If you’re looking for a cat lover’s gift, how about a lasting work of art that doubles as a functional kitchen utensil? This whimsical ceramic trivet looks great on the dining table or the wall.

Artist Laura Seeley provides the original hand painted design. The painting depicts a tired kitty, crashed out on the chimney top. From the look of him/her, it’s been a long day in the flue. It won’t put a damper on your room décor, though; this clever accent will liven up any area of our home. The brilliant colors are permanently fired into the ceramic, for lasting luster and beauty.

The 8” x 12” ceramic tile is backed with cork, to protect your table top or wall. Thanks to the heat resistance of ceramic, it will shield the dining table from those hot pans, too. Whether it’s used as a trivet or simply a decoration, this cat fancier’s ceramic masterpiece will warm the heart of anyone with feline friends.
