Ryo Yamazaki, a Japanese crafter and photographer, comes back with an expanded portfolio of cats wearing hats made from their own fur. Called “nukege hats” (nukege being the japanese word for ‘shedded fur’), the hats are made from old sheds molded into wacky shapes.
The idea came about when yamazki saw a lump of shed had accumulated on the floor that looked like a hat. He decided to mold it into a pointy hat and place it on one of his cat’s heads. Fast-forward several years and he has developed a passion for the feline fascinators that he now shares with his wife.
