Inspiration

During Christmas season 2002, my mother n'law sat frantically knitting a gift for an expectant mother during our 'movie hour.' Under low light, naturally, our beloved pussycat, Bacchus absconded with her ball of yarn. Rescuing the yarn from certain peril, I realized the wonderful feline gesture was similar to that of calligraphic lines. I went straight to my sketch pad and began feverishly illustrating the numerous gestures that cats exhibit.

During that time, we we're owned by three (3) cats with 3 distinctive personalities; I insisted that each be represented within this first series of line work. Throughout time, each cat exemplifies various traits, therefore, each cat is appended with various nicknames. Hence, the season and a famous story influenced the seven subsequent names. See if you can guess this familiar meter:

Pouncer,
Bouncer,
Chaser, and
Lay;
Beggeth,
Purreth, and
Runneth Away!

Since the series inception, our small litter has seen bittersweet growth and loss and continue to remain inspired by their primal and comical ways of enjoying life.

Please stay tuned to the additional products we will be revealing in the near future. You won't want to miss them!

Warmest Regards-
Lisa & the Pussycats
