Kitty Came Home

Kitty ventures everywhere, far and wide and back in time. Everyday Kitty comes home with vintage surprises. Where she goes nobody knows. She collects fabrics, buttons and bits and pieces of pre-loved domesticity along her way. Kitty then fashions this collection into unique purses filled with memories and the adventures of Kitty.

Katrina Weber a.k.a. creator of Kitty Came Home

The devoted owner behind the Kitty Came Home range is Adelaide-based Katrina Weber. Weber began Kitty Came Home in 2004 with the ‘vintage clutch’ and today is pleased to see her growing product range and distribution Australia-wide.

After her studies, where she trained as a contemporary jeweller, Weber undertook a residency at the prestigious Gray Street Workshop, a considerable achievement in Australian jewellery practices. Today she makes her own range of contemporary jewellery, independent of Kitty, and exhibits in contemporary gallery spaces.

Weber’s Kitty-ethos involves the creation of products that give back to our world. With her mere two hands, in comparison to Kitty’s four paws, Weber outsources work locally, particularly to community organisations. As well, the Kitty Came Home range is made with consideration to our environment, using predominantly recycled materials that simultaneously reinvent cast aside snippets of domesticity.

While Weber is certainly the owner behind Kitty Came Home, anyone who has spent time with cats knows that they are independent beings that like to explore the world themselves and make their own tales
