It turned out funny but was happy doing the craft . More more sculpting continued and my family convinced me to sell it .

My sweet cat

 I've always loved cats, my whole family did but my mom was a bit scared of it so we never thought about owning a cat . On October 2024 we bought a cat . She was 40 days old at the time . She is such a sweet cat , i never felt like it was too hard to have a pet . She made it so  easy for me . We named her yume which means dream . She gets a bit hyper at times usually when it’s midnight . She likes attention and food . Whenever we eat dinner she needs our food but since cats can’t eat spices and some vegetables we usually don't give him . She likes to open her mouth whenever we try to take pictures and it’s so adorable to see . Her favourite food is minced chicken lover and chicken broth.she gobbles it up in minutes
