Physical Appearance[]
Pirate Nyan Cat[]
It reuses the Original Nyan Cat sprite but with small differences, the colors appear duller making the cat seem dirty. Its fur is a Grullo Gray color with an eyepatch around its left eye, The blush on its cheeks still keeps the same color and the reflection in its eye is light cyan.
The Pop-Tart body has Ecru Beige crust with Rose Gold icing with Claret Maroon sprinkles covering the icing. It doesn't have a rainbow stream, instead it has a black pirate flag with it appearing to be ripped at the end of it along with a red skull at the top and red cross bones at the bottom of the flag.
Pirate Nyan Cat (Nyan Cat Collection)[]
The new design for the Pirate Nyan Cat went through a drastic change and improved from the original version. It still keeps the eyepatch around its left eye and dull color scheme excluding the tail and feet that keep the Original Nyan Cat's fur color. It now sports a dark red pirate hat with a gold outline around it as well as a skull in the center, furthermore it has a hook with a gold base with the curved part being silver.
The body is still a Pop-Tart, but it has Burnt umber red colored icing with black sprinkles with one of the four sprinkles in the bottom corner of the Pop-Tart being miss placed by 1 pixel to the left. The cat now has a new parrot companion with red, yellow and blue feather color combination bouncing on the edge of the cats Pop-Tart body. The pirate flag flowing behind the cat is still a black flag, but now it's a white skull in the center with white crossbones behind the skull instead of below it.

History[]
Back in 2013, the music used to be an accordion remix of the Nyan Cat Theme, but it has mysteriously been replaced by the music used for the Ninja Nyan Cat and then replaced again by the normal music.
The old music can be found on YouTube on a screen recorded video by AmazingNyanCat under the title "Pirate".

The 2013 main page Nyan Cat can be found on the Wayback Machine on the date of 29th June 2013. Sadly, the accordion music does not play.

Trivia[]
- This cat appears on the main page whenever it is Talk Like a Pirate Day.
- Although this nyan cat has been around since late 2012, the Pirate Nyan Cat only appeared on the main page in 2013.
- Triggering the epileptic seizure causing OMG! mode Easter Egg makes a navy-blue streak trail appear behind the flag. This glitch also happens with Nyan Cats that have no rainbows, such as Sad Nyan Cat
- The Pirate Nyan Cat is one of the rare few Nyans on Nyan.cat that has no rainbow trail.
Errors/Goofs[]
- The Nyan Cat Collection version of Pirate Nyan Cat's feet and tail keep the Original Nyan Cat's fur color instead of the grullo grey color.
