I collect cat figurines.
I have hundreds. Everywhere that I went, I was always on the lookout for them. Ceramic, glass, fabric, wood, stone, crystal. Anything that caught my fancy.
Craft shows, vacations, garage sales, estate sales, trips to the mall, anywhere that possibly had any type of kitty nick-nacks.
My family and friends also joined in. I would always be happy with a kitty cat gift.
