Cat in the Hat Hats
It's unlikely that Dr. Seuss knew he was creating an iconic character when he put a hat on top of a cat. Despite understanding he'd made a character that'd be read as someone more than eager to share good fun that is funny, hopes that it'd take on a life of its own and become more than a storybook figure were probably slim. Such is an artist's way. But that's exactly what happened!
From the page to playtime the Cat in the Hat is a figure all its own, and when we decide it's time to channel a bit of that energy, we start by donning the hat!
We don't need to describe it to you. You know we're talking about the towering top hat with red and white stripes and a slight lean. There are few hats as easily recognized, and when you think about it, most of them are top hats—but we digress. If you're ready to get in character, whether you're going full costume for it or keeping your Cat in the Hat moment a bit more low-key, we've got the topper you need! Plus a few styles to keep things fresh and versatile.
You know the look you're after. While exploring our selection, it simply comes down to choosing the one that fits that style and your budget.
Need a kids size? We've got three classic Cat in the Hat styles just for them! Pick between a soft fleece version, lightweight felt option, or another with wire in the brim for customizable shaping. Or consider a Cat in the Hat headband that miniaturizes the classic hat and pops it on a coil spring for extra wacky and wonderful movement!
Add that same headband to your list of adult options, then explore the classic options as well! Our Cat in the Hat hat, gloves, and bow tie kit comes with a simple wire-brim version and makes a perfect choice for teachers prepping for Read Across America or regular story times featuring Dr. Seuss fun! We offer the same hat separate from the additional accessories as well, just in case. Then our plush Cat in the Hat offers a deluxe look and feel.
Need something more casual but no less Seussical? Our available Cat in the Hat and Thing 1 and Thing 2 caps are exactly that! Fuzzy caps with embroidered character faces, bring Thing 1 and 2 on any adventure when you pair it with your regular wardrobe.
Meanwhile, a fuzzy Cat in the Hat hat with a mini Cat in the Hat hat on top just really—hats off to the idea! But the fun doesn't end there! Bring some playtime into the mix with Bricky Block snapbacks that would keep even rainy days a bit more entertaining.
From costume events to play and story times, this curated collection has a Dr. Seuss Cat in the Hat idea for every fan!
