This jewel was originally created as part of the 'Familiar II' Collection, and joined the 'FAMILIAR' Collection in June of 2026.

Last Winter, my family adopted two cats that walked into their yard from the woods of North Carolina. Young, playful and sweeter than they perhaps should be, these two cats are the first my family has ever owned after a lifetime of dogs, due to my superstitious grandmother. One is a classic tabby and one is a black cat they named in honor of my own black cat Diego who’s been gone now since the winter of 2019. Since they were already a bonded pair, they play throughout the night, waking my family with their antics and disheveling the furniture, even recently breaking a lamp. This nighttime activity, which many of us call ‘The Witching Hour’ for our cats nighttime zoomies, is a biological instinct called ‘The Crepuscular Hour’ which refers to animals that are active around dawn or dusk, such as cats, whose inherent hunting activities during these hours when prey are also active, cause them to be alert and rambunctious in domestic settings.

Here, the ‘tumble’ of cat claws plays out this wild hunt, whether it's playing with other cat mates, walking over your head while you're sleeping, or knocking over objects in your home, startling you awake. This jewel is also meant as a memorial piece to those who have lost cats, in honor of my Diego.
