Week 265 - Leopard Pompom Key Ring

Hello humans and lovely kitties.  Did you enjoy Christmas? 

I got a pot of cat grass and cat nip toys as Christmas presents. Hope everybody are having a great time whether you're working or not.





This week, my human friend M made a fluffy pompom key ring.

Leopard Pompom Key Ring

According to M, this pompom key ring is easy to make.  About 18 cm diameter fake fur, ribbon, key ring, stuffing, thread, needle and small pliers are all you need.

Actually, M made a pompom key ring before.  Please see Week 194 for how to make.

Whose fur ball is this?

Week 264 - Last Minute Gift for Cats

Hi human and adorable kitties.  How's your Caturday going?  Christmas is nest weekend and people seem to be stressed to prepare it.  We, cats only know Christmas is the time when a large tree comes inside with decoration.  Unfortunately, my human friend M doesn't have a proper Christmas tree this year.  She donated a small tree for Cat Protection when we moved in a new house.

However, she prepare to Christmas making a gift for me.

Last Minute Gift for Cats

This is a super easy project.  You don't need to sew.

All you need is cotton fabric scrap(13 x 15cm), ribbon or thread, stuffing, jingle bells(optional), and dried catnip. 

To make these, just wrap catnip and stuffing with fabric, and tie with ribbon or thread.




As these are Christmas presents for me, I couldn't check them as usual.

Is Santa Claws coming town?

Week 263 - Meowy Christmas Tree

Hello humans and elegant kitties.  Unusual hot days continue here in Christchurch.  People say it's too hot, but for cats it is very comfortable.  It's already December.  It's summer!

My human friend M started a Christmas theme project.  Let's have a look.

She made cat colour felt balls and assembled them to hanging tree.

A felt ball is about 3 cm diameter.

Week 262 - Crazy Cat Lady's Shoulder Bag

Hello humans and irresistible kitties.  How's your weekend?  It has already summer here in Christchurch, NZ.  It is 31 degree.  For me it is comfortable, but for humans it is a little bit warmer.

This week, my human friend M made a lovely bag for herself.

Craze Cat Lady's Shoulder Bag

She made a shoulder bag with cotton drill and fake leather. 

The liner is padded quilt.  M made a inner pocket for convenience.

The tag is one of those she made a few weeks ago.

I'm checking.

Do you admit 'Crazy Cat Lady'?

Week 261 - Cat Face Resin Brooch

Hi humans and hard working kitties.  How are you all?  I don't feel so good as my hairball annoys me.  I munched cat grass, of course.  It helps me a little.  Don't worry, I am okay.  I must admit I am getting older.

This week, my human friend M made a cute brooch.

Cat Face Resin Brooch

She used UV resin.  As brown and amber resins are transparent, she put white resin first and after it was harden, she applied brown and amber to make tabby pattern. 

Then put green cats eye cabochons for eyes and daisy connectors for cheek. 

Again she poured translucent resin to cover the surface.

Brooch pin is attached.

Is this to be checked?

No, it isn't eatable.

Week 260 - Decorative Cat Tags

Hello people and glamour kitties.  How are you?  I mourned for the NZ first cat Paddles who was killed on road last Tuesday.  He was still young and the hope for NZ kitty society.  R.I.P. Paddles.

This week, my human friend M made some cat tags to decorate her original craft work.

Week 259 - Bow Collar and Hair Tie

Hi people and sweet kitties.  It's already November.  I am a bit annoyed of Guy Fawkes Day coming.  I like a quiet and cozy place to sleep.  Don't disturb me with noisy fireworks when I am sleeping.  This is an every cat's wish.  I insist animals should get a right to live peacefully.

This week, my human friend M made me a gorgeous collar.

Week 257 - Amber Cats Bracelet

Hello humans and well groomed kitties.  How are you today?  Sorry for an absent of last week.  My human friend M went to a weekend trip and left me behind.  A little bit quiet but I enjoyed my own time. 

M went to Waiau and Kaikoura.  She said she did kayaking at Kaikoura.

This week, M made a cute bracelet.  Let's have a look.

Amber Cats Bracelet

M made normal and cat shaped rings with UV resin.  She has the silicone mould only one each, so she used them three times to make six rings.

Once the rings harden by the sunshine, she assembled them to be a bracelet.

I looked from the right.

Week 256 - Tiger Wall Hanging

Hello humans and adorable kitties. 

It's already October.  Unfortunately this weekend is raining here in Christchurch. 

Good news is my human friend M bought a new chair for me.  It is cute pink velvet chair.  M insists that the chair is for herself, but the reality is whatever luxurious is mine.


This week, M made a gorgeous tiger wall hanging by needle felting.

Week 255 - Decoupage Cat Brooches

Hi humans and beautiful kitties, how are you?  It is the last day of September.  The day light saving time has already started and adjusted to my stomach clock at last.  My human friend M is still busy to sort out lots of things after shifting place.  I don't mind anything if I can get food, water, clean litter and cozy place to sleep.

This week, M made cute brooches.

Decoupage Cat Brooches

She cut out fabric slightly larger than plain brooch. 

Using Deco Podge(decoupage glue), she glued fabric and brooch.  Once it dried, she coated the surface again with Deco Podge.  It is easy to make.  No need to sew.

I am checking.

Week 253 - Painted Mini Bowl

Hello humans and attractive kitties, how are you?  My human friend M and I have moved our place and was very busy this week.  It is still messy in the new place, and I hope M tidies up soon.

While M was unpacking her stuff, I enjoyed watching flowers through the window.

This week, M painted a mini bowl with porcelain markers.

As M didn't have much time for the project, she chose easier option.

She drew eight cat faces and made two of them are different. One is sleeping, the other is smiling.

I am checking.

It's empty.
