History of item:

This is a vintage carnival knock-down cat, also known as a "punk". These figures were used as targets in carnival games, where players would try to knock them over with a ball to win a prize.
The figures are typically constructed from heavy canvas filled with sawdust or other material, with a wooden base for stability.
They often feature hand-painted faces and were sometimes decorated with fur or other materials.
The cat is a common subject for these carnival targets, but other figures, such as clowns and animals, were also used.
These knock-down dolls are considered a form of American folk art.
