Very cute photo Larry. The long shadow makes me feel like the day is over and it is time to wind down and relax a little. At first I thought this wasn`t even a closeup (I always look at the photo first and than read the text) #-o ...How big is the ornament?

You must keep this cat away from the mouse! :D

Doug,i would say the chair is about the length of my hand so about 5 inches tall? The cat itself is about 2 inch across.
Niklas we do have a furry toy mouse and it is quite a bit bigger than the cat!

My wife would love one of these. We have a small black and white version in a basket and she just loves it :D :wink: BTW, its the lighting and shadow that makes this work so well. Brilliant IMO.

All the best Larry, just love the shadows.

Worry about the image that comes out of the box, rather than the box itself.
