Vicki Thomas Funny Bone Originals ‘The Festive Cat’
This tall, stripey character seems to have taken the Christmas dress code quite seriously. Bold red-and-white bands spiral around his slender body, edged with gold detailing, while green eyes, a pink nose and an impressive set of whiskers complete his rather self-satisfied expression.
£14
Vicki Thomas Funny Bone Originals ‘The Black and Ginger Cat’
With his tiger stripes and ‘feed-me’ expression, this little cat looks considerably less fierce than his coat suggests. Warm orange and black markings frame a generous white tummy, with amber eyes, a peachy nose and long wire whiskers giving him a wonderfully expressive face.
£14
Vicki Thomas Funny Bone Originals ‘The Black and White Cat’
With his smart black coat, generous white tummy, and slightly worried expression, this tall black-and-white cat looks as though dinner might be running late. Amber eyes, a peachy nose and an impressive set of wire whiskers give him plenty of character, all balanced on a pair of oversized white paws.
£16
Vicki Thomas Funny Bone Originals ‘The Fat Cat’
A wonderfully rotund white cat designed by Vicki Thomas for Enesco as part of the Funny Bone Originals range. Based on Thomas’s original gourd-art characters, the figure has the collection’s wonderfully wonky folk-art look, with a huge rounded body, tiny feet, sleepy expression and a textured tail curled around the back.
£18
Cuddling Ceramic Meerkats
One keeping watch while the other leans in for a cuddle, these two seem to have worked out a rather nice arrangement. Their glossy, mottled brown finish is softened by creamy tummies and faces, with dark little paws and long tails curling around their feet.
£11
Vintage Ceramic Tiger
This vintage ceramic tiger prowls along with chunky paws, a curling tail, and a little flash of cream-coloured fangs. His glossy brown glaze is decorated with black stripes, with warm honey tones showing through around his face and feet.
