RE: Pic of my cat.
Congrats on the cat! Go to taxidermy.net and take a look at the list of taxidermy suppliers they have on there. WASCO is one of the major ones, as well as Van Dykes and McKenzie. All of them have home tanning kits that you can purchase for a beginner, do-it-yourselfer. I've never tried them, but once I get a few more pelts ready, I'll be ordering some.
Also, when you freeze the hide like you are doing, try and make sure none of the fur is touching the skin of the cat. Fold it over so it is all skin on skin and roll it up. Thaw it out and do this if you have to.

RE: Pic of my cat.
I'm wondering, Big Buck, if you use a .22 lr or .22 mag. and were you calling? I want to start using a .22 to call fox and coyotes but want to be ready if a cat does come in. Is a .22 lr adequate up to 60 yards or so? Just picking your brain.

Just a word of caution: If you look for cheap where taxidermists are concerned that's what you'll get "cheap". Don't complain when the hair falls out, the skin falls apart or bugs get to it. Do it yourself if you must, but if it's that nice you might reconsider.
