Kit-Cat Clock® Limited Edition Red, White & Galaxy Blue - Retro Cat Wall Clock with Moving Eyes and Tail, Battery Operated, Made in USA

Growing up my grandmother had the original of this in her kitchen. It was my favorite thing in her house. My grandmother passed away and my mother bought me the clock and I absolutely love it.

This was a gift for my daughter's new apartment and she LOVED IT!!! 😍

purrfect. bright solid color. brings me joy, one of my favorite items in my home. bit loud but I do not mind.

This goofy thing is way cute. Works well and packaged well. Yes, it's rather small but size is stated in the listing so no surprises there. It fits my kitchen well. The only reason for the 4 stars not 5 is because its plastic and way over priced. Be careful popping the back off and on for batteries.

So I purchased three clocks and all have encountered the same issues. Either they are too loud or they stop moving after a day or two. I was able to resolve both of these problems. I do wish they told you in the instructions how to troubleshoot, but I have figured out a way, and I hope to help others the same. Try to do these 3 things if you are frustrated with your clock.1. If you use a nail in the wall, the clock has a tendency to slip head down wards which should be fine, but I have found that with all of the clocks that I used a nail, they all stopped wagging the motion after a little while. If you switch to a screw, it will keep the position of the clock in place and it would not slip head forward. I believe this causes the movement issue to go away. The reason here is the clock should be completely flush with the wall, this helps the movement.2. You should probably use a level. To get these perfect you should use a level.3. To help with the noise being too loud I found that if I used a very light silicone lubricant and applied just a tiny drop to the eye of the lower and upper portion that holds it in place as well as a tiny drop to the eye stems that rub against the black holder things the clock almost made no noise. The eyes is what’s causing all the noise and by putting some light silicone lubricant in those areas my noise completely went away.4. Lastly the lubrication of the eyes completely smoothes out the animation motion and helps with the animation to never stop if you followed all the steps above.That is all it takes. I wonder if this company should take a note and do something about it as it can help a lot of frustrated people, I know it helped me, I thought I had to return all 3 clocks back but nope all good.By the way, people are complaining about cheap quality for the price, you have to understand that this is a product made in US. Of course it will not be as cheap as a Chinese product. Same with a UK product being made in UK. People literally can’t read that it’s made in its own country, seriously. Other that that it’s a very cool clock, a legend and I’m totally glad to have 3 of them.

The Kit Cat Clock has been an American classic for decades. It's funny, cute and maybe too tacky for some folks but a lot of people (like me) love it. I read a lot of other customers' reviews before buying this and I recommend that you read some of the high rated reviews if you are planning to buy it so you know the "tricks" to getting it to work. It is somewhat fragile and it takes care to open it without damaging it, removing the foam insert, installing the batteries and putting the back part on again. You need to get the top of the back (up by the ears) in first and gently snap the panel in. It is also a good idea to use a screw rather than a nail to mount it since the screw should be more stable and you can adjust the small distance between the clock back and the wall as necessary to keep the tail assembly moving. You will also need to adjust the vertical angle a bit to keep the tail motion going. But I was very pleasantly surprised to see that, with careful preparation and installation, the krazy thing really works. The wagging tail assembly isn't even powered by a motor but just uses magnetic repulsion to keep the tail pendulum moving but it has continued to work for months now without any adjustment. It also keeps good time - just remember to only move the minute hand to set the time or you will probably break it. It really looks like a smaller version of the old AC electric Kit Cat Clock that I remember my aunt and uncle had in their house decades ago and the box says it's made in the USA. Good stuff!

Smaller than I had expected, and every few days I need to bump the tail to start moving again.

The media could not be loaded. I am sooo happy I finally went ahead and took the plunge on this clock. It’s such an eye catching accessory to my wall :-) Relatively quiet, not an issue, but of course there is somewhat of a clock noise (to be expected). It’s made of plastic which I don’t mind, and it’s very lightweight on my wall so I didn’t even need an anchor. It’s working smoothly. The only minor issue is the hands aren’t perfectly accurate. Because I’m not going to use it to tell time, this isn’t a huge issue.
