A Note From the Founder & CEO of Meowingtons

If there’s a time for women entrepreneurs to prevail, it’s now. I won’t be bullied into submission over something I’ve worked so hard for.

Being involved in a lawsuit is irritating and at times distracting. Rather than let Mr. Zimmerman’s harsh and undignified comments get me down, I am instead re-energized to continue building my business, serving loyal customers and the larger Meowingtons.com community to make it even better with more cat-themed fashions, accessories, and pet products than ever before. I want this matter to serve as an example to encourage every woman business owner to stand up for themselves, especially now when women’s rights and equality are in the public eye during Women's History Month.

I also don’t want to lose sight of what’s important at hand here. I started meowingtons.com as a place for cat lovers to unite, share, and most importantly laugh over the undeniably hilarious creatures we call cats. I’ll be even more energized through this ordeal if cat lovers would come together and create more life-changing bonds between humans and cats by supporting the Humane Society and all the hard work of its volunteers who have dedicated their lives to saving animals and finding them forever homes. 

Community support is really appreciated via sharing this post, leaving a comment, and if you’d like, donate to the Humane Society here:

    Well deadmau5’s business is more successful than yours so maybe this has nothing to do with women’s rights?


  • JIM

    Deadmau5 has more of a claim to it than you. The mau5 will prevail!

    I could say a lot, but at the core, I think it’s awesome that you are fighting for your trademark. He and his affiliates were also reported to the F.B.I. for some things that are much more serious than this before news of this became public. I really do hope you win.

    Deadmau5’ been using that name for ages… It’s too original to coincidentally be “discovered” by another entity…
    Give it back to Joel !

    DeadMau5 has been using this name for WAY! longer than you… change your name that’s the simple solution. hope he runs you into the ground.
