I've always been a bit puzzled by the whole neko thing in SL. Most people don't appear cat-like at all. They wear beautiful skins, great clothes and boots, usually with legwarmers, then slap on some ears and a tail and think they look like kittehs. They don't. They look like people with costume ears and tails, rather like Playboy bunnies. For me, neko is a distinct cat look, a mythical or storybook human-feline. Granted, there are some really wonderful kitty parts that are fun to wear, Atomic Kitty being one of our favorites. But they are just that, parts.
So, I camped at De La Fae Productions for an hour to get this insanely beautiful Snow Leopard ensemble - skin, shape, ears with color-change piercings, twitchy tail, color-change scripted claws, and proper hind legs. I think I freaked Milani out a bit, but this is me as cat.



Of course, Fidella the feline must wear proper neko clothes, so she sports Katat0nik's Heart Plaid Skirt, fatpack for L$25. This is a scripted skirt and you can color both the upper and inner skirts separately for an infinite combination of colors. Vest is from silent sparrow, blogged here, and blouse and jabot are part of the Porcelain Prince ensemble in The Black Canary lucky chair. Hair is an Aden group gift and comes in all colors, worn with or without separate braid.
