Evelyn,
Did you by any chance do a Google search on cat musician figurines?
I found this site:
http://www.marco2.com/porfig.html
Scroll down and there are 2 cat musicians near the bottom of the page, one
playing a flute and one playing a violin.
hth,
Christine

Thanks, Christine - those look like what I saw in Brussels - and equally
expensive, alas! I'm looking for cheap reproductions, not the genuine
article (because that's all I can afford).

Thanks a million, Christine - those are EXACTLY what my manicurist had!
(Not quite so fancy as those I saw in Europe, but $22 is affordable,
close to $1200 for a set of four would not be.) I've already placed my
order. I'm sure glad I thought of rpca as a resource!

The figurine was numbered 99522 It was three
kittens playing around a big horn. I am sure it was inexpensive, but
cute.MLB
