                                        The Library Cat Sculpture 

Yesterday on second floor of the Palmerston City Library,we found a sculpture of a cat.It is one out of two of the library cats.  But this one is more realistic and 3 dimensional.  One of the artist's many techniques is shading.  Also it has holes in its eyes and a creamy, puffy neck.  If you didn't know (of course you know,) the cat is a sculpture.

If you were wondering, this cat was sitting on a little wooden table next to a lady's office.  This sculpture felt hard and soft at the same time.  Its spine and bottom is shaded darker than the rest of the body.  The lightest part is his neck and two front paws.  Its tail is curled up to its body and its ears are spiked up.  This nose is perfect as perfect can be.  The mouth is exquisite and in the perfect place - last, but not least, the correct number and in the correct place, the whiskers.
