Meow, Meow?

As noted, cats aren't really my thing, but the response to the silly cat robot has been weirdly positive. So much so that I had to make another for someone else. Here's the two choices I came up with:

Day 308 - The Beginning of the End?

In my illustrious career, I had yet to make a cat bot. It's no secret that I'm no cat lover. BUT . . . this really nice repeat customer asked me to make a kitten look-alike for her friend's daughter.



So I made the cat with a spool thread, playing on the cat/yarn love affair.  I figured the spool was kind of cream colored like Meadow (the afore-mentioned cat), so I added dark ears, nose, feet, and tail.  I even tried to color the eyes a blue color on top of the screws and, of course, I gave her a few little whiskers.



I'm not sure how I feel about this new development.  Mostly, I feel like a traitor.  Cats!
