Quirky
and playful black cat double broach
I love this item from What a Novel Idea Etsy shop! This quirky but stylish double broach is a great gift idea for a cat lover! Who says you can’t take your cat with you everywhere? About this item: “They each measure about 2" long and 1 1/2" tall and are connected by a red and gold rosary bead chain measuring about 4". You can wear these pretty cats on your collar or wear them as a double pin on your top or sweater as seen in the pictures above. Each little feline has been covered with a protective gloss sealer but it's best that you keep them from getting wet.” SHOP THIS ITEM!
