Kat Kong is a children's picture book created by Dav Pilkey.

The book parodies King Kong, depicted as a cat. Harcourt Brace & Company published this title in 1993. According to Pilkey, “The illustrations in this book are manipulated photographic collage, heavily retouched with acrylic paint.” The photographs of the animals are of Pilkey’s own pets. The book is dedicated to Nate Howard, who tamed the "savage" cat. As a joke, the book has been rated TS, meaning “Terribly Silly.” The sequel to this book is Dogzilla, which spoofs Godzilla.
