I have some rather attractive china cat sculptures that I bought for myself, but a few years ago a co-worker bought me this for my birthday:
I found it charming, but didn't think it was anything in particular.
Some time later, I saw an article in Your Cat magazine about Winstanley cats, and they looked bit like my little fellah. Then I forgot all about it till recently they ran another article. I decided to photograph my kittie and send the pictures to the Winstanley cat makers, including this one of his base:
And lo! he is a Winstanley cat!
They don't sell for huge sums of money, but enough for me to realise that my co-worker must have thought fondly of me.
For anyone interested in having a look at their products, here's the web address: http://www.winstanleycats.uk.com/
