| We have two Schleich-sized plastic cats, marked in English with their breed-names in very small letters. We can find no sign of a maker's name on either of them. They are, at left and centre, on the photo below, with Johnny Star-catto, our Schleich tomcat on the right as a comparison. The one on the left is marked ''American Shorthair. Made in China''; the one in the centre is marked ''Himalayan Persian. Made in China''. Can anyone tell us their maker and dates?

| They are adorable And so is Johnny Star-catto My first thought was PV, put they are marked too. They could be from the same period, though |

| Thanks for your information, everyone! We have found a third cat with the same markings, presumably from the same set (?). This one's breed-name is Chartreux. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Sue & Lesley castlerigg |

| They look like New Ray cats in a set I bought my daughter in the mid-late 2000s, though I don't remember well enough to be 100% positive. The stamps as you describe them are consistent, as is the painting and sculpt style. |
