Chessima Cats are designed to have attitude. There are happy cats, grouchy cats, obstinate and impish cats. They are smiling, grimacing, and menacingly sticking out their tongues. Some are little witch cats, some are dressed to the nines, others sport Santa beards or winter garb. There are even chef cats holding today's catch, ready for the grill! Whatever your desire, there is a Chessima Cat for you to fall in love with. And you never need to clean up hair balls or litter!

Chessima Cats and Critters - oh, look, there are Chickens, too!



In the world of whimsical stoneware, there exists a delightful array of cat figures, each one meticulously handcrafted with a touch of joy and a splash of vibrant color. These aren’t your ordinary feline statues; they’re caught in the midst of life’s simple pleasures and quirky escapades. Imagine a tabby, mid-leap, with a basketball poised for the perfect dunk, or a sleek sweetie savoring a scoop of vanilla ice cream, its tongue playfully pink against the creamy white. There’s a cute kitty clutching a hot dog, complete with all the fixings, and a ginger cat holding a fish so proudly, as if it were the day’s best catch. Each figure is a frozen moment of happiness, a snapshot of carefree bliss.

Born from a vision to distract from the weight of worry, these stoneware cats carry a story of resilience and love. They are more than just clay and glaze; they are a testament to the power of creativity in the face of adversity. Thousands of these charming companions have found their way into the homes and hearts of cat enthusiasts, spreading smiles and a sense of whimsy. From the ones adorned in tutus, pirouetting with grace, to those bundled up in winter attire, braving imaginary chills, each cat is a unique creation. They listen to music, heads bobbing to unseen rhythms, and they interact with smartphones, paws tapping on glass screens. These cats are not just figures; they are symbols of joy, each with a story to tell and a life to brighten.
