Persian Cat Handbags

I was watching Cats 101 on Animal Planet and saw what is quite possibly the strangest thing I have ever seen. Danelle German is a cat groomer who has taken up spinning the hair of Persian cats into handbags (which sell for over $100). The idea came to her when she was shaving Persians for the summer weather. German said that she just hated to waste such beautiful fur and set out to find a use for it. People off of the street were interviewed for the Cats 101 show and they seemed to be divided as to whether this was creepy or cute. Many people seem to think this is a great keepsake of a beloved cat while others think it is strange and gross. While I adore cats, I have to say I'm not sure about carrying around a purse made of one.
