Fireside cat

I was given quite a few Christmas presents, and I am grateful for the thought, love and friendship they represent.  Without demeaning those other presents that I have recieved, here is a picture of a cast iron cat from my Mum.  It sits by the fire, and as well as being decorative, the hollow body neatly hides the matches and door handle for the stove.

    Distinctly natty! I always had the opener of the upright Godin on the chimney piece...where it inevitably became mixed up with other clutter...

    But heating is one more thing I don't have to think about.

    That's my kind of cat - useful, not alergic and doesn't poo in my garden - excellent.
