The Gat Perich International Humor Prize, (Premi Internacional d'Humor Gat Perich) is an international award to cartoonists or humorists given in memory of Spanish cartoonist Jaume Perich (1941–1995). It has been awarded since 1995. The prize consists in a silver figure of one of the famous cats drawn by Perich, holding a pencil. It has also been awarded at the Gat Perich Honours Awards series, recognising the career and work of veteran cartoonists and humorists who have become benchmarks for the contemporary generations.
