Halloween

My company is organizing a Halloween pumpkin-carving contest today. I am putting in an entry. This my very first attempt at pumpkin-carving :-). Can you figure out what it is?





I did the carving late on Saturday night after some eight back-breaking hours of packing, cleaning and moving. If not anything, I think I should be given some award for the most enthusiasm :-). Hehe, not really! I had already bought the pumpkin on Friday evening (when I was still in good shape) and did not feel like throwing it away. So I was forced to carve it. But once I started, I found it very good fun!

Update
I won the second prize for my pumpkin and got a Target gift card :-)!

It definitely looks like a cat and you've done really well if that's what you wanted to carve :-). But just asking, in the 2nd picture, how is there a light inside the pumpkin? Did u put a candle?

Thank you, thank you :-). Yeah, people at work too were impressed with my first attempt. Yup, I had put tea-light candles into the pumpkin.
