Cor Blimey, I am torn on buying this shirt. I am thinking of getting it for my dad for his birthday though. I can't decide if I want one for my self also. Curse you TeeFury for making too many awesome shirts.
All right, how about "Cat Game?"
All right meow. (1) Hand over your license and registration.
Your registration? Hurry up meow. (2)
All right meow, (3) where were we?
Don't think boy. Meow, (4) do you know how fast you were going?
Meow. (5) What is so KHAAAAAAAN funny?
Meow, (7) I'm gonna have to give you a ticket on this one.
No buts meow. (8) It's the law.
Not so funny meow, (9) is it?
Meow!
If I didn't already have a red communist dinosaur shirt, I would definitely get this because: 1) I love cats and 2) this is adorable. But I can't justify having 2 red communist themed shirts (especially since I live in a neighborhood full of russian immigrants)
Not a fan of cats usually, but I'm digging on this shirt! Print might be a little large, but may be outweighed by the fact I can chuckle to myself with the Psych reference that will be going through me head every time I wear it! Will definitely be one to sleep on.
For all of you wondering who the "character" is on the shirt let Wiki explain. Read most of the article to understand why people are saying it might be offensive to some *but funny as all heck to me*
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mao_Zedong
--------------
On a side note I would totally buy this if it weren't on red, but I know why it had to be printed on it and that is cool :) I am hoping alot of the side arts are printed cause I would buy them all. Love stirring up mess around my neighborhood and such with politically questionable or funny stuff. You should see my car bumper! Have had tons of people flip me off and such.
I have visited "Obey the Purebreed" website MANY times! Would LOVE to see the Boston Terrier shirt offered here!
Kevin McCormick does such awesome work!
Very cool! I just wouldn't want to wear it around. I might as well just carry around my little red book and sick my red imperial guard on folks. Oh wait... that's Dancin Stars. Dancin Stars... China... same thing...
I've seen pretty much this exact same shirt on ICHC before. So.. either this is the same artist, for some reason hocking his shirt on a supposedly "24 hour only shirts!" site (which would make you liars) or this guy is a teef (which would make him a liar)
I'm SO not a cat person and I just had to buy this. I'd seen the artist's website before and loved so much of what was offered. If there is EVER another offering from this artist and it has dachshunds on it, I will buy at least 3. Seriously. Make it happen Tee Fury.
TeeFury, you are outdoing yourselves by making me buy 3 shirts in a row. This is just amazing! The first shirt that made me laugh aloud the moment I saw it. Even bought one for my mom too.
If you look at the obey the purebreed website,you'll notice that the font type and color are different than those used in the teefury version.
Is it enough to make you buy both versions?Of course not,but it's enough of a change to be considered a different version of it.
And that's where the only for 24 hours part comes to play.
With that said,I think it's an awesome tee,especially since i love cats,but I have no simoleans,so I'm not sure if I'll be getting this...
I like it, but the "Chairman Meow" at the bottom isn't really needed in my opinion. After all Mao means cat anyway, so it would have worked just fine as a pun without any text.

Hmm. Now which one could it be...
Gooner, the $9 TeeFury screenprinted version of the art is only available here for 24 hours. We're a site that supports artists, so at TeeFury artists keep the full rights to their art and are able to use it however they like, including at DTG printing sites like Cafepress. We think you'll find that our print is the best value and the best quality, tho :)
also, i think that a lot of ppl asking for the other prints to be the shirt are failing to see on the website they are all shirts and also, there are a TON more of other cats, dogs and other types of shirts (:
http://www.obeythepurebreed.com/
just check out the left side of the page for dog breeds and cat breeds!
I love the color, and the design goes along with it perfectly... The art itself is really laid out well, and the proportions are spot on. I think all together this is a really fantastic shirt! Also I love the Pit Bull side art and would love to have it as well!
I bought some stuff off of ObeyThePureBreed. The only reason I stopped is because they stopped offering the Min Pin design that looked exactly like mine. Should've grabbed more when I had the chance....
Shirt rocks, but it's bills week and my bonus doesn't come to next friday *hangs head, kicks dirt with toe*
larsensa said: Is this Chairman Meow a murderer like Chairman Mao? Hopefully he is nicer than Mao and hasn't starved 60-80 million of his feline friends!
Which is why even though this initially made me giggle a little, I gotta pass. Kitties are cute, Mao was evil personified.
When I first saw this, I thought of Chairman Bob (for those of you who are familiar with Pick n' Save). Needless to say I was excited, but then left disappointed. But maybe there's a design in there somewhere...
but im not really a cat person...:( buuut...i realllly realllly like the:
mah bukket
and all 3 dog ones....especially the pug!!! i've gotten the last 2 pug shirts and i need more!!! actually any dog shirt will do :)
but seriously please print the mah bukkit and the 3 dog shirts..if u have to choose choose the pug...obey the pug! :)

I browsed his website, but Cafepress is more expensive, and I didn't like the color for the pit bull shirt (white). I'm hoping Teefury will print it on a colored shirt.
We NEED the PITBULL on the Side !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is pretty fantastic, but I actually like the design in all black ans slightly smaller on the shirt as seen in his Cafepress store... but who can beat the price tag and quality of Teefury? So Torn.
I really love how you pulled this iconic idea off. Seriously.
Man, if I had the bux... I'd so buy this version over any other.
Especially the quality of the shirts and the printing here at THIS price.

Excellent design. The funniest part of this (for me) is that "Mao" is Chinese for cat! I do designs like this myself and appreciate your use in other designs of my favorite artist, Alphonse Mucha. Good work!
A word from the curator: Kevin is a real master of housepet propaganda! We're lucky to be able to bring you one of his finest pieces, Chairman Meow. If you like what you see here, check out his shop Obey the Purebreed!
Here's a sampling of a recent interview with Kevin:
How did you first come up with the concept of the Obey the Purebreed clothing line? I came up with the idea about 6-7 years ago because of a Weimaraner that we had. She was really demanding, and had a way of controlling people when she wanted something. We found that it wasn’t possible to reason with her, so you had to obey what she told you to do. That inspired me to do an illustration of her that was based on an old soviet propaganda poster.
Do you create all the art yourself? What is your creation process like? Yeah, I do all of the designs, and I built the site as well. Really I just would find good photos of specific dog breeds and cats, and then find a way to show them as dictators by looking at old propaganda posters and postage stamps. The way that Shepard Fairey has remixed some of that old stuff was also an inspiration for style. He’s a great designer. Some of my designs could even be considered a parody of what he does.
Where do you see Obey the Purebreed headed in the future? In a perfect world, where would you like it to go? Obeythepurebreed.com is a great creative outlet for me, and allows me to not depend on the ups and downs of freelance work to get by. I think for now it will continue to exist on that level, but there’s always the possibility of choosing some ideas or breeds to really expand on. In a perfect world I would turn Chairman Meow into a smaller version of what Paul Frank did with his monkey icon. Although, from what I understand, that venture didn’t end well so in a perfect world I would omit that part of it!
