From Fallout to One Punch Man, these kitties know how to cosplay.
We’ve seen cosplaying guinea pigs and dressed-up penguins, but when it comes to getting into character with an aloof expression or an intent gaze, nobody does it better than our friends from the feline world. These two cats from the United States, cosplaying as a number of well-known characters from Japan and abroad, are as adorable with their costumes as they are with their facial expressions. Let’s take a look at some of their creative poses, starting with their cute lineup of Japanese anime characters.
▼ Kitty puts on a steely face to pose as Saitama, the caped superhero from the popular anime One Punch Man.
▼ Here he gets into character as “Ereneko”, the cat version of Eren from Attack on Titan.
When it comes to the hit series Pokémon, these cats like to dress up as the dragon-like Gyarados.
Video games also get a look-in, with an appearance by the fierce Akuma, known in Japan as Gouki, from the Street Fighter games. Look at those demon-like eyes!
Kitty channels the pensive look of Emily Kaldwin from forthcoming the video game Dishonored 2. The beautiful coat, like all the costumes the cats wear, are lovingly hand-sewn by their owner.
Even big-name American movies and television shows can’t escape the clutches of kitty’s paws, with this dramatic shot of a cat-like Jon Snow from Game of Thrones.
And Rey from Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

There’s also Emmett Lathrop “Doc” Brown from the Back to the Future series.
And there’s this enigmatic photo of Batman, who should probably now be renamed Catman. Or perhaps Catbatman.
And no cosplaying collection would be complete without an appearance from Harry Potter.
To see more of the gorgeous cosplaying cat duo, be sure to check out their collection on Instagram.
