This page is a showcase for Henry's talent
This page was created to give Henry a place to showcase his work and to help other cat owners appreciate their kitty companion's creative talents.
Henry, the feline fiber artist, is a wonderful black and white tuxedo cat. Henry is the first feline artist to have his work displayed in the Bangor Maine Public Library.
Henry's talent as a fiber artist was discovered when his frustration with traditional scratching posts led his human to purchase rug remnant pieces from Marden's, and nail them to the wall. It did not take him long to discover that not only did he now have a great place to sharpen his claws, but it proved to be a wonderful outlet for his artistic abilities!
When a new piece of rug is attached to the wall, Henry takes time to look it over to see how he can best use it to express his ideas and feelings. Then he begins his work, pulling a loop out here and a thread out there, until the piece is finished. Most of Henry's fiber art wall hangings take months to complete.
Henry has his own MySpace page where he can connect with other cats and humans that serve them.
And Henry has his own internet store with products that display his image at
Cafe Press

A picture is worth a thousand words!
A blog all about this
I like this blog because the writer is doing her best to open people's minds to the --for the most part -- unrecognized creative abilities of cats
Some art stuff on Amazon you might like
Books that will come in handy!
Are you a fellow artist?
Are cats expressing their creativity when they scratch the carpet or furniture?
Yes
