The cover of Meowtallica's 1986 landmark: a field of ginger kittens in scorched grass, each one strung up on puppet strings pulled from a blood-red sky. The critics heard a concept album about control. The kittens heard a can opener.
5 · 16 cursed reviewsEvery great thrash record needs a cover that says something. This one says: obedience is an illusion, the strings run upward, and whoever is holding them has treats. Meowtallica's masterpiece asked the big question — who is really pulling whose strings in your household? — and answered it with twelve unblinking kittens. Legend has it the original cover painting sold at auction for twenty-eight thousand dollars. Ours ships on a shirt, which is more than can be said for most masterpieces. Any resemblance to a certain monument of masters and puppets is a coincidence we are contractually committed to.
Parody. Fan-made. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or remotely approved of by any actual band. NOT AVAILABLE IN ANY STORE.
We spent years testing t-shirts, washing them, wearing them into the ground, until we landed on this Comfort Colors blank. We print on this one on purpose. We wanted yours to feel like the band tee you grabbed at a merch stand five years ago: soft as hell, perfectly broken in, the one friends keep telling you looks great on you. The one you'd save in a fire.
Why it feels that way:
Care for the cursed: cold wash, inside out, low dry. The slow fade is not damage, it's the point.
Relaxed, slightly boxy unisex cut, true to size. For a fitted look, size down.
Exact garment measurements live in the size chart next to the size picker, straight from the print partner. Quick sanity check: measure a shirt you already love and compare. Full fit guidance for every garment is on the size guide page.
Every piece is made to order in darkness, typically 2-5 business days of production before it ships. Worldwide shipping, tracking lands in your inbox the moment it leaves the lair.
Arrived damaged, misprinted, or just wrong? Send a photo via the contact page and we'll make it right. Details on the shipping & returns page.
Fabric specs for this exact garment live in THE FABRIC section above. Universal rules of the pit: wash cold, inside out. Hang to dry in the moonlight. Never iron the print. Do NOT let the cat sleep on it (you will lose).
Where else are you going to find a heavy metal/cat hybrid shirt like this? Nowhere, that's where! Plus, the donations to cat-related shelters melt my kind of cynical, slightly black heart. :)
I've gotten so many compliments on this shirt. It fits like I expected it to and the print has held up well through all the washings because it's one of my top worn shirts.
I loved the shirt, bought it for my boyfriend as he wears humorous shirts to work, and it was a huge hit! Would buy again.
I wore it for the first time today. It was warm and fits true to size. It's well made and I love the picture.

Very Good both in quality and size. Higly recomanded. Love it!!!
My husband likes it but it is borderline too small for him. I just bought the size I always buy. Bummer.
Will never ever order anything again. Shirt comes from teespring. Horrible company to deal with
Love my shirt, however the women's fit does run small. Size up to the next size.
Fits great. Fun design. Wore it for the first time today and I had a stranger compliment me on it.
Nice pic. I would like to see an Elvis kitty shirt
Love the shirt and get a lot of comments about it when I wear it
This is an awesome shirt. Very soft, and good quality. The women's sizes run a bit small though. Customer service is excellent!
Bought this for my brother for Xmas - he loves it. Also has a Meowtallica shirt. I have the HISS shirt - they're all conversation starters!
