Brief Introduction

In honor of my cat's memory, I opened a special store on Zazzle.com, selected three rescued cats, and began to (digitally) paint them. My artist royalties (usually between 10 & 20% of the purchase price) will be donated to the shelters housing these animals. Know a great shelter or rescue? Nominate them here.

Charlie: Helotes, TX

Shelter Cat: Charlie



The Painting:
Charlie print
December 8, 2010
Charlie is the second cat I have painted as part of this project. I fell in love with his beautiful blue eyes immediately. Strange that they didn't make it into the painting, huh? Then I read his profile: 

Charlie is a rescued male kitten with a handsome orange coat and white gloves ala Michael Jackson. He's 8 weeks old, almost two pounds, and full of energy. When he grows up he wants to be a soccer player. He has some paw-perfect shots already, and no ball is safe when Charlie is on his game. He loves to sit on your shoulder when you read or watch TV, but you'll have to turn the volumn up because his motor runs non-stop. Charlie is friendly, gentle and ready to play. He'll make a great family pet.
Too cute. I hope someone adopts this little guy soon! He sounds like a special and very entertaining dude. 

I heard from the shelter today. He has been adopted! But there are more kittens and cats, if you're looking :)
