Cat Wreath

For a family that loves cats, a portrait of one can already feel personal. Giving that affection a place on the wall is one small way of making a child’s room part of the life you share.

This cream cat wears a mustard cardigan with tiny brown buttons and a scalloped collar. Fine pale stitches cross the clothing, and small stars surround the face. The rough twigs make an uneven frame around the neat little outfit, as if this were a very ordinary way for a cat to be dressed.

Your child may come to share your love of cats, or find their own reason to like this one. There is space for both in a picture chosen with affection, cardigan and all.
