A charming, grease-stained portrait of your pet as the trusty garage mechanic, wrench in paw beside a classic car, painted from your photo with true likeness. Free preview in minutes, likeness guaranteed.

Mechanic Cat Portraits — questions
Will my cat's portrait actually look like them?
That's the whole point of our process. Your cat's exact markings are logged from the photo and checked on the finished painting — the white patch, the notched ear, the odd-coloured eye all stay.
How do I order from the Mechanic Cat Portraits collection?
One photo is enough to start. You'll see a free preview first, then choose digital delivery or a framed canvas when you check out.
Does this suit cats as well as dogs?
It's tuned for cats specifically — feline face shape, whiskers and coat patterns are handled differently from dogs. We also keep breed guides for 60 cat breeds.
How quickly will I get it?
The free preview takes minutes, digital galleries arrive within hours, and prints ship in 5–7 business days.
