Description

Madame Plume had ruled the apartment on the Rue Cler for eleven years. She slept on the warm side of the radiator, ignored visitors with magnificent disdain, and allowed only her owner to brush the long silky coat that spilled around her like a cloud. On Sundays she wore a ribbon at her neck, and she seemed to know exactly how fine she looked in it. Guests learned quickly that the best armchair was hers, and that no amount of coaxing would change her mind about it.

This long-haired cat has the same air of quiet self-satisfaction. Her fur is painted with real finesse, capturing the soft volume of a fluffy coat, and a dainty bow sets off her portrait. She is a perfect companion for a cat lover’s bookshelf, a gentle gift of remembrance for someone missing a beloved pet, or a charming way to welcome a new kitten home. Unlike the real thing, she will never knock your earrings off the dresser.
