Cat Country (brand)


Cat Country is a brand name used for a variety of country radio stations in numerous broadcast markets in the United States. Although the logo of a cat's face or claw is shared among these stations, most of these radio stations are not associated with one another. The "Cat Country" branding is particularly common among country stations formerly owned by Citadel Broadcasting.

General theme
