Patience & Squash are two stoneware cat figures, each 8.5 cm tall. One holds salt, the other pepper. Quail in England handcrafts each set with a focus on lifelike expression — eyes, fur texture, and posture are modeled after real cats. The stoneware is food-safe and fired at high temperature, making the figures durable for daily use at the table. The holes on top are sized for precise seasoning control.
Care and maintenance
Wipe clean with a damp cloth after use. Avoid soaking in water — the stoneware can absorb moisture through the holes on top.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Quail’s cat salt & pepper set and their dog version?
The cat version (Patience & Squash) features more detailed fur texture and a slimmer body shape than the dog version. Both are 8.5 cm tall, but the cats sit more upright, while the dogs are often modeled lying down. The material and function are identical.
Can Quail salt and pepper sets be washed in the dishwasher?
No. The stoneware may crack under high temperatures and strong water exposure. Instead, wipe the figures with a damp cloth. If spices get stuck in the holes, use a toothpick gently to remove residues.
How much salt and pepper can the figures hold?
Each figure holds about 15-20 ml of seasoning — enough for 2-3 weeks of typical table use. The base has a stopper you can remove for refilling.
Is the Quail cat salt & pepper set a good gift for cat owners?
Yes, especially as a hostess or birthday gift for someone who loves cats and appreciates functional kitchen design. The set is practical enough for daily use but detailed enough to display as decoration between meals.
Does Quail make other animal designs besides cats?
Yes. Quail produces salt & pepper sets featuring bananas, parrots, dogs, toucans, hedgehogs, and sheep. All are handmade in stoneware with the same level of detail as the cat version. Dims Studio carries selected designs.

Handmade & unique product
Most of my products are handmade or hand-painted. This means that there may be variations in color, finish, and minor imperfections. These variations are a natural part of the handmade look and make each product unique. Minor differences are therefore not considered defects.
