It began with a cat, and a friend.

In 2019, a close friend of TY’s lost her cat to illness. Seeing how deeply her friend was grieving, TY drew on her love for animals to recreate the cat in wool and give it to her as a keepsake. That small piece marked the beginning of her wool-felting journey.

Today, Feltilo has become an Eden for many beloved pets. With a deep love for them, TY puts care into every needle stroke, hoping to create more soulful pieces for you.

Our story ↗
A few things you may wonder

Before we begin

How much will my portrait cost?

When will my portrait be ready?

Made in about 20 calendar days from your initial payment. Transit time is additional; dates are confirmed in your proposal.

What is the difference between layered wool and rooted wool?

Layered wool: Thin layers of wool follow the direction of the coat and are needle-felted onto the surface. The result is a close-lying finish that brings out colour, markings and the shape of the face. F03 uses this approach. Rooted wool: Small tufts of wool are anchored into the base, leaving the ends free to create a fuller, fluffier coat. F04 uses this approach. We’ll help you choose the finish that suits your companion’s coat and the look you would like.

Will I see the finished piece before shipping?

Yes. You can review the current preview in your private portal, approve the piece or describe a change for the studio to assess.

Are my photos private?

Reference photographs are used to assess and make your portrait. Public sharing requires a separate permission process; it is not required to commission a piece.
