Black cats wait longer in shelters than cats of any other colour. They photograph badly, superstition dies slowly, and the people walking past have no idea what they are leaving behind. Anyone who has actually lived with one knows how that math works out: relentless, undignified, and entirely yours once they have decided.
So this one is just the cat. No slogan, no punchline, nothing to explain at the school pickup. Drawn in the style of a 1970s screen print, warm black with rust catching along the ears and spine, sitting the way a cat sits when it has chosen the spot and expects you to work around it.
Printed on the Comfort Colors 1717: a 6.1-ounce, garment-dyed heavyweight that shows up soft, fits relaxed and boxy, and fades like a favorite because it basically ships as one. The art runs about ten inches tall on the chest, sized to read across a room and still sit like a shirt rather than a poster.
- 100% ring-spun cotton, garment-dyed
- Relaxed fit, drop shoulder
- Soft-hand print, about 10 inches tall
- Printed to order in the USA
Somewhere one of them is sitting in a window exactly like this, waiting for the right person to look twice.
