October 27th, select Harmony Kingdom dealers hosted FelineFest, the 2006 Harmony Kingdom Fall event. Peter Calvesbert carved an exclusive event box figurine for the occasion, featuring a black cat sat atop an octet of jack-o’-lanterns. His signature mouse is tucked amidst the pumpkins, along with a few winged creatures of the night. A message from Peter. "I'm afraid it has been a sad time here as we have had to say goodbye to one of our cats -"Puss". Old age and poor health had taken its toll. Andrea got Puss from a cat rescue centre in 1992. The centre had named her Ratty because of her matted fur when she arrived. Andrea changed her name to Rosie, but then over the years she just became Puss. She is now buried by her favourite sunny spot in the garden. The lid of “FelineFest” has her names Ratty, Rosie and Puss inscribed on it, as well as the date 3/7/6. The interior shows four ghosts practicing their haunting techniques and the word Italy. At the time of carving, Italy was due to meet France in the final of the World cup and I was hoping Italy would win. It's bad enough that once again England’s showing was so dismal, but if France were to win!!!!!! On the base is a claw with the letters L.D. next to it. The claw is to remind me of the Peregrine I had been observing and L.D. stands for the "Longest Day", the day the young Peregrine left the nest.The mould variation of 200 pieces were carved after the "big" game, so next to the word Italy is the scoreline 1-1 and the result of the penalty shootout 5-3. The pumpkin with the Dracula fangs has had them replaced with a nice set of dentures and four of the pumpkins now have long tongues sticking out of their mouths. There is also a "baby" pumpkin added to the base. RF4 written under a pumpkin stands for Roger Federer winning Wimbledon for the fourth time."Free USPS Ground Advantage insured shipping in the US. The piece is "mint in box" and signed by the artist Peter Calvesbert. Thanks for looking!
