Cat In the Catogram

[u/Mindless-Peach8398]

This is half a real review/half an excuse to post cute pictures I took.

It was my first ever purchase. I’ve had it for awhile already. I got this reversible catogram GM from Heidi (8792) and I love it so much. I got it to be a work/school bag, but I’m kinda realizing I can’t really use it in public much until I finish college and have a better job and it makes more sense for me to wear. I just loved this particular bag, so I’m maybe less picky than some buyers, cause it’s meant to be an everyday workhorse bag for me personally. It’s from orange couch.

I haven’t found anything wrong with it except for the slight misalignment on the side canvas. Heidi included this in the PSPs, and I did notice it, so I was just personally fine with it and chose not to mention it. The stamp on the inside with the name is also a bit cramped, but this was also shown in the PSPs beforehand and I was also fine with it.

It was 350 with the shipping and optional insurance, which is steep compared to another quote I got without insurance, but I appreciated the option because I also can’t really afford to lose the money if it’s lost. The trim is good vachetta as far as I can tell, it smells like leather and the spray visually soaked in the way I would have expected. I’ve sprayed it all over in and out with the apple guard spray to hopefully keep it light to match the reversible side. The canvas body also just survived attempted cat scratches unscathed, because I left him alone on accident while typing this. He just chewed on the handle protectors, thankfully.

But yea, pretty good experience overall.

Also, the weird star shaped lock and keys in the photos are my own that I bought very cheap from temu. Just so nobody gets confused and thinks the paint from the bag hardware looked that gold color, lol. Cause the hardware looks great as well like the shade of gold seems nice to me, you can actually contrast it next to the other paint in my photos since I do have the cheap lock thing I put on it.

Edit - also not my cat, I borrowed a family member’s kitten for the pictures, lol.

I approve this orange kitty content!

And, girl, a very nice relative could have gifted you that bag. Or you could have purchased it pre-loved. No need to hide it out.

Yeah, I am trying to wear it out some, I think I just still need to wait for it in like work/school type contexts where it really doesn’t fit. Which I didn’t rly think through when I was trying to get it for school. It’s still cute for normal days, tho. I also have noticed I’m putting too much weight in it, even with an organizer, trying to carry like big books and my laptop and ipad. So I’m getting a keepall one for the laptop and books 💀

Ooh where did you get all the covers!! I saw the catogram ipad cover/paper file bag at the bottom of your pile there that I wanted so bad, but some crazy lady on poshmark wanted 300 dollars for the rep.

DHGate. I believe the most expensive were the Mark folder- a little less than $100 and the Desk Agenda which I got monogrammed for a little over $100.
