Dreaming of Murder & Mischief - Vintage Ceramic Sleeping Cat
£20.00
Some cats dream of chasing butterflies.
Others are plotting world domination.
This sleepy vintage ceramic cat looks perfectly innocent, curled up amongst delicate pink roses, peacefully snoozing without a care in the world. But every cat owner knows better. Behind those closed eyes is a tiny furry menace, quietly dreaming of murder, mischief and knocking your favourite mug off the side at three o'clock in the morning.
Lovingly hand-altered by Swears of Joy, this one-of-a-kind vintage ceramic cat dish is a playful nod to every mischievous feline we've ever shared our homes with. A beautiful decorative piece for cat lovers who know that the sweetest-looking cats are usually the biggest troublemakers.
Like every piece from the Statement Sideboard, this began life as a beautiful vintage treasure before being given an entirely new story.
The object came first. The phrase finished the story.
