Herend Cat and Kitten Figurines
Last updated . Written by Tamar Medzadourian, Paris Tableware, Ridgewood, New Jersey.
Herend's cats are mostly playful kittens painted in fishnet. On October 24, 2026, Paris Tableware had 20 Herend cat models in stock, and every one except the Herend Cat Nap Figurine came in more than one color. Blue, Raspberry and Black are offered most. The easiest way to choose is by pose.
