“Jade and Moggy” by Nina Valkhoff by in Gent, Belgium.
Nina Valkhoff: This mural is for everyone who needs a hug. It’s called ‘Jade and Moggy’ and it represents the amazing feeling of hugging someone you love, human or animal. Especially in these challenging times this is a feeling most of us crave, and I hope to give a message of hope and love with this mural. We see a sleeping girl with her cat. Is she dreaming, or is what we are seeing a daydream of the cat, who sees tasty little fishes appear? Based on a photo taken by Karin Post of her daughter Jade and their cat Moggy. Made for the Goldmine festival in Gent, organized by Wallin’.

“Stadsnatuur” by Nina Valkhoff in Rotterdam, Netherlands.
Did you know that there are foxes in Rotterdam? I did not, and I was so delighted, that I took this opportunity (wall) to tell everyone about the foxes in my city! There are roughly between 30 and 50 of them, hiding for humans, very rarely they are spotted on the streets. They help to keep the population of rats under control and they will never attack humans/kids . The downside is that chickens and rabbits are not safe for a hungry fox.
The Irish mythological story of Étaín! By Nina Valkhoff for DRAWDA festival in Drogheda, Ireland.
Nina Valkhoff: My contribution to the DRAWDA festival in Drogheda, Ireland. This was a special one, I was given the Irish mythological story of Étaín, to make my own visual representation of this complex story. I will not do it justice trying to summarize it here, so I will explain the elements I picked. Étaín was a beautiful woman who got cursed and transformed into a scarlet fly. This is the glowing insect you see in the middle of my painting, a ‘scarlet fly’ with a little twist. In the very end of the story, over a thousand years have passed and Étaín has transformed many times, she flies away with her lover and they are seen as two swans. In my composition I tried to show protection and love, elements that are a part of this story.

📦 Cardboard Box Cat — By Nego in Torrellas, Zaragoza, Spain 🇪🇸
Nego turns an ordinary building corner into a giant cardboard box. The cat peeks out as if the whole house has become a toy. It is funny, smart, and perfectly scaled to make the street feel more playful.💡 Nerd Fact: This joke lands even harder because it taps into real cat behavior. Utrecht University notes that cats with access to simple hiding boxes adapt faster to stressful environments, so the cardboard box is not just a joke. It is also the kind of hiding place cats actually use to feel safer.

🐈 Gatet Gegant — By Oriol Arumí in Torrefarrera, Catalonia, Spain 🇪🇸
Oriol Arumí turns a quiet building into a giant local favorite. The official Torrefarrera Street Art Festival guide lists the 2020 mural as Gatet gegant on Carrer Serra Llarga, and the illusion really does make the whole block feel like the kitten’s living room.More: The Giant Kitten

🔴 The Red Cat — By LeHo Artwork in Taipei, Taiwan 🇹🇼
This glowing cat was presented in LeHo Artwork’s post about the mural as part of the 幻獸 series for Taipei’s lantern festival, which helps explain why the cat feels warm, luminous, and slightly unreal. The 3D illusion makes it seem as if the red body is radiating straight out from the wall.More: The Red Cat Mural: A Street Art Piece by LeHo Artwork in Taipei

🗽 Tombili — By Seval Şahin in Kadıköy, Istanbul, Turkey 🇹🇷
Not every great cat piece needs to be painted on a wall. According to Kadıköy Municipality, sculptor Seval Şahin made the statue voluntarily, and it was installed at the spot in Ziverbey where Tombili became famous for this relaxed pose. It turns a beloved neighborhood stray into a permanent piece of urban memory.💡 Nerd Fact: Tombili’s monument became its own mini civic saga. Kadıköy Municipality says it only happened after a 17,000-signature campaign, and Hürriyet Daily News later reported that the statue was stolen and returned days later after public outrage.

🐾 Squishee the Alleycat — By SWIFTMANTIS in Papaioea, New Zealand 🇳🇿
This is not just a realistic cat portrait. On the artist’s official mural page, SWIFTMANTIS explains that Squishee was a real local alley cat living under their old brick studio in Palmy before eventually earning a home with them. Painted for Street Prints: Papaioea 2020, the mural carries that real affection as much as the technical skill.💡 Nerd Fact: Squishee’s story kept growing after the mural was finished. On the artist’s own print page, SWIFTMANTIS says later editions became a memorial print with Squishee’s real paw print, and 10% of sales go to Manawatu Alley Cats Trust.

😾 The Dream of Separation — By DALeast in Paris, France 🇫🇷
DALeast’s official site lists the 2019 Paris work as The Dream of Separation, and that title fits the image beautifully. His signature tangle of metallic lines makes the two cats feel as if they are colliding, splintering, and vibrating all at once.More: Street Art by DALeast – In Paris, France

😺 Cat! — By Näutil in Réthoville, Manche, France 🇫🇷
Näutil keeps things loose, playful, and full of character here. The graffiti cat feels wonderfully expressive without needing much realism. That is why it pops so nicely against the wall.More: Cat! – Street art by Näutil in Réthoville, France (9 photos)

😸 Pelle Svanslös and Maja Gräddnos — By Charlie Granberg in Uppsala, Sweden 🇸🇪
Charlie Granberg gives Pelle Svanslös and Maja Gräddnos a bright and friendly presence, but the mural is bigger and more site-specific than it first looks. Destination Uppsala highlights it as a 15-meter mural of Peter-No-Tail and Molly Cream-Nose in Påvel Snickares Gränd, which makes it feel completely at home in the city that gave the character life.💡 Nerd Fact: Pelle’s stories carry more history than the phrase “beloved children’s cat” might suggest. The official Pelle Svanslös site says the character began on Uppsala radio in 1937, and the books quietly folded in wartime Sweden through blackout rules, ration cards, and even a Danish cat nickname that plays on Quisling.

❄️ Summer and Winter — By Braga Last One in Les Pennes-Mirabeau, Bouches-du-Rhône, France 🇫🇷

♻️ Iberian Lynx — By BORDALO II in Lisbon, Portugal 🇵🇹
BORDALO II does not just depict a lynx. He builds it out of the waste we leave behind. That makes this street art animal both beautiful and unsettling, and it makes the environmental message hard to miss.💡 Nerd Fact: This animal choice hits even harder now. Reuters reported that the Iberian lynx was moved from Endangered to Vulnerable in 2024, while BORDALO II’s own Big Trash Animals statement says the whole series is built on the contradiction of using waste to depict creatures whose habitats are damaged by waste.

🐯 The Cat — By Dan Leo at Waterford Walls, Waterford, Ireland 🇮🇪
Dan Leo’s mural feels sharp, graphic, and almost totemic. Waterford Walls listed it simply as “The cat” and placed it on Park Road opposite People’s Park, which suits the piece perfectly. The bold shapes and color blocks give it a clean punch that reads from far away.More: Cat Mural by Dan Leo (+ 4 more animals)

⭐ Cute Star Cat — By Sagie in Jönköping, Sweden 🇸🇪
Sagie leans into softness here, and it works beautifully. In the artist’s post about the mural, he notes that one ear was actually made of wood and glued onto the wall, giving the dreamy cat a subtle sculptural twist.

🌿 Rustle in Feilding — By SWIFTMANTIS in Feilding, New Zealand 🇳🇿
SWIFTMANTIS uses a highly detailed style here, but the story behind the mural is just as memorable. On the official project page, the artist explains that Rustle traveled from London to Feilding mid-pandemic to be reunited with his mum Sophie after six months apart. The painted leaves make that real cat feel like it is quietly spying on the city from its own green hideout.🔗 Follow SWIFTMANTIS on Instagram
🫒 Olive — By SWIFTMANTIS in Christchurch, New Zealand 🇳🇿
This mural lands because it is deeply personal. On the official mural page, SWIFTMANTIS describes Olive as a Christchurch city stray painted for Flare Street Art Festival to help her find a home, and the note now happily adds that she has since been adopted. That turns the wall into more than a portrait. It becomes a public act of care.🔗 Follow SWIFTMANTIS on Instagram
💖 Neon Cat — By David Speed in London, England 🇬🇧

💕 We Will Meet Again… — By Unknown Artist in Unknown Location 🌍

🪟 Stained Glass Cat — By Kateryna Shelyhina in Unknown Location 🌍

🚐 All Cats Are Beautiful — By Pro Boy Nick in Unknown Location 🌍
The charm here is how temporary the art is. Pro Boy Nick turns a dirty van window into a surprisingly elegant cat portrait. It proves that even street grime can become a pretty great canvas.💡 Nerd Fact: This sits inside a broader street-art lineage sometimes called reverse graffiti. In a Guardian piece on Paul “Moose” Curtis, the method is described as making an image by removing grime instead of adding paint, which means the drawing is literally made out of the clean parts.

✊ Cats Against Racism — By Unknown Artist in Adelaide, Australia 🇦🇺

💡 Cat Lights — By Unknown Artist in Zelenogradsk, Russia 🇷🇺
These cat lights are not a typical graffiti mural, but they show how deeply feline culture is built into Zelenogradsk’s public space. The official Visit Kaliningrad guide describes Kurortny Avenue as a street full of cat-themed urban details, including cat traffic lights, murals, and even a Cat Museum. It is public art, local identity, and pure charm all rolled into one small detail.💡 Nerd Fact: Zelenogradsk did not stop at cute cat details. The official Visit Kaliningrad guide says the town’s cat museum helped set the feline theme for the whole place, and its event calendar even lists “Zelenogradsk Cat’s Birthday” on March 1.

🐈 Katzenstele — By Siegfried Neuenhausen in Braunschweig, Germany 🇩🇪
This monument has a very different energy from the murals in this post. The Städtisches Museum Braunschweig identifies it by its official title, Katzenstele, and notes that the large sculpture has been part of Braunschweig’s cityscape since 1981. It feels solemn and affectionate at the same time.💡 Nerd Fact: This monument is so woven into Braunschweig that the city still plans around it. In a 2023 document, Braunschweig described the Katzenstele as a popular photo motif and a special attraction for children, which is why officials approved work on a new pedestal to keep bins and bikes from crowding it.

⬛ Black Shadow — By Unknown Artist in Unknown Location 🌍
This piece proves how little it can take to bring a wall to life. A simple black cat silhouette tucked into a niche feels just right. It almost looks like the building was simply waiting for it.
🐈 Cat Meets Cat Graffiti — By Unknown Artist in Unknown Location 🌍
This is half artwork and half perfect timing. The real cat passing the line-drawn graffiti cat is magical. It turns an already nice street piece into one of those rare moments that feels almost too good to be accidental.
🪨 Painted Cat Rocks — By Unknown Artist in Unknown Location 🌍

💨 Smoke Cat on the Wall — By 0331C in Unknown Location 🌍

🐱 Banksy’s Gaza Kitten — By Banksy in Gaza, Palestine 🇵🇸
This piece hits hard because the kitten is playful while the setting is anything but. ABC News reported that the mural was painted on the remains of a home in Beit Hanoun destroyed during the 2014 war in Gaza. That contrast makes the image impossible to take casually.💡 Nerd Fact: The kitten was never meant to function as a standalone mural. Reuters noted that Banksy folded it into a satirical mini-video about Gaza and said he used a kitten because people online click on cats when they would otherwise scroll past destruction.

“Wild Child” by HERA in Civitacampomarano, Italy.
HERA about Wild Child: Choosing a stray cat as the hero of a piece of public art is my way of attempting a balance between the existing monuments of some pompous monarchs or war generals and the real inhabitants of a place. I want the little ones, the real ones, the actual souls of the streets to be recognized. I want to pay homage to the ones who surely have fought through their fair share of struggles, and have their scars to prove it, but chose to for the most days just quietly exists, mind their business and remind us to enjoy even the uneventful days.

Translation of the murals text: The children asked the fox how to escape from everyday life. He answers “it’s easy, all you need is to open a book”

By HERA in Karlstad, Sweden for Karlstad Street Art curated by Huderrederre.
HERA: Because I work when I freestyle i came to the wall without a sketch and spend my time listening to what locals said about Karlstad. Every detail of this artwork was inspired by some info I came across at the spot, but also its overall theme about hospitality.
The words on the upper left side read “Sola i Karlstad” which was the nickname of one particularly friendly tavern waitress and innkeeper in the city back in the 18th century; Eva Lisa Holtz. I think it’s absolutely amazing that the city even has a statue for her. How many cities in the world can say that they consider a sunny disposition and kindness as monument-worthy traits? I just love that!
So, that and the fact that being a good host is a ton of effort, I felt like I should dedicate this mural art to everyone who uses their time on earth to nurture others. And to unite others, no matter how far apart they usually sit.
