Cat Fonts and Dingbats

A small collection of cat-related fonts to download, all either including cat outlines or with 'cat names'.

For anyone unfamiliar with dingbat fonts or fontbats, they are used like any other regular font once installed on your system, and are then available to any application that uses fonts; but instead of producing A-B-C etc, a picture outline is produced. These are small, scaleable vector graphics which can be resized and coloured to suit, and — with a suitable programme — manipulated in many other ways with various effects.

Each font name below indicates whether it is a regular font (i.e. a 'normal' text font), a dingbat, or fontbat/dingfont; and a small sample is also provided. Dingbat fonts include picture outlines only with no text elements, so you could not use them to 'write' anything with. On the other hand, fontbats (often called dingfonts) can be used to make banners, headers or special display features as they do contain an 'alphabetic' element: a regular text letter will be attached to or combined with a dingbat outline (e.g. the Cat Cat or Catstuff fonts) or the letters themselves can be formed from a dingbat element (e.g. Carrie Catt). Note that fonts of this type will not normally include a full character set: frequently, though not always, punctuation, numbers, and special characters may be missing.

All fonts are in TTF (True Type Font) format. Download the zip file, unzip the contents, and install the font on your system. If you are unsure how to do any of this, go to this page at Dingbats-UK for assistance.

You should abide by any terms of use specified by the font designer: if applicable, these are normally to be found in a readme file in the zip downloaded.
