Felt Black Cat - Fat!


Remember the trouble I had convincing my scanner that green fuzzy things are REALLY green and not various shades of blue-tinged charcoal?

Well, the scanner is rebelling again. This time, it doesn't like black felt cats -- well, a single fat black felt kitten whose color is probably closer to very, very dark grey.


The scanner thinks the kitty is the color of plums or ripe red grapes!

Trust me, folks, this fat cat truly is dark charcoal grey bordering on black, with a red-and-green tartan plaid ribbon done up in a triple bow.


Just so you know what you're bidding on, here's a black-and-white scan:


The rest of the scans that show a reddish-purple cat are not accurate. OK, the red-and-green ribbon is rendered pretty well -- the green is actually a bit brighter -- but the cat is definitely off-color.

Cantankerous scanners aside, this plump little black felt cat is quite adorable, with green plastic eyes, black plastic nose and a swish of transparent whiskers. For her size -- about 4-1/2 inches long and 3 inches high -- she looks very well fed, indeed, but she actually weighs less than 2 ounces.


I don't know who made this kitty, nor her age, but I've had her tucked away for perhaps 6 years and she wasn't new then. The ribbon circling the cat's neck is crisp and bright, and the felt body is smooth and carefully stitched and glued with no holes or stains. At the base of the tail, the spot of glue is not nearly as noticeable as it seems. The felt fabric does attract dust and airborne debris like a magnet, so the kitty is best kept under glass or acrylic. If dust particles do settle on her, a quick swipe with a damp cloth works wonders.

Surely you have room in your collection of kittens for one more black cat. She promises not to gain any more weight.
