Welcome.

Have you ever been out and looked at yourself, then looked at your kids and thought "I look like these kids followed me out of the Baby Gap store at the mall"?

I feel your pain. I've been there.

As the mother of four wee gothlings, I've spent more than my fair share of hours strolling up and down countless aisles in local department stores, hoping to find just one item that would be appropriate for my children. I just felt weird dressed in my finest Dark Angel, Retail Slut, or Morbid Threads, while pushing the stroller containing a glittery-pink little girl.

Face it, I don't look like the other PTA moms. Why should my children look like theirs?

Out of this immense frustration was born the idea to create that which I could not find: alternative fashions for alternative kids.

I present to you: Bats! meow...

We are a very small company located in central Indiana. We do not have a storefront and exist solely online, so I have no overhead to contend with. This ensures you will receive fair and reasonable pricing. We use top quality materials and our printed items will enjoy a long life, even on the kids. We're extremely committed to customer service and satisfaction and will welcome your comments and suggestions. Send us a good one, and we may reward you with a gift certificate for use on your next Bats! meow... purchase.
