The story+
An embroidered cat zip up hoodie for the orange-cat owner who is not taking her turn with the brain cell today: NOT MY TURN with the brain cell. It is the internet's oldest orange-cat joke worn as a get-out-of-anything excuse, and a funny Christmas or birthday gift from her sister or best friend.
The back shows a chubby orange tabby lying belly-up on a worn rug with its tongue out and a blank, happy stare, while a tiny pink brain on little legs walks off toward a small grey cat. Orange, pink, cream, sage and navy give it a worn vintage storybook screen-print look, with NOT MY TURN in heavy orange letters above and WITH THE BRAIN CELL. in bold pink capitals below. On the front, a cat's face with a small unlit lightbulb above its head is embroidered on the left chest, and the word MEOW is stitched on the left cuff, in navy thread on Ash and white thread on Navy. Wear it over a tee on cold mornings, on the couch or out with friends. Original art, made for Graphic Tees Co. and printed and stitched the day you order it.

Questions+
- Does this cat zip up hoodie run true to size?
- The Not My Turn zip hoodie from Graphic Tees Co. is a regular fit Gildan 18600 in sizes S through 3XL. Order your usual size for a regular fit, or size up one for a roomier layer over a tee. Your first size exchange is free within 30 days of delivery.
- How warm is it, and does the zipper cross the print?
- It is an 8 oz/yd² fleece zip-up in a 50% cotton, 50% polyester blend with a metal zipper, pouch pockets and a hood. The big print sits on the back, so nothing crosses the zipper, and a small embroidered cat face sits on the left chest.
- How do I care for the embroidery on this hoodie?
- Zip the Graphic Tees Co. hoodie, turn it inside out and wash cold with similar colors, then tumble dry on low or hang dry. Skip bleach and do not iron over the stitching. The cat on the chest and the MEOW cuff are stitched thread, which keeps its shape wash after wash with gentle care.
- Is it a good gift for an orange cat owner?
- It is a natural for the orange-cat owner, from her sister, partner or best friend, for Christmas or a birthday. The joke is the internet's brain-cell turn-taking line, worn as an excuse. Graphic Tees Co. offers it in sizes S to 3XL in Ash and Navy.
- When should I order it to get it by Christmas?
- Order by about December 8 to have your Not My Turn zip hoodie before Christmas. Each one is made to order and ships free in the US on orders of $45 or more, which this hoodie clears. Graphic Tees Co. also swaps the size once, free.
- How do I wash this hoodie?
- Inside out, cold water, gentle cycle. Skip bleach and fabric softener, then hang dry or tumble dry low. Never iron directly on the print.
