Cat # 25 (illustrated by Max Rugers)

Sorry for disappearing for the week. It's been a crazy busy week and I kept trying to find the time to post new characters and failed. I'm feeling a little more caught up and so I'll be more consistent....

In Dream Of A Thousand Cats, a wise storyteller cat recalls her encounter with Dream and the tale he imparted to her.

He told her that once cats ruled the world and humans were subservient to them. One day a Golden Haired Man told his fellow humans that if they dreamed of an existence where humans were no longer hunted and killed by cats it would be so because “Dreams shape the world.”

In time enough humans had this dream and the next day the world changed and cats were no longer dominant.

This cat is one of the cats in the Storyteller cat’s tale. He appears in Sandman # 18, on page 18, in panel 3.

Max modeled this cat after his brother’s cat, named Toby. This is a fantastic portrait. I love the colors and the realistic nature of the cat’s fur. I really like this portrait!!!
