The Cats Meow at McKinney Farmers Market: Handmade Art with a Global Spirit
Discover The Cats Meow: Where Each Piece Tells a Story
Step into a booth full of warmth, color, and curiosity—the world of The Cats Meow. At the heart of this artisan haven is Sandy Hitz, whose artistry has been richly seasoned by journeys through Parisian boulevards, English countrysides, and vibrant corners of Asia and the United States. Alongside John, her creative right-hand man and fellow traveler, Sandy brings handcrafted treasures, one-of-a-kind photography, and soulful custom creations to North Texas.
The Cats Meow is more than just a stall—it’s a testament to travel, discovery, and the joy of translating memories into objects that grace your home and your life.
“Art has the power to liberate us, to carry us beyond ourselves. Each piece I create is crafted to reflect that freedom, drawing inspiration from the beauty and stories around us.”
— Sandy Hitz
