Cat Kaomoji
Cat kaomoji are cat faces built from letters and punctuation, such as (=^･ω･^=). They are text, not a cat emoji and not a picture. Copy the whole face so the ears and the mouth stay together. A short face fits a 32-character Discord name or a 30-character TikTok name. A plain-letter username will reject the face.

How do I copy a cat kaomoji?
Copy the whole card
Tap Copy. Do not select one character out of the middle of the face.
Paste it as one piece
Long-press the bio or name field and tap Paste. The ears, eyes, and mouth should arrive together.
Check the length
(=^･ω･^=) is 9 characters. If the field rejects the save, the line is over the limit or you pasted into a username.
Are cat kaomoji the same as cat emoji?
No. A cat emoji is a single picture character. The faces on this page are sequences. (=^･ω･^=) is 9 code points. ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ is 7. 🎀(=^･ω･^=)🎀 is 11. Screen readers may spell the punctuation instead of saying cat.
| Face | Characters | Left in a 32-character Discord name | Left in a 30-character TikTok name |
|---|---|---|---|
| Omega cat | 9 | 23 | 21 |
| Ain cat | 7 | 25 | 23 |
| Bow omega | 11 | 21 | 19 |
| Waving cat | 8 | 24 | 22 |
Where do cat kaomoji paste, and where do they fail?
They paste into a Discord display name or nickname (1 to 32), a TikTok display name (30) or bio (80), and an Instagram bio (150) or caption. They fail in the @username on those apps, because those fields allow plain letters, numbers, and a few marks such as underscore and period.
A rare piece can also fail by rendering as an empty box: the syllabics cat and the Arabic-letter mouth are the ones to test on your phone. The omega cat is the fallback. Other faces that are not cats live on kawaii symbols.
How do I put a cat face next to a name?
Style the name first if you want the letters to change, using cute fonts or the coquette font generator. Then paste one face after a space. A heart frame on the letters plus a bow on both sides of a cat will blow a 30-character name. Pick one decoration.
Frequently asked questions
What is a cat kaomoji?
A cat face built from letters and punctuation, such as (=^･ω･^=). It is text. It is not a cat emoji and not an image file.
How is a cat kaomoji different from a cat emoji?
A cat emoji is one picture character. A kaomoji is several text characters that look like a face when a font draws them in a row. Copy the whole face or the ears and the mouth split apart.
Where can I paste cat kaomoji?
Bios, captions, comments, and display names that accept Unicode. Discord display names allow 1 to 32 characters. TikTok names allow 30. TikTok bios allow 80. Instagram bios allow 150. An @username will reject the face.
Why does a cat face break in the middle?
The face is not one character. If you copy only an eye or a paw, the rest stays behind. Use the Copy button on the card so the whole string is copied.
Will these cat faces show on iPhone and Android?
The classic omega cat uses common punctuation, katakana middle dots, and Greek omega, which current phones draw. Canadian syllabics, Arabic presentation forms, and Thai letters in the tiny set can be missing on an older font. If a card is an empty box, switch to the omega cat or the dot-eyes cat.
How long is a typical cat kaomoji?
(=^･ω･^=) is 9 characters. ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ is 7. 🎀(=^･ω･^=)🎀 is 11. A 32-character Discord name can hold the 9-character face plus a short name. A 30-character TikTok name can too, until you add the bow on both sides and a long word.
