Care instructions

Stick-incense use: place a stick of incense in the hole behind the cat's head and rest the cat on its dish; always burn on a heatproof surface and never leave burning incense unattended.

Wipe clean and keep dry — light soot is normal and wipes off. Decorative incense accessory: not for food use; not microwave or dishwasher safe.

Because every step is done by hand, each cat's face and markings vary slightly — part of its charm.
