Not sure this counts as craft... but this is Eric, made from recycled copper. I prefer to work with black iron but had the old copper (found in a field) that's got some gorgeous blues in and I wanted to make a cockerel with it.
I had a cat called Eric ! He died just before our first lockdown, 10 weeks short of his 22nd birthday.
your work of art has inspired me to have a go at producing a ‘memorial’ to Eric. xx
@NormandyLiz your Eric is wonderful - and the nearest my hen is likely to get to a cockerel. He also has the virtue of being silent but I do love Bess's chunterings when we're down in the potager where she lives.

I am very happy to have inspired you, it sounds a lovely thing to do. How are you going to do it? And please show us the results.
I’m thinking of a “mosaic” picture paving stone of him, to place in the sunny spot where he used to sprawl 😍 A winter project so there won’t be anything to show for a while yet !

Thanks, @Obelixx. I wish I had a Bess.
