Description
Once I had a cat called Tore
Actually his name from the breeder was El Torro
and he was an Abyssinian,
The closest cat buddy I have had,
we understood eachother totally,
and he followed me everywhere.
So much I cried when he was run over by a car!
not even three years old.
I have only one photo of him, and it is bad and full of spots.
So...today I got an idea,
I scanned it in 600 dpi and it looked awful,
But I painted him from that photo.
I think it turned out better than I had expected,
so now I have a memory of him.
I am sure he purrs in cat heaven seeing this :-)
Thanks for viewing and comments!

Gun this is so touching. You did a great job painting this lovely memory. I am totally sure he has a great big cat smile on his face. This should link your spirits until you arrive at the Rainbow Bridge where he will meet you and the two of you will go on from there together. V
