What Makes It Uncommon

You can only toil away on your computer screens for so long before you need to give your brain and eyes a break. Instead of doomscrolling, adopt a few paper pets to watch over your desk and keep you company. You don’t need to be an origami master to fold your own clowder of kitties of pack of puppies—each envelope contains 50 pre-printed paper squares with instructions, just choose between cats (for beginners) or dogs (for a range of skill levels).

  • Includes 50 pre-printed origami paper squares and instructions.
  • Choose from Cats (beginner) or Dogs (beginner/intermediate/advanced).
  • Made in China.
  • Add a little greenery to your display with some DIY Mini Unkillable Paper Desk Plants.
  • Sold individually.

    Usually ships within 24 hours.

    Way too complicated . Not fun.

    I thought shis was something I could do with my granddaughter. WRONG. I couldn't figure it out and neither could my daughter who is an elementary school teacher. A complete waste of money

    Response from merchant

    Thank you so much for sharing your honest feedback about your recent purchase. We were very disappointed to hear that you and your daughter had difficulty with the assembly, especially when you were hoping to enjoy it as an activity with your granddaughter. We sincerely apologize for this frustrating experience. We strive to create products that are accessible and enjoyable for everyone, and we are really sorry that it was not the case. To see if we can still help you succeed, we will be reaching out to you shortly via email to share a detailed, step-by-step video guide. Watching the assembly visually often makes a big difference! However, your satisfaction is our top priority. If, after watching the video, you still feel this product is not a good fit, we are happy to process a full return for you immediately. We never want you to feel that you have wasted your money.

    Not what I expected.

    Response from merchant

    Hello. Thank you for your feedback regarding the assembly process. We truly apologize that the directions were unclear and caused difficulty. We understand that assembly difficulty varies from person to person, and while this product is really popular and usually receives great feedback, we respect that it wasn't the ideal experience for you. We would love to share a step-by-step assembly video in case that helps, as a visual guide will always make the process easier. Unfortunately, there is no contact associated with the review, but you can always reach out to us by email at help@uncommongoods.com or by phone at 888-365-0056, we are always happy to help. Also, please remember that we offer a forever return policy. If you decide this item isn't right for you, you can return it anytime. We look forward to connecting and helping you resolve this!


    Wonderful gift

    Very clever idea


    Disappointing gift to cat lovers

    Thought this was a creatively cute idea for a surprise 'I'm thinking of you' gift. Sadly it didn't go over big. The recipients couldn't assemble and had to watch the video. They didn't love it. Guess it's the thought that counts.


    Oragami cats

    Easy and fun to do. Very relaxing.


    Very challenging

    Very dissapointing as I have not been able to realise one animal.


    Purrfect gift for my Veterinary support staff!

    As a Veterinary Hospital Manager, I'm constantly looking for a gift that is new and different. Bonus points for animal themed of course!


    Cute Small Gift

    This is a fun gift to give to a friend that likes small gifts or quick activity to keep their hands busy at their desk. Quality paper and adorable cats


    Love These!

    Bought several sets for family and friends.


    i WOULD BUY THIS AGAIN

    This item was bought as a gift and it was a huge hit. It was great to see the finished product sitting on my niece's desk at her office.



    Are the dog breeds identified and how many different ones are there? Also, do you have the Boston Terrie?

    Verified reply from Sofia

    among the 50 pieces of paper, how many different kinds of cats are there?

    Verified reply from Allison

    There are five breeds in total in two sizes.


    How difficult is it to fold the Paper Cats? Could an 11 year old do it? Could a 6 year old do it?

    Verified reply from Allison

    Thank you for your question! The recommended age is 12 and above.
