I had to euthanize my cat Phineas recently, which was a horribly difficult thing to do. It was necessary, but still difficult. He was young, only about 3 years old, but he was around long enough for me to feel the loss of his presence around the house.

This is a study I just painted of him, kind of in memoriam… he would often sit on his back against a wall with his arms dangling over his stomach, and we would comment that he looked like he was watching tv with a beer in one hand and a remote control in the other. He did a lot of funny things like that, and I miss his antics. I guess he was like a kid to me, and although he would misbehave a lot, he would also make me laugh a lot.

RIP buddy.
