Awesome! Fun to get one! I got one with lights, and called 3 in the daylight last year, so much fun!

Problem with full mounts is, I've seen WAY more poorly done faces than I have seen good faces. Faces regularly look silly. Try to find a taxidermist with photos of their work so you can critique. Seems harsh, but it's HARD to get a cat face right!

That is my biggest fear. You are right, cats naturally look silly, then to have someone not get it quite right makes them look real bad. Too much money to take a chance for me I think.

 I have seen good taxidermists really screw up cats. I think there are really few that do cats really well.
