Bakeneko Demon Cat Japanese Organic T-shirt

Design Inspiration

「化け猫」 — Bakeneko — “The Supernatural Cat.”

Inspired by Bakeneko, the mysterious supernatural cat of Japanese folklore, this design transforms the familiar feline into a fierce yōkai presence. Its piercing eyes, exaggerated fangs, elongated jaw, and mask-like expression evoke the strange and unsettling spirit of Japan’s legendary shape-shifting cats.

The Japanese inscription 化け猫 (Bakeneko) literally refers to a “changed” or “supernatural cat”—a cat believed in traditional folklore to gain mysterious powers and take on an otherworldly form. Blending Japanese yōkai imagery with a bold, tattoo-inspired composition, this design is made for those drawn to folklore, supernatural creatures, and the darker side of traditional Japanese art.

My order should be here by now, but I still don’t have it. What should I do?
Before getting in touch with us, please help us out by doing the following:

• Check yourshipping confirmation email for any mistakes in the delivery address.
• Ask your local post office if they have your package.
• Stop by your neighbors in case the courier left the package with them.
  

Pro tip: Package theft is on the rise— If you’re expecting a home delivery and you know you won’t be home to accept it, use an address where you know you’ll be!

If you did find a mistake in your delivery address, we can send you a replacement order, but shipping will be at your own cost.

ORDERS

How are your products made?
We work with a reliable, high-quality print-on-demand drop shipper. They have locations worldwide, so depending on where you are, your orders are printed and shipped from the facility that can do it most efficiently!

How do I track my order?
If your shipping method includes tracking, you’ll receive a tracking link via email when your order ships out. If you have any questions about your tracking or shipment, drop us a line at : support@samuraioriginal.com.

Because your purchase is custom printed exclusively for you, it will only qualify for replacement, return or refund if:

• (i) the product itself is flawed
• (ii) the quality of the printing is poor
• (iii) the final product is notably different from the product presented on the order screen.

If your purchase meets the above criteria, email us as soon as possible, no later than 4 weeks after the delivery date. For packages lost in transit, all claims must be submitted no later than 4 weeks after the estimated delivery date. For any feedback, please email to: support@samuraioriginal.com, including:

• Your order number and the email address registered to the shipping information.
• Photo(s) of the affected items(s). Please include a photo of the whole item and any other photos that may help identify the issue

Wrong Address - If you provide an address that is considered insufficient by the courier, the shipment will be returned to our facility. You will be liable for reshipment costs once we have confirmed an updated address with you (if and as applicable).

Unclaimed - Shipments that go unclaimed are returned to our facility and you will be liable for the cost of a reshipment to yourself (if and as applicable).

We does not accept returns of sealed goods, such as but not limited to face masks, which are not suitable for return due to health or hygiene reasons. You hereby agree that any returned orders with face masks won’t be available for reshipping and will be disposed of.

If you accept a replacement product for the defective product, a new order is recreated immediately. The expected delivery date will be notified to you.

Anything else I should know?

We cannot accept returns or process refunds if:

• The item(s) is printed as ordered, but you “changed your mind”. We print on demand and therefore cannot accept returns with that inquiry.
• The return request is not viewed and approved by our team before you send the item(s) back.
• The item(s) have been worn or washed.
• The item(s) have been altered in any way or if they do not have the original tags.

We print your garments using the latest direct-to-garment (DTG) technology with high-quality inks that stay vibrant for years if cared for properly. This gives you tons of design and color options!

Note: The original manufacturer’s care label doesn’t account for our DTG printing process. For the best results, follow these simple care tips instead:

• Washing: Machine wash cold, turn the garment inside out, and use a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Wash with similar colors.
• Bleach: Only use non-chlorine bleach if you really need to.
• Drying: Tumble dry on low, but air drying (hang dry) is even better.
• Ironing: Use a cool iron and iron inside out. Don’t iron directly on the print.
• Avoid: No fabric softeners or dry cleaning.

Following these steps will keep the print from fading or cracking and prevent the garment from shrinking. High heat during washing or drying can damage it, so keep it gentle!
