    I haven't been posting much lately because it has been seriously dry at the thrifts...like weeks on end of nothing...like hit ones all over town and nothing...like 40 stops and nothing...

    Well that ended today! I recognized the Holt Howard cat immediately but couldn't figure out what it was for. Wall hanging? Then why the hole for the mouth. Quick internet search revealed that this pretty kitty is a string and scissor holder!

    I guess we don't use string like we used to...

    Dr Fluffy, this is for you if you'd like to add it to your kitty collection.

      My goodness this kitty is very popular. Thank you all for the kitty love and sweet comments. Amandajane, where did the scissors go? The bow?
