With these embroidered cat shirts made by Hiroko Kubota, you no longer have to choose between [looking stylish](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forever-21-and-sanrio) and showing the world just how much you love cats.

Artist Hiroko Kubota was always making clothes for her son who she had difficulty shopping for, who also happened to be a huge fan of cats. After collecting photos off the internet of cute cats, Kubota went to work creating her embroidered cat shirts. Due to popularity of the shirts, she now sells them online. The [cats come in various colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fancy-feast-set-for-delight), and are prominently displayed on the shirt's pocket in different actions, from yawning, to pawing and being downright adorable.

Crazy cat people too often get a bad rap for not being stylish, it would appear that Kubota's embroidered cat shirts will help overcome their fashion "faux paws."
