About Catfluence
Hello and welcome to Catfluence, your premier destination for all things that are cool and have to do with cats! I’m Harris, the Founder and Chief Feline Officer, and I’m thrilled to lead a community where cat influencers and influencers with cats converge.
What Inspired Catfluence?
My journey into the world of feline influencers began in 2014, when I combined my new professional background in digital marketing with my personal passion for cats. Inspired by the influence of renowned cat personalities Grumpy Cat and Lil Bub, I created an Instagram account for my cats, Elliot and Olivia.
This experience laid the foundation for what would become Catfluence in 2017, a platform born from a blend of creative expression and a tribute to old feline friends. Catfluence’s logo honors Doober, a special cat who, although briefly in my life, left an indelible mark on my heart. I would also be remiss not to recognize my cherished childhood cat, Ativan.
From there, the account rapidly evolved into a vibrant platform spanning several social media channels, dedicated to featuring famous cats, cat people, brands, art, humor, culture, history, videos, and more. Our community thrives on engaging feline content showcasing the latest in cat-centric trends.
What Do We Do?
Our annual March Meowdness competition is a staple, bringing together the most charismatic catfluencers in a friendly and fun bracket competition that our fans adore. We take great pride in our blog, many of which are written by passionate fellow cat writers, a monthly newsletter to over 500 subscribers, our diverse network of catfluencers, affiliate partnerships and sponsorships with pawesome brands, podcast and event appearances, and an exclusive range of merchandise that cat lovers can’t resist.
Beyond entertainment, we are committed to giving back to the cat community. We support non-profits and rescue organizations, helping to make a difference in the lives of cats in need by sharing their content, making donations, and volunteering our time. It’s a passion that has grown from this account unexpectedly, but something very close to our hearts.
What Are Our Future Plans?
As we look to the future, we are excited to explore new opportunities and partnerships in digital spaces including podcasting, crypto, NFTs, the metaverse, and artificial intelligence, promising our community not just a front-row seat, but a chance to actively paw-ticipate in the next wave of digital innovation.
