    That tall black cat - is it spoken for? Not for me, but my neighbor. She has a black cat and loves all things like that. Put my name on it, if still available.

    Is this stuff that you got from the Antique Shop? Maybe you could donate it back to them, or sell by consignment?

    I couldn't deal with all that - too much dusting to keep up with. And don't the cats knock them off the shelves? Mine sure would

    First collection, second shelf, spotted kitty in the middle and grey cat, same shelf, all the way on the right. Glass shelf collection, right side, kitty with dark brown face/legs and striped body. Second to last picture, the picture above the tall kitties, top shelf, blue or purple kitty, second shelf, the grey kitty with the pink ears and the brown one next to it.

    I'll get back to you on these guys later.. maybe not till tomorrow or later (but you're next in line!) .. I just got in tonight and still have to have dinner, and then tomorrow early morning and late afternoon I have my last two visits in Saline with Crystal, and in between those going to Dearborn (in the opposite direction) for my brother's father-in-law's memorial service..

    Anyone want any closer shots of any? (Taking photos, resizing and color-correcting them, then uploading them takes me some time too, but I'll do my best.)

    I love them all, but they need to go on out into the world of more cat-love.

    How this all came about:

    For a long time I had just a few, occasionally acquired. Then, not long after I'd moved to Ann Arbor (2002), I went to an estate sale, saw a cat figurine I rather liked, kept it in mind and kept looking. Then I found another, decided to get both, and was about to go back to get the first one when someone else walked up with it to the cashier to buy it!

    After that I started snapping them up the minute I saw one that even slightly appealed to me.. And T-shirts and pictures and what have you.. And then finally they started to take over the apartment..

    Plus I have my OWN cats that have their own ways of taking up space, with all THEIR paraphernalia..

    If I keep on like this I'll need to get a bigger place! Which I can't afford to do.. So..

    And I have other things like T-shirts and plates and cups and refrigerator magnets too, many of which could go to new homes too because I have way more than I can ever use..

    More later on those...

    No, Helene, of COURSE I'm not selling the Bear! I just left him on the shelf so you can see how he's watching over everything!

    And yes on the others. More later..

    Rather than try to explain which ones I was interested in I decided to just circle them on these pics....
    If I have circled a kitty that someone else has spoken for, just ignore.....LOL
    I'm really interested in the taller kitties.
    Just let me know $$ to purchase plus shipping....thanks!

    Hi Diane, I was just looking more closely at the ones you circled, and I see that you also have two of the "family members" circled .. attachment #4, top right hand side. So I guess you and Donna (moosmom) should decide whether either of you would like the whole "family".. the smaller cat in front of the two striped ones has slight stripes and the same color scheme (he's their "kitten"!).

    Thanks,
    Pat

    Hi everyone, I am going along organizing the requests in the order they came and checking out the availabilities and getting the packaging together and all ready to send. I sent out Helene's (lvpets2002) yesterday and am now getting Maggie's (Pinot's Mom) together. I'm trying to check everything to make sure I've got the right ones and to let people know as I go along and if items are no longer available.

    Thanks, and I apologize for the time it's taking.. I've never done this before (e.g., eBay or such).

    Hi Pat,
    I'd be happy to take the entire family but since I had so many other kitties circled I don't want to be piggy and take everything....
    So if Moosmom wants the family that's fine with me. Whatever works best...and thanks!
