I was at a country market recently, and met this artist - he does wonderful watercolours of pets!

As some of you know, my Mom had my sister's two cats, and they really became HERS over the last 4 years.

Pyka was sick for two years, had surgery, and was found to have nasal lymphoma...and had to be PTS in July.

Although meowmies are not supposed to have favourites, and though Mom loves Pyka's brother Shiney VERY much, Pyka was really her heart-cat.

I want to commission a painting for Christmas for mom...but should it be of both babies, or her departed heart-kitty? What do you think?
