Cat Country
For the Chinese novel by Lao She, see Cat Country (novel).
Cat Country is a country music brand name used for a variety of radio stations in numerous broadcast markets in the United States. Although the cat logo or a cat claw is shared among these stations, most of these radio stations are not associated with each other. The "Cat Country" (sometimes spelled "Kat Country") branding is particularly common among country stations currently or formerly owned by Citadel Broadcasting.
General Theme
The Cat Country branded radio station uses jargon that usually refers to a cat (or a tiger), such as where the cat lives (in a house), what noise a cat makes (roar or meow), and other words that are related to cats.
