Default Quest for Siamese Cat material

I was hoping that some of you detectives could help me find some Siamese
Cat material. A friend just got 2 Siamese kitten brothers, Fred &
Barney, and I'd love to make them a bed.

I want real looking cats, not stylized or cartoony. I haven't had much
luck, as lots of sites don't work with a webtv so I can't search them.
EBay doesn't work for me either.

Please don't go to lots of trouble, but if anyone knows of a specific
site please send it. I can always forward it to my friend's computer to
look at them if I need to.

I wonder if there's any Fred and Barney (The Flintsons) out there, maybe
I could make the bed double sided.

Thanks for the help

Denise

If it was me I'd do a more abstract version: find some shaded brown
and cream fabrics and make a fairly conventional block design with
triangular and rectangular bits coloured like Siamese ears and paws.

So, where'd you get graded browns resembling Siamese cat fur, you ask?
No idea.

There's a precious collection over at The Spider's Web Fabric & Quilt
Shop.com Now, thanks to you, I'm going to have "We are Siamese, if you
please" singing around in my head. Wasn't that from "Lady and the Tramp" ?

Yes, Lady and the Tramp......
We are Siamese if you don't please.
Now we're looking over our new domicile
If we like we stay for maybe quite a while

Well that just knocked 'It's a Small World After All' right off the
annoying, repetitive song track playing in my head.

Default Quest for Siamese, needing Pat's drummers

Where is Pat in Virginia when we need her? We are Siamese is simply not
complete without the drum paws for tah-ta-dum dum dum Polly

http://hotdiggitydog.com On the left, click on the word CAT then click
on Siamese. You will get fabric -- very $$$ fabric -- of just Siamese
kitty heads in blue )I think) or brown. I will check my stash. I
don't think I have anything that is just Siamese but I have a LOT of cat
fabrics. I'll let you know what I find tomorrow. CiaoMeow ^;;^

I thought it was Aristocats, but as I am going through a bout of CRS it
could have been from just about any film you care to name!

You are all quite correct - I was thinking of the Siamese cat during the
jazz scene in Aristocats when they sing "Everybody wants to be a cat"
