Still looking for a gift for that crazy cat lady on your list? How about Mom or Grandma or your dear old auntie? Check out my Etsy shop for an assortment art featuring of cats and cute critters. Many of them are very affordable small originals for $15 or less plus shipping. Some are matted and ready to frame. If the one you like isn’t, just ask. For my LJ friends, I’ll add a mat…
