Mash, a lovable fuzzball of a feline, is honored with his very own lineup of matching heels that should appeal to the crazy cat lady in all of us.

Mash looks like he's falling asleep on the job.

You know you've made it when you get your very own line of fashionable shoes. You're an icon. You're a style setter. You're a squishy-faced cat named Mash.

Mash is an Instagram celebrity in Japan with 182,000 followers who hang on every furry photo of him playing with toys, sitting on pillows or yawning. Now he has a series of women's shoes made in collaboration with Japanese fashion brand Randa. The line includes a selection of fake-fur pumps in hues that match Mash's own beige-ish/orange color scheme.

The fashion star of the bunch is clearly the pair of shoes that also have a plush version of Mash's head perched at the side of the heel. Each pair features a cat footprint on the bottom of the sole. Most of the shoes will be available in both Randa stores and online (you made need a proxy buyer if you're outside Japan) in October. The Mash-faced pumps, though, are limited to certain stores only.

Now all we need is a line of Grumpy Cat hats. Oh wait...those already exist.
