THANKS!!!! I really love the face on this one - sort of patterned after Baby - the kitten of one of my collectors! :)

I do try to get better and better!! :) :) I'm doing the toes in a completely different way now - and will probably experiment with that some more. On some things I have gotten faster but then I just add in something else to do on detailing! lol!!

Vicky - have you done any more needle felting?????

Thanks!!!! :) :) :)

Was a total surprise to me that she's buy Diem along with Ayumu!!! I think she has stretched her budget a bit and won't be buying another for a while. She's going to make them up an environment complete with a hammock between two trees for Ayumu!! How kewl is that??!!

The whole pun is "Carpe Diem" (Latin) which is roughly translated as "Seize the day!"

I had been dithering around trying to find a good pun that would include the goldfish and then it just came to me!! :)

Didn't get to sleep until way late (gee, wonder why) so I'm running behind today!

THanks!!! :) :) :)

I'm really enjoying getting better at these as I go long!!

Cynthia - that is a super compliment!! Especially given that I have no Siamese! Years ago I had a wonderful half Siamese who did look purebred but that was back before they started making the faces more triangular. I am so tempted to get a Siamese kitty - especially when one of my collectors keeps sending me photos of her new Siamese kitten!! I'm just so green with envy!! LOL!!!
