Pattern Description:

Hello! My name is Fillimon
I am a homeless, lonely cat. People say that I'm from a noble breed of hairless cats, but I did not know my family and, therefore, I am a bit sad.
You may think I'm not handsome, but inside I'm white and fluffy.
I am looking for a good and caring hostess who will gladly welcome me into her warm and cozy house, somewhere near the beach; or, maybe it will be a lovely house surrounded by a green garden ... Hopefully, I will not give you much trouble; and, I will certainly make friends with other people in your house and definitely with pets (if you have them).
One thing I know for sure, I'm lucky, and I will find my happiness in a "forever home!!!"

Sizing / Finished Measurements:

About 50 cm (20 inches) in length, including tail (sitting position is about 30 cm (12 inches)) if you use 1.3 mm hook.
