Frequently Asked Questions
How many cat face emoji are there?
Nine, mirroring the main human expressions. They came as a complete set from Japanese carrier icons rather than being added one at a time.
Why use a cat kiss instead of ๐?
It lands lighter. The animal framing removes weight from the gesture, which makes it usable between friends where the human version might read as too much.
Do the cat faces have skin tones?
No. They are animal faces rather than people, so the modifiers that apply to human emoji do not apply to them.
