Best Ever Very Old Black Cat Doorstop leaf I'd use it for servingOh, this cat.. if this one doesn't grab your heart, I don't know what to say! I would think it has 100 years on it at least and has surely stopped a lot of doors, yielding a to my eye an ideal surface scraped, dinged, and chipped, but still holding on to much of its original paint, most importantly that of the wonderfully expressive eyes and whiskers. I think it all adds up to a pretty perfect embodiment of black cat persona! 8 1 2" tall x 5 3 5"
