Thank you Mandy85, I'd love to commission you some kitties! :) When I open my shop I'm looking forward to making people dolls which are miniature replicas of their own cats.

UrocyonFox - Thank you very much, I'm not exactly sure yet when I will be ready to take commissions due to the house move but I'm hoping to open my Etsy shop by the end of July :)

Wystearya - Yes, they're cast in a soft foam over a wire armature, and can indeed be posed/their heads can turn too. Their bodies are covered in a thin nylon fabric which I believe gives a fine fur appearance similar to flocking. I'm working on a new cat at the moment, a white Turkish Angora, she may be my favourite so far! :)

I have a couple of questions!

Can the outfits be removed and changed?
Can extra outfits be ordered?  (Obviously at an added cost.)

Thanks!

Thank you everyone for all of the lovely compliments! I am so touched :)

 Wystearya, all of the costumes I've made so far aren't designed to be removed, but it is possible and I have thought of it. Because the armatures of the cats are just wire, the joints could eventually snap if they're under strain to much, and to put on say a jacket involves bending the arms right back, which I wouldn't recommend doing a lot. However if I made a dress say that buttoned all the way down at the back, that could be put on from the front without having to strain back the arms too much. Removable garments are more work as well because they need to be lined. Hope that answers your question :)

Thank you guys <3

 kCherry, I'm moving house in (fingers crossed) a month, but I don't feel like I can launch my business until I'm settled into my new home. Over the next month I'm going to be setting up my website, sorting out my packaging etc so I'm ready to open my shop soon after I've moved. So I'd predict late July/early August I will start taking commissions. If you're interested in finding out more about the cats in general though then do feel free to drop me a message :)
