I would just like to point out that you cannot fake what people's reactions are:

Here are just a few letters written to Silver Burton - and Cat painters alike

Btw just because they don't have a website doesn't mean that they don't exist.

Just an example:

DYES TESTED ON CATS

We never paint our cats (three Siamese - Bella, Jasper & Stinkle) with anything but henna or other vegetable based dyes. Synthetic hair colors have been associated with cancers and very few have ever been tested for human toxicity. In fact they've probably been tested on cats in laboratories but of course we'll never get to see these results because they don't like to admit they test on animals.

CATS ARE FROM MARS

We had both our cats done by Eric Gonzalez of Urban Pets in Greenwich Village, New York in 1998. He did them in three matching shades of green for St Patrick's day and they were a real hit. We lost one of them, Snow, about a week later and it felt a bit weird putting up a notice asking if anyone had seen a green cat. Well it didn't take long to find him -- everybody had seen him. he'd been appropriated by some kids in the next apartment block who by the way had their five-year old sister convinced that it was a martian cat. And God was he fat when we got him back.
