Satan's Little Helper redbubble #redbubble teepublic #eepublic

When I was around seven years old, my mother bought me a cat candle. I refused to burn it because I thought that doing so would destroy the "essence" of the cat that it contained, and often wondered why anyone would ever create something so beautiful just to be melted and ruined.

Although I no longer believe that cat candles are somehow connected to real cats, these Devil's Pet Candles by Thorunn Arnadottir appeal to me immensely as an adult.

This clever design takes advantage of the inherent transformation that occurs within a burning candle, leaving the viewer with a permanent souvenir once it is complete.

While I am uncertain that having one of these would have convinced me to burn it as a child, I am now looking forward to seeing these candles, (and perhaps ones featuring other animals) becoming available for sale.
