Sitting Kitty: Cat Sculpture

This kitty was commissioned for Mother's Day by a daughter. The kitty's name is Bonkers and she had a habit of sitting in a most "unladylike" position. 

Buddha-esque or Yoda, maybe?
Here's Ms. Bonkers herself. A big girl with beautiful gold/green eyes.

Getting those full jowls and the double chin were essential to capturing her character.

    I was thinking of our chat about felting cats... Who said she is not familiar with cats? ;)
    I think this is just perfect! :)
    I still think this is lovely little cat. And not to mention, the position is difficult to make. I never could succeed in this!

    Kirsi, For this cat I consulted drawings of cat skeletons and muscles so that I had a better understanding of what is under all that fur. It really helped!

    Thanks!
