If you ask Gracie Cat by Hazel Village what her favourite activity is, she will tell you: fishing. She has loved it ever since she was a kitten. She says on a good afternoon, she can catch a dozen minnows. When she has enough she takes her fish to Owen Fox’s house, and the animals have a fish fry. Although some of them eat only salad. Gracie says that is fine; more fish for her.

Gracie is about 35.5cm tall. She is made of organic cotton fleece, mostly grey but with natural-coloured details on her face and tummy. Her ears are lined with cotton plaid. Her face is hand-stitched with cotton embroidery thread. She is stuffed with polyfill. If she gets dirty she can be hand washed in cool water and air dried. She wants to remind you she sticks her feet in the pond all the time - you shouldn’t believe what you hear about cats hating water.

Gracie's dress is made from a soft blush linen with a velcro closure in the back.

Gracie will travel to you swaddled in a collectable bandanna, perfumed with a lavender sachet. She says she would prefer a tarragon and dill sachet so she can use it for a fish fry, but we don’t have that available and she admits that this one smells nice.
