Cat lovers won’t want to miss this new feline smartphone ass-essory.
Do you love cats? Do you have a smartphone? If so, these new I Cat “catbutt” phone stands from Hamee (previously Strap-ya) may be right up your alley.
There are four different versions to choose from, each featuring a playful kitty or two flashing you a shot of its bum or balls as it props up your phone with a suction cup attachment.
Oddly enough, these felines’ buttholes and testes are perhaps the cutest part, and we’re sure we have the runaway success of Neko Atsume, or Kitty Collector, to thank for that.
For just 928 yen (US$8.42) a piece you can collect them all beginning May 27 on Strap-ya’s site here, which also offers standing versions of the kitties, too, for 2,592 yen (US$23.50). Despite the I Cat name, the stands work with all smartphone types rather than just those made by Apple.
There’s also a campaign to kick off the release of these “catbutt” cuties.
All you have to do is follow the official Hamee account on Twitter (@Hameefun) and retweet any time between the campaign start and end times between May 17 and May 26. Three winners will be selected to win an icon of themselves (in human or cat form) or their favorite cat drawn by Otako Nekomura-sensei, I Cat’s designer.
Don’t forget to check out the rest of Hamee’s adorable cat accessory line-up, too.
