Top 12 cat influencers to work with or follow

Hazel The Gato

At just 10 months old, Hazel was rescued from a California highway when she was just a few weeks old. Now “El Gato,” which means the Cat in Spanish, is working as a nano-influencer. This gray kitty likes to play with doorstops, hide near the toilet paper, and take long naps.  

Boris Katloff

Boris is a Sphynx who poses for the camera often. This hairless cat goes live on Twitch and YouTube two times a week, has his own website, and promotes his own merch, which includes a T-shirt and a notebook. This influencer takes a lot of adventures with humans, too. Some are vacations, like a recent trip to Seattle, while others are more chore-related. His 4K followers seem to like his holiday spirit as well.

Theo and Mina

Theo and Mina are two happy felines who keep pet owners up-to-date on the cat happenings in their world. From trying out a fancy, scoop-free litter box to letting others know about spooky birds on the TV, their owner loves to share the “tales of two kitties.” With almost 100K followers, these furry influencers make a regular appearance on TikTok. 

Nala Cat

Adopted from a shelter when she was a baby, Nala is an adorable, active cat who holds a Guinness World Record. For what, you ask? Nala has the highest number of followers on Instagram of any cat, at 4.3 million followers. With snaps of Nala in a cute bandana and dressed as Yoda, it’s easy to see how her social fame has led to a full merchandise line, complete with T-shirts, phone cases, and her own line of cat food. 

The Cat Lovers Club

The Cat Lovers Club is an online sanctuary for all cat lovers, with hundreds of pictures of cats from around the world. Followers are asked to submit their own pictures, which are hand-curated and shared on Instagram. From a toddler pushing her kitty in a stroller to cats entranced by TV, the club’s 5 million followers love the variety of pictures.  

Grumpy Cat

Grumpy Cat hit social stardom back in 2012 when his grumpy face went viral on Reddit. Since then, Grumpy Cat, who gets his name from the frown on his face, has racked up 2.5 million followers on Instagram. This feline has his own holiday special on DiscoveryPlus and has inspired countless memes and drawings. His festive snaps, like this one for St. Patrick’s Day, seem to be fan favorites. 

Simon’s Cat

Breaking from traditional furry influencers, Simon’s Cat is an animated cartoon series created by Simon Tofield that features a chubby white cat. TikToks of the cat resisting a bath and getting lost in the neighborhood keep his 2.2 million fans engaged. Recently, the animations went from black and white to color, which has also fueled engagement.   

Suki Cat

A real nature lover, Suki Cat is always exploring her outdoor surroundings. From sweater-wearing winter walks to smelling wildflowers with a bothersome bee, this cat is full of adventures. Suki recently got a brother, an energetic husky named Killua. The two went on their first trip together: a canoe trip in Alberta. 

Coby The Cat

Coby is a feline fashion influencer. Sporting athletic wear, a tuxedo for New Year’s Eve, and a “Squid Game” costume, Instagram followers can’t wait to see what the fluffy white cat will wear next. Coby isn’t afraid to try new dramatic looks either, and now fans are sending in photoshopped snaps of the fashionable cat, like this one where Coby tried out some new facial hair. 

Pooky The Munchkin

Five-year-old Pooky is all about making fans smile. She’s a rag-doll British shorthair mix with a cuddly appearance. She loves to sit on the piano while her human companion plays.

Monty and Molly

Monty and Molly both have chromosome abnormalities that are similar to Down syndrome in humans.

This dynamic duo was also featured in a book created by another influencer on our list, Simon’s Cat.

Mr. White

Mr. White has amassed 2 million followers on Instagram as a cancer survivor and all-around adorable cat. This 6-year-old is playful and has set a big goal: to be crowned Pet of the Year. This cat is on top of trends, too, with a recently released NFT and fashion-forward outfits.
