Gompers, an orange and white cat, rests inside a cat castle. His head is resting on the circular opening into the cozy inside section of the cat castle. You can see part of his orange body and white arm inside the dark cozyness of the castle, but the rest of him is curled up within and out view. The cat castle is a composite of two castles - a previous cardboard castle Gompers loved to death and a newer fabric castle that's almost the same size. It consists of a grey fabric square enclosure as the first floor base, and resting atop that are a scratchpad roof and a cardboard three-wall set piece of castle parapets and crenelations, plus a coat of arms (coat of paws?) illustration on the inside of the back wall. I'm not an expert on heraldric devices but I think on reads the coat of arms as: On a Field Rouge with a Bend Rouge*, a Cat Rampant Guardant Sable Crowned Or holding a Sceptre Or... but hopefully there's an SCA nerd out there that will bring some serious WELL ACTUALLY!!!! energy to the replies and correct me. *I know, I know, you're not supposed to do a metal bend on a color field and not layer color on color or metal on metal. I didn't design it, I'm just trying to describe it, don't shoot the herald.
