Keepers of my heart

A picture of me and the keepers of my heart.
This is purely a personal piece as I wanted to draw a picture of our cats, they have been a part of my family for almost all my life but one day might be gone so I wanted something to always remind me of the time I had with them.

So, to tell a bit about the cats in the picture (you can skip this if you want):

Mixed-colored yellow far left: Nella aka Paavo. The baby of the group. Naïve and childish but pretty cute too. Was born with some of her guts out but we just pushed them back in. Even when she's getting old I just can't stop seeing her as a kitten.

Gray one: Tytti. The mother of the other three as well as some others that were given away. Most well-mannered and beautiful cat I've known, really one of the best cats ever.

Mixed-colored brown sleeping: Nalle. More heavily-built than the others. A real scaredy-cat and kind of a pest when wanting attention, but I can't help but love her. Her tail really has a tuft like that at the end because of some genetic stuff.

Mixed-colored yellow far right: Pandora and Pansku. Used to be somewhat unpredictable though she's a lot better mannered these days (except if you touch her tail, she's really touchy about people touching her tail). Was once chosen the best Burmese cat in Finland. Lives at my sister's place now, but makes my day every time I go to see her.

Okay, about the piece now.

As some might guess, this was somewhat influenced by QueenOfDorks's chibis. It was real fun to work on too, though the mixed coloring of some of the cats gave me some trouble... Oh well.
