Kitty Beans Playsets

Because every kid deserves a place to pounce.

About Us

Welcome to Kitty Beans Playsets

Kitty Beans Playsets was born from a lifetime of cat fur, cardboard box forts, and one big dream: to build a world where every kid (and cat) gets to play. We’re not just a store—we’re a slightly chaotic, always-loving, fiercely imaginative honorary cat kingdom, ruled by furry troublemakers and their loyal human staff.

We are: One founder, Steven (a human)
One co-founder, Leya (who says “after three cats, it’s all downhill”)
Eight current feline executives
Dozens of honorary members (real, stuffed, or imaginary.

Our leadership team includes:

Katniss – Director of Surveillance (particularly birds)
Roo – VP of Vertical Leaps
Mouse – Chief Lap Officer
Bear – Head of Security (mostly snoozing on the job)
Chewbacca – Intergalactic Communications
Princess – CFO (Chief Food Officer)
Butterball – Logistics (mainly the chaos kind)
Jack – Head of IT (Interrupting Tasks)
In memoriam: Panda – CSO (Chief Snuggle Officer) and our best boy.

And no team would be complete without the ghost of Kermit, the enormous Russian Blue who started it all in 1990. (I named him Kermit because I’m slightly color blind and he looked a little green. He didn’t mind.)

What We Believe:

We believe every backyard can be a castle, spaceship, or dragon cave. That play should be safe, imaginative, and joyful—for kids, cats, and any creature clever enough to sneak into a cardboard box.

We also believe in honorary cats. That means any beloved companion—real, plush, or drawn in crayon—can join our Honorary Cat Club. If they’ve caused delightful mischief, they go straight to the top tier.

Our brand lives at the intersection of high-quality play equipment and unapologetic whimsy. Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, or secret stegosaurus named Stacy, you’re welcome here.

Why the Toe Beans?

We originally launched as 18 Beans LLC—a nod to the total toe beans on a single cat. Multiply that by our in-house staff and you've got a whole bean economy. That’s where our Bean Bucks loyalty program comes in, rewarding our favorite humans for joining the fun.

So come for the jungle gyms and bouncy castles. Stay for the in-jokes, the fuzzy faces, and the honor of seeing your stuffed armadillo crowned Pet Royalty.

Kitty Beans: Big Play. Soft Paws.

Because every kid deserves a place to pounce.
