Why? Don’t know. Don’t even know what it is but I do know humans stare at anything with a screen for HOURS on end. Soooo anything with a screen must be VERY, VERY powerful.

That’s right…you know where I’m going with this. WORLD DOMINATION Community Building.

So, I recruited the CEO to help carry it into our headquarters.

My new cat enjoyed the ride up top.

But we kinda got annoyed when he kept screaming

“I’m King of the World! Celine, where are you when I need you?”

Cute Cat Doll actd out famous scene from the movie The Titanic.

Whew! Victory!

Cat Dolls collapsed in fatique

My cat kept saying…

            "Do it again. Do it again! Again! Again!"

We sat and stared at it for hours…waiting for it to do something.

In all her infinite wisdom she remarked:

“Hmmm. What are you gonna do with it?”

Haven’t a clue. The on button won’t even work. I shared with her my deepest feelings about being brave in my quest for World Domination. How I needed to remain vulnerable in my courage so that people could relate to how willing I am to be cracked open with vulnerability and I would be willing to lean into my courage if I just knew what I was supposed to lean into.

She said:

“What the heck are you talking about?”

I don’t know…I read it somewhere on the internet.

“Uh-huh. Well. Use the Force, Luke. You’ll figure out what to do with it.”

I hate when she says that! Like I’ll be able to figure -----OH WAIT! OH GLORIOUS DAY…. I gotta go. I gotta get to work! I am gonna RULE!!! Whimsical cat dolls (keyword alert) are gonna rule!

The inspiration behind Catberry Tails. Opie the cat with soulful green eyes.For A Most Spectacular Cat - Mr. Catberry Tails

For Opie the most loving soul. You and me, kid. Together forever. Some years back you inspired the creation of Catberry Tails for Robert Kaufman Fabrics. Shortly thereafter, we worked with OESD (Oklahoma Embroidery Supply and Design. When I pulled you out of the street on Christmas night all those years ago who knew you would inspire so many textiles, cartoons, dolls and more? Without you I would have never traveled this path, nor rescued so many other cats. I am honored to be your crazy cat lady. So here we are today, beginning a new phase!

And in memory of Muff, Bo, Rambo, Chloe, Miss Hiss, Leo, Bingo, Bonkers, Ben, Doc, Casey, The Muffinator, Simon, Pete, Snickers, Bones, Mao, Wee...sweet souls who've passed through our lives in need of a good home.

And for the next generation of Catberry Tails: Rudy, Walle and Melvin and all the Real Stuffed Cats.

For artists with cats, cat people and all you souls who could use a good chuckle. I'm glad you're here.
