Cat Memorial Hoodie: Custom Embroidered Cat Portrait from Your Photo

This cat memorial hoodie turns your favorite photo of your cat into a full-color embroidered portrait, so you can keep a cat you miss, or a cat still curled up beside you, close every day. Every face, whisker and letter is 100% real embroidery, stitched into the fabric rather than printed.

What is on the cat memorial hoodie?

The cat memorial hoodie carries your cat’s face and a few small details you choose:

• The portraits: 1 to 4 pets drawn from your photos and stitched in full color, with their real markings and eye color.
• The names: optional names under the portraits, such as a name with the years, in the font and thread color you pick.
• The placement: the middle of the chest as shown, or a smaller design on the left or right chest.
• The sleeve: optional initials or a small icon, such as the black heart shown or an angel paw, on the left or right sleeve.

How do you personalize your hoodie?

To personalize your hoodie, follow 6 steps:

• Keep Hoodie in the first option, or switch to a sweatshirt, T-shirt or quarter zip, then pick the color and size.
• Choose the number of pets, from 1 to 4.
• Pick the chest placement and type the names, or leave the names blank.
• Choose the font and the thread color for the names.
• Add sleeve embroidery if you like: initials, an icon from the font & icon chart, or both.
• Upload clear photos of each pet, add a note if anything matters to you, and add the hoodie to your cart.

Which photo works best for a cat portrait?

The best photo shows your cat’s face from the front in daylight, with both eyes open and the ears in the frame. Upload two or three photos of each cat if you can; we combine the clearest details. Older or slightly blurry photos of a cat who has passed are fine, because you see the drawing in your free proof before anything is stitched.

Which garment and color should you choose?

The portrait comes on 4 garments, each with its own color list:

• Hoodie ($63): 20 colors, sizes S to 5XL.
• Crewneck sweatshirt ($53.85): 8 colors, sizes S to 5XL.
• Quarter zip ($59): 13 colors, sizes S to 5XL.
• T-shirt ($43): 20 colors, sizes S to 4XL.

One or two pets are included in the price. A third pet adds $10 and a fourth adds another $10, and sleeve embroidery adds $10. Tabby and orange cats stand out on Ash, Light Blue, Light Pink and Carolina Blue, white cats on Navy, Forest or Maroon, and black cats on Ash, Light Pink or Light Blue.

Is it only for a cat who has passed?

No. The same hoodie makes a birthday or holiday gift for a cat dad, a cat mom or a boyfriend who talks about his cats all day. For a memorial, add the name and years under the portrait or an angel paw on the sleeve, and tell us anything else in the note field. More remembrance designs are in our pet memorial sweatshirts.

What happens after you order?

We email you a free digital design proof within 1–2 business days, and you can ask for unlimited edits. Once you approve it, we embroider your hoodie in 1–3 business days and ship it from the USA, so it arrives 3–8 business days after approval (U.S. delivery).

Which size should you choose?

Each piece is personalized and made to order, so it is not eligible for size exchanges. Compare the measurements with a hoodie you already own in our size guide before you order, and size up for a roomy, oversized fit.

How should you wash an embroidered hoodie?

To keep the portrait bright and flat, follow 4 steps:

• Turn the hoodie inside out before washing.
• Wash it cold on a gentle cycle.
• Tumble dry low or hang it to dry.
• Iron on the reverse side, never directly on the embroidery.

Frequently asked questions

Is the cat portrait printed or embroidered?

Embroidered. The portrait, the names and the sleeve details are stitched in thread, so they won’t crack or peel like a print.

Can I put a dog and a cat on the same hoodie?

Yes. Choose the number of pets and upload a photo of each one, dog or cat. You can see more designs for every kind of pet in our custom pet hoodies.

Is it a good gift for a cat lover?

Yes. A hoodie with their own cat on it is a personal gift for birthdays, holidays and adoption anniversaries. More ideas are in our cat lover gifts.
