If you’ve ever lost an evening scrolling through pictures of other people’s cats, this one’s for you. Ma Ma Meow brings more than 1,000 cat stamps from around the world to the Thailand Stamp Museum – proof that postal services everywhere share your priorities.

Meet the cats behind the stamps

The centrepiece, ‘Every Cat Tells a Story’, spotlights 100 cats submitted by members of the public, each with a short story. Forget famous felines: these are ordinary cats curled up on someone’s sofa – arguably far more interesting if you’re a cat owner.

There’s also a guide to 20 popular cat breeds for anyone keen to learn more about the animals behind the stamps.

Turn your own cat into a stamp

The exhibition isn’t just for looking. At the ‘Make Your Cat Stamp’ station,  visitors can transform a photo of their cat into a stamp design, adding to the museum’s collection with every contribution.

Elsewhere, ‘Meow Mission’ invites visitors to fold origami cats to add to the exhibition. Cat-loving collectors can also browse the new iStamp collection and hunt down a series of especially cute stamps around the museum.



When: August 15–October 18, 2026; Wednesday–Sunday, 8.30am–4.30pm (closed Monday, Tuesday and public holidays)

Where: Thailand Stamp Museum, Saphan Kwai, Bangkok. Nearest station: BTS Saphan Kwai

Enquiries: 02 271 2439
