Edward Gorey (American, 1925–2000) Seventeen Cats on the Front Steps of 82 Maple Street No two cats stand, sit, stretch, or snooze quite the same way. A dignified calico tucks her paws neatly under her, while an adolescent tabby lolls like a possum, with feet in the air. The relaxed residents of 82 Maple Street evidence the lifelong love and attention Edward Gorey afforded his feline friends. Meet them all in this 300-piece jigsaw puzzle.

Fun and Cute! submitted by clarka on June 26, 2022, 9:26pm I love the artwork, and the puzzle was lots of fun to do! A little harder than I normally like them to be, with lots of like colors, but easy enough with the number of pieces.

Quick, fun puzzle submitted by choichr on June 16, 2023, 2:43pm This is a simple puzzle with decently large pieces. This puzzle took me around an hour to finish. It is quick but fun. I definitely enjoyed seeing the different personalities of the cats in the puzzle.

Challenging and Charming submitted by Meginator on June 24, 2023, 9:48pm This puzzle offers a great balance of fun and challenge, with a lot of similarities in colors and patterns between different sections but enough contextual variation to make it come together quickly once you spend some time with it. The pieces are large and hold together very well, which is particularly helpful in a puzzle with so much similarity in its visual elements, and the image is typical Gorey, both unsettling and charming in equal measure. This one was a lot of fun, especially as a cat owner familiar with many of the personalities Gorey depicts in his cats here.

Fun submitted by trina05 on July 24, 2023, 10:54pm The puzzle pieces are nicely sized and sturdy. There is a challenge with the limited color variations but it still came together easily

Cute Puzzle submitted by tmkenn on July 28, 2023, 7:57pm This puzzle is really cute, there isn't a ton of variation in color, but it doesn't make it too challenging either. It's cute to see all the different cats!
