black_cat_05.JPGHi everyone  :hug:

I'd like to introduce my latest cat commissions.  He is created from recycled mink fur and has open/close eyes and mouth.  I had him mostly done before my head injury and it took me until yesterday to finish him - I'm thankful his collector was so patient! 

His pictures (his mouth is much redder in the pictures than in real life) and poses aren't perfect as I had such a headache while taking them, but it gives you an idea of what he looks like.  I hope you enjoy seeing him here  :rose:

The kitty is wonderful. Gorgeous eyes and the face/head is just perfection.
But I am so concerned about you.
Please be careful until they diagnose what is causing such pain.  :hug:
