The cats take over most things in this house! 

Same here  :)





Unfortunately they didn't think much of this little lad  :innocent: 



Ruby's tail all bushed out and she went creeping up to him on her tummy  :scared: so am afraid he had to be quickly rehomed to dog loving neighbour who as it so happens recently had her 81st birthday and has 2 little dawgies just like him; so that was handy wasn't it?  ;)

I was out today & drove passed a man in a lay-by who had loads of wooden cat & dog hand made plant holders for sale.

Did a U turn & went to see how much they were. £10! I couldnt resist!

Im sure he would sell a few on here.

Thing is ~ is it going to be a plant pot holder, or a holder for a cat???

That plant holder is fantastic!  Think it's already been taken over though.  :innocent:

Dogplant....Would it not be easier to only part construct for easy transport in your car then put them together when you get there....3 hrs earlier of course!  :innocent:

Just a thought!  ;)
i can take the head and tails off but wouldnt really give me the space i need for another 20-30 that i need to carry....

thanks tho...martin

Those planters are pretty neat, Martin! (and here's me thinking I was a dab hand at woodwork, but you knock me for six there...  ;) )

You said you were looking for colour ideas - good way to do that, silly as it sounds, is look at cat cuddly toys and other ornaments for inspurration. ;) Stylized is fine, as long as everyone "gets" it. An easy breed to do would be Siamese - just add larger ears, slightly more to the side of the head, dark brown face, ears, legs and tail, cream body and blue eyes. :)

If you really want to sell loads and reach a serious bunch of cat mad folks, why not look into having a stand at the Supreme Show - which is the cat version of Crufts.  ;) http://www.gccfcats.org/Supreme/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=5&Itemid=5
thanks very much for that raynard,,,,im going to give everything you said serious thought.....
the problem i have at the moment is im tring to make this project self sufficient....to do these big shows and big craft fairs im gonna need better transport than i already have,,,ie,van,,trailor,,,,,at the moment all i have is my boot and the back seat.....lol....im trying to stop dipping into my wifes bank account for my next shipment of wood....i have been making these animals for 3 months now and until recently it was a case of go to the layby,,,sell 10-12 then go shopping with the money,,,but im now running this as a business and the profits are showing a gradual increase and hopefully in the future i might have enough to buy that van...
as for the siamese,,my mother used to have 3 of them and i used to talk to one of them,,who was called benjy..i would ask him all sorts and he would reply with his meehows,,,it was great fun...

What a pity Jane... I went twice on Friday to see if Martin was there to get his details for you all.

Sat was a success as you now know.

Hope you can get there again this week.
