About this design
"black cats, bad luck, good company" is an original Chucklify design for cat parents. It is drawn as a retro ribbon banner graphic — bold heavy display lettering with a black cat silhouette mark — and printed to order on a garment-dyed Comfort Colors tee, a heavy-blend crewneck sweatshirt and an 11 oz mug. If you have been looking for a cat lover gift that is more specific than the usual slogans, this is the one: it reads in one second, from across the room, and it only makes sense if you live it.

Tee: Comfort Colors 1717, 100% ring-spun cotton, garment-dyed, relaxed unisex fit, S–2XL. Colours: Ivory, White, Butter, Blossom, Chalky Mint, Khaki, Pepper, Black, Blue Jean, Moss, True Navy.

Care
Wash cold inside out, tumble dry low or hang dry, no bleach, don't iron the print. Mugs: dishwasher safe; hand washing keeps the print brightest longest.
Why this one lands
Three reasons. It is about cat parents, not 'everyone'. It is readable from across the room — a ribbon banner layout with a black cat silhouette mark, not a wall of text. And it comes in the three things people actually use: a tee, a sweatshirt and a mug, so the same joke can be a birthday gift, a Christmas gift and the thing you buy yourself.
Also searched as: halloween shirt, tuxedo cat shirt, cat shirt, black cat shirt, custom cat shirt, cat gifts, cat mom, cat lover.
