Why You Need It
If your kid's answer to why they're here is the cat, this hoodie gets it. The back shows a black cat sitting on an open book, surrounded by stacks of vintage books, potted plants and a little brass bell, under the line I Came for the Books, Stayed for the Cat. The front stays clean, with a roomy pocket. It's thick, soft and cozy, and it gets smiles when they walk away.
Wear It Loud
We picked this one for the joke. The art is printed large on the back: a black cat with bright eyes on an open book, old books stacked on both sides, leafy plants in pots and a brass bell, with the words curved above and below.
The fleece is thick and soft inside, the cut is loose with drop shoulders, and the ribbed cuffs and hem keep it in place. It comes in Flower Gray. Wear it over a tee with jeans or joggers.
Why It's Yours
For the kid whose bookshelf has a cat on it. The design is cozy and a little chaotic, with books, plants and a very serious black cat, so it fits book lovers, plant lovers and cat people alike. It has a bookish, cottagecore feel and a good sense of humor. It's a fun gift for young readers, and the hoodie that gets picked first on a cold morning.

Poster/Canvas Care
Care Instructions: Poster
Keep it out of direct sunlight, which fades ink over time. Hang it in a dry room, away from steam and damp. Dust it gently with a soft, dry cloth, and don’t spray or wipe it with liquid. For the longest life, put it under glass in a frame. Handle it by the edges, and store it flat or rolled loosely, never creased.
Care Instructions: Canvas
Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from heat vents and damp rooms. Dust the surface with a soft, dry cloth or a dry brush. Don’t use water, sprays or cleaners on the print. Hang it on a secure wall mount, and avoid pressing on the front of the canvas. If it’s stored, keep it upright and wrapped in a clean cloth, away from anything that could dent the front.
