Master puppet designer — and cat lover – Stacey Gordon has some adorable feline-related creations for all you puppet collectors out there. These little guys are from her collection of handmade cat finger puppets, each with their own special name and personality.
Colorful felt and tiny little details make these puppets awesome gifts and collector’s items. Each one comes in its own little plastic display box. Available from Stacey’s Etsy shop for $12.
Finger puppets are great for kids (these are for ages 3 and up, because of the small parts). Here’s what Stacey says about puppets and kids:
“Puppets help kids build language and social skills in an imaginative, fun way. They facilitate healthy communication for all age groups, giving kids and adults an emotionally safe way to express themselves. They enhance story time, classroom learning, and are overall just plain fun.”

These little kitties are wonderful! She’s making some non-cat items that are hysterically funny and charming, too.

These really speak to my inner kid. I used to make lots of things with felt when I was growing up, and of course I had a vivid fantasy life. Wow! I would think kids, and people who love kids, would really love these. (I do, too.)
