Description

A way overdue homage to my late cat Felix. No need for condolences, he died ages ago, back when my art was inadequate to give him the honor he deserved. He was with me for 7 good years, 6 have now passed. Thus almost same amount of time as we had together.

My character Kito is based on his design.

Made this while walking shortly after his demise: (Was long, this is the only part I was able to memorize)

Felix du Felix
I sorg og i smerte
For evig og alltid
du bor i mitt hjerte

(Felix you Felix)
(In sorrow and in pain)
(For ever and always)
(you live in my heart)

Felix oh Felix
Through sorrow and pain
Forever and always
In my hart you'll remain

Dear tigger, I am very sorry about what happened to your friend, and I myself have almost the same experience. One time after the rain had stopped, I found a little kitten and he was named Moses because I drew him out of a puddle. He grew up to be a fine tabby cat and I spoiled him rotten! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/> But one day, the weather was really bad and my mom took us to my grandparents' house just in case it was a hurricane, it really wasn't but when we came back, Moses was nowhere to be found, and I never saw him again. 😿 I still miss him very much but seeing your picture brings back happy memories, so I hope your cat rests in peace and I really think this is a very wonderful picture of him. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/>
