Christmas Cat Lamp

Every December a few more decorations come out of the loft with the tree. This one is a seated cat given the full festive treatment, built as a lamp so that the animal shape itself becomes the ornament and the light is simply what makes it work after dark. It suits the places seasonal decoration actually lives: a windowsill, a hall table, a mantel among the cards, a shelf in a room where the main lights are off and the tree is on. Out of season it is a cat, which is a shape that survives being left out all year. A multi-part model with a fair number of files, so it is a proper build rather than a single quick ornament. It will land well with anyone who prints Christmas decorations every year, and with the cat owners in their lives.
