A friend of my mother's is a whiz at creating custom-made Christmas ornaments in the shape of—well, anything, I guess. But Mom gave her a picture of our cats and she returned little stuffed ornaments that look like Hilbert and Charlie. Here is Charlie ignoring his ornament while Marian holds it up to his face.
As you can imagine, Charlie wasn't especially cooperative with my photographic endeavors. However, this one does a good job of showing just how good the ornament is. It really does look like Charlie.
It's a great ornament....but that could be a little creepy too
Off with his head!!! Oh, it's just an ornament. How is a kitty supposed to respond?
Can I get one of each of my adult daughters?
I'd like to break them in their presence just to tick them off
(only joking, the Mrs would be horrified and I'd be hanging on the tree then)
Maybe Charlie's wondering why on earth you need that ornament when you've got him! Besides, he looks like a teen already, & the ornament kitten looks like his younger self.
I was just thinking how sad it is that he's grown past that incredibly adorable tiny kitten stage. :0(
Yeah, how do they get so lanky so quickly? They grow into those big ears & paws too quickly & their dedicated photographer should document accordingly.
Agreed!!
Mom could make a bundle selling those on Etsy.
She's probably already making a bundle on pet-portrait pillows on Etsy; ornaments next December, if not already sold & shipped!
I see your cat bauble and I'll raise you this,

--and is that Fred Trump behind him?
Looks much more like one of my yerba mate gourds with a bombilla.
Yes - home of Uruguayan President Luis Batlle Beres, April 28, 1958.
We want to see Hilbert and his ornament, too.
Indeed!!
Alas, Kevin's gonna make us wait until next Friday. Don't you think that the cats should get two days a week, or both should appear on Fridays, together or singly?
Of course. Too much nonsense about politics and policy here instead of the really important stuff, cats.
Well, in all fairness, I appreciate much of the political stuff, but glaze over when some of the numbers & charts prove me to be one of Anerica'a innumerates. Simple arithmetic wasn't challenging, but when eighth-grade algebra teacher "proved algebraically that Robert E. Lee should have been hanged," he lost me...
Can she do one of the monkey?
I still use your Inkblot ornament as my Facebook Avi around Christmastime.
