Spike goes with Le Chapeau...


(new pottery by Gary Rith)
OK, you saw Penny in her little holiday winter outfit yesterday, it got me thinking.....but dressing a cat is, well, a challenge, NO?

In pottery cat news, I have tried so hard to sculpt cats for years with little success. I draw them very well, but sculpting was hard...until this week. The wife wants a creamer with a cat on the handle---her grandmother had one that broke, except for the cat, and Claudia wants a cat on the handle mug....I'm working on it guys.....

    Spike looks completely thrilled about the chapeau. I'm trying to put antlers on my three!

    LOL at Spike! oooh, if looks could kill....
    As Cleopatra would say (if I were to try that trick with her), "We are not amused." Because cats use the "royal WE" as I'm sure you already knew. :)

    Spike is PISSED! He prefers you keep that sort of tom foolery to Penny.
