Sculpting animals from clay is an exciting creative process that appeals to both children and adults. Among the variety of animals, cats remain one of the most popular characters for creativity. Their playful poses, expressive faces, and diverse colors provide limitless scope for imagination. And what could be a better material for realizing your creative ideas than modern Air Clay?

Air Clay OKTO Sensory Art is an innovative sculpting material that combines the plasticity of traditional clay, the lightness of air clay, and ease of use. Unlike regular clay or the popular children's modeling compound playdoh, Air Clay OKTO does not stick to hands, does not leave marks on clothes and furniture, and most importantly – it is extremely soft from the first moment after opening the package, requiring no prolonged kneading.
