When Catlanta, an Atlanta-based street artist makes a drop of his latest magnetic cat creation, he sparks a citywide hunt.
“Happy Record Store Day,” he wrote from the Catlanta Twitter account yesterday, with a picture of his latest hidden cat. “Get hunting.”

His magnetic works are new, but his name and symbol have been around the Atlanta area for years. He writes that his goal is simply to get people outside and looking around at their own city.
