Gorgeous portrait...and effects, Rob! I love cats too - and some are just SO-O loveable, aren't they?! ;-) What was your best friend's name? :-) #1090246

Rob Bishop February 07, 2005

Thanks Carolyn. His name was "Face". When I picked him up at the SPCA, the first thing he did was smash his face into mine. He always greeted me that way. #1090284

Fantastic image of a beautiful animal Rob. So sorry for your loss. This is a great memorial though. Mom and Dad had a Maine Coon cat as well and they were heart broken when they had to say goodbye. They have another now and she is a true sweetheart! #1091038
