Just when we thought the clever smartphone stand market was tapped out, here comes this little cat stand. Created by Kitan Club, a Japanese capsule toy company, the stand features a cat that looks as if he’s trying to hold back an attacker, with a gaping mouth that seems to scream, “You shall not pass!” (or the cat language equivalent). The stand also features a suction cup to help hold up the smartphone.
But you don’t have to limit this little guy to smartphones, he can help hold back a variety of intruders as demonstrated by Kitan Club.
Other uses for this cat smartphone stand as suggested by the Kitan Club twitter account:
▼ “I will stop you, ZEONG! You will not get by me! MEOW!”
▼ “I’ll stop you, bear! You will not get by me! MEOW!”
The cat stand comes in six different designs and each sells for a mere 200 yen (US$1.97). Look for them in your nearest toy vending machine or buy all six online for 1,020 (US$10.08). Hold back your enemies (or at least hold up your iPhone) with the help of this ferocious cat smartphone stand.
