Mati's Origials (Cat)

I just found this beautiful handmade stuffed cat by someone named Mati at goodwill today. I tired to google him/her but to no avail. I did however find some other dolls of the same origin and lets just say, they do not run cheap! This cat has the original makers card attached but no contact info. I'm tring to figure out its history and what its worth. There is also an antique store price tag on it. $195.00. If anyone knows anyone who might be able to help me figure this mystery out please share my post with them.
