide adds brown mittens and slippers to suggest his paws, plus a red collar as a playful accessory. Keep the pink base plain so the face details establish the naked mole-rat character without competing patterns.

Can you make a Rufus costume without a bodysuit?

Yes, a pale pink sweatshirt and matching leggings or joggers can replace the bodysuit for a relaxed Rufus outfit. Choose similar shades and cover large logos to keep the body looking consistent. Add whiskers and buck teeth, then use brown gloves and footwear to echo the paws in this guide.

How can you add Rufus’s whiskers without buying costume accessories?

Draw a few short whisker lines on each cheek with a cosmetic face pencil for an easy alternative to stick-on whiskers. Keep them visible beside the buck teeth rather than extending across the whole face. Pale pink face paint can connect the face to the outfit, but full coverage is optional.

Which characters work best in a group costume with Rufus?

Ron Stoppable is the clearest partner for Rufus, since the little mole rat is his constant companion. Add Kim Possible for a three-person Team Possible costume, or bring in Shego for a hero-and-villain group. Ron’s cargo trousers also offer a fun photo setup with Rufus pretending to climb from a pocket.

Is the red collar essential for a Rufus costume?

No, the red collar is an optional detail in this guide’s interpretation of Rufus. The pink body, whiskers and oversized front teeth do more to identify him. You can leave the collar out, particularly for a simpler outfit, and still keep the brown mittens and slippers that suggest his paws.

How do you make a Rufus costume easier to wear at a party?

Choose a pink outfit you can sit and move in, and try the full combination before the party. Brown shoes can replace fluffy slippers if you will be walking outdoors. Keep the mittens easy to remove for using your phone, and take out costume teeth before eating or drinking anything.
