Before you make your portrait
Start with a photo of your own cat and choose a style that suits the result you want. Royal and vintage portraits add a formal costume or period mood. Watercolor makes a softer painted keepsake. Birthday scenes and playful illustrations offer a lighter way to celebrate their personality.
The photo should show the eyes, whisker area and full ears without heavy shadows. A front or gentle three-quarter view is a useful starting point. A stylized result can simplify fur patterns, so compare it with your original rather than expecting every detail to be identical.
Each style below leads to its own selected template in the creator. Examples are individual generated works and may show a cat or dog; they illustrate the template's look, not a guarantee of the same result from every photo.
Your first portrait is free with an account (email sign-ups require verification), without a card. PetImage supplies a downloadable digital image. If you plan to print it or add a name for a gift, check the file size and complete the layout in your preferred design or printing service.
A few useful details
What cat photo works best for an AI portrait?
A clear photo with your cat's face fully visible produces the best results. Natural lighting and a simple background help, but the AI can work with most casual photos.
Can I create portraits for multiple cats?
Yes. Upload a separate photo for each cat to create individual portraits. Each portrait uses one credit.
Which style should I choose for my cat?
Choose Royal Renaissance for a formal costume portrait or Watercolor for a softer painted keepsake. Compare the actual examples and choose the look you want.
