Have you ever wished you could take your cat with you everywhere? Well, Japanese artist Pico certainly did.
Meshing her love of cats with her talent for sewing, the talented seamstress makes custom, handcrafted bags that look just like real cats.
The backpacks can even move their arms and legs into different positions.
Sewing full-sized cat-ty bears with hollow interiors, Pico leaves their furry tummies empty and lined with patterned fabric, ready to be filled with wallets, makeup, books, and snacks.
With limbs that can rotate and move, the cat-packs can stand, sit, hold objects, and raise their arms in a friendly greeting.
Attached to straps, the kitties hang from you back wherever you walk.
With sturdy buckles sewn into their backs, the cats attach to backpack straps, where they can easily be thrown over your shoulders and carried around with you to work.
Looking at times startlingly realistic, the faux kitty cats are cute as a button.
Pico also makes tube-like hand bags that look like adorable sausage cats.
Offering a range of bags such as backpacks, purses, handbags, and clutches, her unique line is widely sought after in Japan.
Since each bag is handcrafted with care , orders are in high demand and very limited, selling only on Yahoo! auction Japan.
The interior is lined with prettily patterned fabric.
With plenty of room to store all your valuables, these purr-fect purses can keep you company wherever you go, always at your side for your daily kitty dose.
Always in high demand, one of her purses even sold for $1250, proving that yes, people do indeed love cats.
Grumpy cat, bored cat, happy cat, and more, each bag has its own personality.
With each cat-pack containing its own unique personality, Pico’s designs never cease to disappoint. Following along on her Instagram , you can see all of her shop updates and future creations. (Though she does remind buyers to please bear with her as handcrafting the bags makes for slow production.)
