“i want to be a cat...”

 

Description from foxhill designs vt: for Halloween.
Over the years, I dressed up as a cat several times. When I was small, my mom made me a cat costume. It was a one piece suit with a bonnet-like hat with ears. She didn't have any black fabric to use, so it was navy and dark green. I loved it. Once when I was a teenager, I was a black cat. Put some ears on a headband, pin on a tail, draw some whiskers with an eyeliner pencil and voila! A black cat. Now, the tradition is that I wear a fuzzy leopard print headband with ears to take the boys trick-or-treating. :)

    I agree! Cats have the life of Riley! They are amazing, annoying, loving and ignoring you all in the few minutes of their day that they give you! However, I would wear your necklace in a NY min. to show the world that I love cats! Love the pic!

    Love the costume story and the pick, I have one of them despite that I am allergic to them, I just had to give her a home, she was badly mistreated by her previous owner :D

    Reminds me of the song in the Aristocats,
    “Everybody wants to be a cat,
    because a cat’s the only cat
    who knows where it’s at!”

    Love them kitties!

    I always felt like a cat, I can sleep like one. Cats have the life 3 hots and a cot(where ever they want to sleep).
