Catie the Cali Cat Kit, COE 96 Murrini Millefiori

For all the details on Catie, check out the Oct. 31, 2025 blog. Each kit will have 30 pre-cut Catie heads, two 2-inch body canes (unsnipped) and 30+ tails in 3 colors…black, chocolate and terra cotta. Cats will be packaged by size (very small to X large). The above photo shows a medium size cat head/body. The head sizes may vary slightly in each order, which means a few smalls may be in with the mediums and some mediums may be in with the larges, etc. Lisa and I did try to sort them carefully.

Thickness of heads will range between 2mm and 5mm. As mentioned above, most of the sides of the cat's head will be a matte finish from the saw. If there is a rough spot on the head, your grinder should smooth that area out nicely if needed. 

The hand-made tails are a fun variety and will be in different colors, shapes, and lengths. The tails will be too long for most of the kitties, but this way you can adjust the size by just pinching them shorter with your fingers, or using something like grozing pliers to pinch off the excess. Most of the tails are a curly shape, but some tails are long and wiggly or organic in shape just for a fun variety. Try placing the tail in all different directions for different looks and tucking under the kitty when possible to avoid it separating from the body in the fuse. If the tail doesn't lay flat, remember that in your fuse it will probably move just a smidge as it lays down and may move away from your body. 

I’m a fan of a tack fuse for Catie, but feel free to fully fuse her for a rounded look. 

See dime for size reference. They were photographed in the best lighting possible to show accurate colors (however all computer monitors render colors differently). I use only Oceanside fusible glass in my shop unless specified in the listing. COE 96.

Different sizes will be offered at checkout. Once received, the cane can be snipped as thick or thin as you’d like. You can get approximately 14-16 3mm pieces from each cane.

Murrini with an outer shape (leaf, heart, ripple petal, etc.,) will require a TACK FUSE to retain that shape during the fusing process.

Feel free to reach out to me anytime! I’m always happy to answer questions.
