Welcome to ByCats4Cats

Cats are Awesome…

But then again so are all creatures!

In the past I have made custom mascot costumes of the cat variety because it was a hobby of mine… a release for my creative need of self expression. I am proud to say that in May of 2012, I made the move to make mascot creation my full time career. BC4C now accepts commissions for custom wolves, dogs, ferrets, raccoon's… anything your heart desires! You can find BC4C creations in Canada, Australia, Germany, Belgium, England, Japan… and more.

I am especially proud of the unique Lion’s Manes that are made with multi-colored long pile fur for extra bounce and poof. You will not see these awesome manes anywhere else! Also our special 3D/Following eyes make it look like the creature is looking at you no matter what its position! Check it out in the gallery.

If you like what you see and would like BC4C to make a critter for you… please first go to our ‘Estimator’ page to get an estimate of what your suit may cost. If you are ready to put down a deposit, contact us for a quote by going to the quote page. I am usually booked 3-6 months in advance and open for new customers quarterly. Please include any reference art you may have as well as a potential due date. A non refundable deposit of 30% of the quoted price is due to reserve a spot in our queue. Note: At this time we do not offer moving jaws nor ‘digitigrade legs’.

So here at BC4C we focus on everyone… Though cats still have a special place in my heart.

ByCats4Cats.com was started by Eric E Stevens also known as ‘Snap E. Tiger’ in 2009.

Through fumbling and cursing, Eric was able to complete his first tiger costume in 2001 and over the years, 200+ costumes have been made for customers all over the world.

After quitting his job at PayPal.com in May of 2012, BC4C became a full time business. Currently, besides Eric, ByCats4Cats has one full time employee.

Eric lives with his husband Deron in White Bear Lake, Minnesota.
