Wanted: One Giant Cat

Sarah:

Does anyone know where we can get a nice giant cat toy that we can modify into a mascot? Preferably cheap, and preferably not Hello Kitty.

Event: Catmasutra

Sarah:

Some of you may know Paul Koh, the artist who did the designs for some of our old t-shirts. He’s back with a new exhibit of lovely cat paintings. Have a look!

Cats of the World II @ Arts House

Ivan:

CWS was invited to the Arts House today to be part of the Cats of the World II exhibition. We were there to sell some of our merchandises and share word about TNRM. Prior to entering the Arts House, the CWS comm were greeted by a sterilised kitty mascot at the front entrance of the Arts House. Salina our comm’s Honourary Secretary gave the kitty some food. Back to the exhibition, there were numerous photos of local cats too - especially those from the East Coast Park. Li Tin, Salina and Kailing did an awesome job at the sales booth, we sold quite a number of our merchandise. The exhibition continues till 31st May and the details are here.

Visiting the warehouse

Kailing:

Everything was wrapped in plastic to keep it dust free.
