I get it. I wonder where I could find a small version of that tall slender cat? I've seen 7 inch ones for sale, but that's way too big for this radio.

Gnomes like clowns scare me, rather meet a biker back by the dumpster out in back for a chain fight than deal with a clown or gnome. Get a ceramic cat! Paul

A small white cat , because then it will look like a Zenith Stratosphere.

I wonder if people just bought those Strat Cats or they came with Strats as a gift.

I have real cats, no figurines. But then I got no Zs with shelves.

My cats are lucky, if I ever get a Strat, they will have to take turns doing Z duty, sitting on the shelf each for 3 hrs a day.

My cats are tuxedos, not white. And certainly not as slender. I feed them well.
