Joden Girl
Baubles, Bling and Precious Things
Two months ago, life at the Martin house changed. And it will never be the same againโฆ but in the best way! Our oldest son, Zack (who lives in an apartment on his own) adopted a kitten. This very tiny orange-striped darling had been abandoned with two of his siblings. At just 4 weeks old and weighing a mere 0.8 pounds, he wasnโt able to maintain his body heat, feed himself or even use a litter box.
The first night was a bit rockyโฆ but after some sage advice from an old friend and a speedy visit to the vet, we had a tentative plan to keep our little fella healthy and happy. Kitty visits were filled with heating pads, syringes for feeding and lots of cuddling. There was no denying it, Waylon had stolen our hearts.
You can imagine my delight upon discovering this small brooch.
Measuring a scant 7/8 of an inch, this 18-karat yellow gold cat pin is too cute. From the curl in his tail to the arch in his back, this brooch is full of fun! Bright shades of enamel bring this kitty to lifeโฆ bold green stripes, a black nose, and a bright red mouth add character and personality.
The back of the brooch features two hallmarks, one reads โ18Kโ and the other reads โItalyโ. Itโs impossible to resist this charming cat. Heโs priced at just $400. I promise you, he wonโt last long.
As far as we were concernedโฆ if one kitten is good, then surely two is better. And so, two weeks ago, Zack was lucky enough to adopt one of Waylonโs litter mates.
Meet my grand-kittensโฆ Willie and Waylon. If youโd like to adopt our enameled cat brooch, give us a call or stop by the store.
โYou can go to a museum and look, or come to us and touch.โ
