Description
A banned books tote bag for the proud childless cat lady, printed edge to edge and built to carry a full stack from the library. It celebrates women who love their cats and defend their libraries, and it says so plainly.
- All over print on both sides. The design wraps the whole bag rather than sitting in a small square.
- Medium weight 200 gsm polyester with double stitched seams, so it holds its shape under a full stack of books.
- Boxed corners and a non woven laminate interior give it structure and guard against spills.
- Three sizes with comfortable black cotton handles, made to order and shipped from the USA.
Give it to the banned book reader, the devoted cat mom, or the friend who deserves a bag as outspoken as she is. Carry it to the library, the book club, and the cat food aisle.
