The Kit-Cat Klock is a novelty wall clock introduced in the mid-1930s, and has become a part of Americana. It is shaped like a cartoon cat, with roving eyes and a moving tail.

The clock has also often been referred to as or assumed to be a "Felix the Cat" clock, due to a certain resemblance to the pioneering cartoon character. In 2007, the current owners of Felix launched a belated lawsuit against Kit-Cat for copyright infringement, and noted the occasional use of the "Felix" term in the company's marketing materials.
