A colorful quilted square with an appliquéd orange cat

Written on back of the square: Hello, I am Mr Cornflake. Take me home, I am a gift for you. Scan the QR code to read my story. Every cat has a story. A gift from the CatJoyProject. For this cat’s story DM me at http://tinyurl.com/sweet-slinky #TheCatJoyProject

a dilute orange tabby cat standing on the stairs of a house. He blends in with the stairs that are almost the same color as him. In the corner behind him is a small decorative snowman holding a sign that says, Welcome.

Time to start thinking about November's Cat Square. It will commemorate Mr. Cornflake. He lived in the Rustic Canyon neighborhood of L.A. He was a great cat. #TheCatJoyProject
