Got My Wool Felt, and Mom Scolded Me.
Share
There’s nothing quite like the excitement of receiving a package you’ve been waiting for. One cat owner finally unboxed a handmade wool felt portrait of their beloved feline—crafted so realistically that the green eyes seemed to glow with life.
The joy didn’t last long, though. The owner’s mother walked in, took one look at the portrait, and scolded:
“Why spend money on this? You already have a real cat at home!”
Embarrassed, the owner tried to explain: this wasn’t just decoration, but art. Each strand of wool had been shaped with patience and skill.
To them, the portrait wasn’t replacing the cat—it was a way of keeping a piece of their furry companion forever.
Meanwhile, the real cat sat calmly by the window, blinking with those same green eyes, as if secretly agreeing with Grandma: “She’s got a point, you know.”
Despite the teasing, the portrait found a permanent spot on the wall. Every time the owner looked at it, they felt proud and comforted. After all, what better way to celebrate a bond with a pet than through handmade art?
Takeaway: Sometimes art makes sense only to the heart.
