THE CITY PAW CLUB

A small Newcastle studio drawing pets as the local icons they already think they are

Your pet, their city. Customised T-shirt for the local furry icon.

Send us three photos, tell us where your pet holds court, and we'll illustrate them into the streets they own. No stock clipart, no photo-on-a-shirt. Just a proper little portrait of your favourite local.

Cities with character

Every city has its own illustrated backdrop: landmarks, weather, snacks and all.

A cat about town illustration for London

London

Tower Bridge, a bus, a tea and one deeply unbothered pigeon.

On the Mersey illustration for Liverpool

Liverpool

Liver Building, ferry crossing and a golden retriever with excellent manners.

Up the Royal Mile illustration for Edinburgh

Edinburgh

Castle rock, tartan scarf and a shortbread that will not survive the walk home.

Northern soul illustration for Manchester

Manchester

Bucket hat, worker bee and a record that never leaves the sleeve.

White T-shirt printed with an illustration of a cat in Hong Kong surrounded by neon signs
Three photos, that's all

Good photos make great portraits

We ask for three clear, well-lit, full-body shots. Daylight beats flash, floor level beats looking down, and one photo of that odd ear or crooked tail helps enormously.

  • Full body in frame, not just a face
  • Natural daylight, no heavy filters
  • Show any markings, scars or unusual features

People who bought a T-shirt for a cat

"My whippet is now permanently stood in front of the Tyne Bridge looking smug. Worth every penny."

Hannah B., Gosforth

"Genuinely the nicest print quality I have had on a tee. The proof came back looking exactly like our cat's judgemental face."

Dev P., Hackney

"Ordered as a birthday present and had to buy a second one for myself. Fast, friendly and very funny emails."

Marie L., Toxteth
