How about this one?

I would suggest to cut 2 pieces. First the cat from some 1" wood.

And the the sign from some thin, dark wood (1/8" walnut?)

The cat should be able to stand when finished.
Take care for the dimensions. The lines are a bit thick - but we have some folks in here who need it that way

EDIT: I might do one when I have a new saw...
