We love this delightful dapper tuxedo cat so much, we included it in our list of Carefully Selected, Unusually Special Gifts Under $200. 

Senior editor Jen Trolio lives in a household of certified Cat People and ordered this nearly life-size Lego tuxedo cat as soon as it launched to give to her daughter for her 9th birthday. She says her daughter “spent a leisurely couple weeks building it in fits and spurts and now it’s part of our home décor, hanging out on an end table as if it’s just one of the gang with our two living, breathing tabbies.” 

She continues that “it’s especially neat that the build allows you to choose the cat’s eye color (blue, yellow, or one of each) and whether you want its mouth open or closed. “Owners of actual tuxedo cats have used this feature to great effect, and I’ve seen many delightful photos of people’s O.G. felines staring down their new Lego twins.”
