Who is Klever Kitten?

Reading-Area_forweb.jpg

With her four eyes and nine lives, Klever Kitten is known for her wicked usage of words and her passion for pink cocktails. She has a wide following from her blog, Klever Kitten’s Corner, that’s inspired by her daily life. Her favorite book is One Hundred Years of Caviar, and she enjoys searing her signature Szechuan Tuna for friends.

Klever Kitten’s crew consists of Kool Kat—hopelessly devoted and permanently in the friend zone (for now). Loyal, romantic, and just self-aware enough to know he’s outta Klever Kitten’s league. Frisky Feline, Klever Kitten’s ride-or-die, lives life at full volume. She’s flirtatious, fearless, and one cocktail away from texting her ex. Pissy Pussykat is moody, medicated, and radically honest about both. She feels everything deeply and judges accordingly. And then there’s Tricky Tomkat—shameless yet harmless, and permanently circulating at the hottest parties in town. Unfortunately for him, most of the numbers he collects are fake.

While Klever Kitten adores her friends, she’s also proud of her independence. She’s a huge fan of traveling solo to exotic places like the Maldives. And when she’s sipping on a pink Paloma at one of their pristine resorts, she’ll get back to you when she wants to.

Klever Kitten Creator

Marisa Howenstine, a graphic designer and award-winning photographer, fell hard for Hello Kitty at age six when shopping for back-to-school supplies at San Francisco's Stonestown Galleria. When Marisa got older, she noticed a serious lack of stylish cat stationery and specialty gifts for grown-ups. This inspired her to create Klever Kitten.

A SF native now soaking up the sun in Los Angeles, Marisa has a penchant for all things pink. Interesting fact— while Marisa loves cat characters, she's deathly allergic to cats IRL.

 

Marisa can always be found in a cool cocktail lounge with her pink Fendi cat-eye glasses—and the same goes for Klever Kitten.
