I always cringe when I see a post titled "Got my cat back from the Taxi..." because about 7 times out of 10 it looks like crap. For some reason cats are really hard to get done up properly. The usual deer and fish taxidermist butchers them up and inexperienced guys that have never seen but the one cat they killed just don't know any better.

YOUR cat looks great! That's a very well composed mount and the work on the cat is first rate. Congrats!

Big +1. Your "cringe" comment reminded me of a former member that had his cat full-body mounted.

The Taxidermist shared with me that this was the largest Wild Cat he had ever seen or mounted being 41-1/2" in length, and feels it may very well be a Tennessee State record due to it's size Proportion. He said that he had in the past mounted well over 200 cats from all over the United states, but this one was the biggest that he had ever seen or mounted. He had to order Two-forms to mount him on due to his size. He also commented on his eye color as he said most that he had mounted in the past were more brown in color and these eyes were custom ordered from England as they are of much higher quality than those offered in the United states and they seem to follow you across the room. The Mount adjusts up or down by taking down Two 1/2" Nuts located under the base, and there is Two 3/8" steel rods inside the Mold to stiffen the Pose. He will reside in our living room on a custom built corner shelf

LOL... maybe that's why he stole the ambulance, there was a "wild cat" about to rip him to shreds. That would explain everything! smile
