Pair of Miniature Ceramic Cat Figurines

The image displays two small ceramic cat figurines, likely made of porcelain given their smooth, glazed appearance. Both figurines are predominantly white with hand-painted black and orange/brown markings, giving them a calico or tuxedo cat aesthetic. They appear to be fairly small, possibly miniature or thimble-sized, based on their scale relative to the surrounding objects. One cat is depicted in a seated or reclining pose, while the other is more upright, sitting with its front paws extended. The painting is somewhat simplistic, indicating they might be mass-produced decorative items rather than fine art ceramics. There are no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear, suggesting they are in good to very good condition. The glaze appears consistent and shows no signs of crazing. Due to the lack of clear maker's marks or distinguishing stylistic elements, it's difficult to pinpoint an exact manufacturing origin or date, but they likely date from the mid-20th century to the present, common for collectible animal figurines. The craftsmanship suggests a charming, somewhat whimsical quality, typical of miniature porcelain animal collectibles. They are unpainted on the underside according to the available views, which is common for figurines of this type.
