The Cat's Meow has been in business in one form or another since 1983 when Keith and Nancy Hay opened the very first Cat's Meow retail store in downtown Ann Arbor, Michigan. At one time there were three Cat's Meow locations including Royal Oak, MI and Madison, WI. For over 20 years we have served our customers by selling fun, innovative items including: vintage clothing, t-shirts, tiki, novelty items, punk rock and monster stuff and the cool, unique and unusual. We're proud to announce that The Cat's Meow is back and now selling exclusively online and at special public events-be sure to check the online schedule.

We love all the items we sell! Our inventory is an exciting mix of new & vintage one-of-a-kind items that is constantly being updated and expanded, so check back often to see what's fresh to the site!

The Cat's Meow is a true 'mom and pop' operation. Even though our brick and mortar stores are a thing of the past we still rely on your generous goodwill to make our living. By buying from catsmeowdetroit.com you are supporting an independent local business. We appreciate your orders and recommendations to your friends.

We want your comments and suggestions on any merchandise we sell or should sell. If you are an artist, wholesaler or crafter who has something that would fit into our Cat's Meow mix please let us know. Email us anytime!

We would also like to hear from old customers and friends, so please email us and send your photos and updates.
