 I have entered this same cat in a challenge a while ago so I don’t expect anyone to recognise it. It is attached to our shed door and is about 15yrs old now. The more weathered it gets the more I like it. The rust and peeling paint adds so much more appeal and beauty to me and that is why I feel it meets this challenge perfectly. That being said, it will probably not appeal that much to others and will suffer in the score I’m sure. Not important as the last time I entered this cat (almost exactly 2 years ago for the Sentinel challenge) it only scored 4.6 but got some great comments and some bling from posthumous so to me it was a success. This probably won’t receive the same response though. It is interesting to see how much it has weathered in the last couple of years. Perhaps I might find a challenge to fit it into in a couple of years from now.
