Description

This item might be described as modern art in a cleverly cut, cat quest of a puzzle! Each cat (and one dachshund) is a different shape. They make up a round cluster of napping kittens. Large ‘frame' pieces make the puzzle into a square. There is a fold out image in the box to use as you work. It is also worth noting that the pieces fit next to each other, but they do not interlock like a traditional puzzle. This adds to the artsy look, but can be a tad challenging. The outer framing pieces do interlock to keep the cats contained. Finished puzzle measures 18"x 18", with 300 pieces. ~Sara
