Christmas Cat Illustration 2025

And he's here! The star of this year's Yellow Tiger Christmas card is my wonderful cat Tiggy. Black and white, fluffy as a cloud, big as a dog and living his best life after being abandoned when he was 5... I adopted Tiggy in 2020 and he's since become the love of my life :)

You might recognise him from one of my cards last year - the illustration of a cat peeking out of a christmas stocking. That was a bestseller, so I've brought Tiggy back this Christmas, sitting on a gift (which he probably thinks is for him).

He makes me laugh all the time. Right now I can see him out of the window, sitting in the middle of our street, "defending us" from a pretty grey tabby who has curiously wandered into his patch of North London. And just this morning, I put his cat biscuits in his bowl for breakfast, with a few dental treats on top (he loves them) - and he came in just as I was putting away the packet, and proceeded to follow me around miaowing - even when I tried to show him that the treats were already in his bowl... what a cat.
