Kitty Cat Trio

Make This Darling Trio of Kitty Cats!

You might remember our black cat set we made from 2×4’s for Halloween. These are some other color kitty cats that you can display year round! A Siamese, a Tabby and Calico, though you can of course paint any breeds you wish.  This is another craft designed by our very creative daughter Jennifer.

Itjenny.creation was an appropriate craft for her to help with as she’s been a cat lover since she was very young. She and her husband and son, all animal lovers, currently have four cats and two dogs. She works at a pet rescue.

I made this set from 1x4s but 2x4s work great too! You can make them pretty much any height you wish but I’ve included a pdf pattern you can download for the sizes shown.

And a special thank you to my 83 year old dad who cuts all my wood patterns for me!
