Illustration Friday "Memory"

There was a page in an old children's book I once had that had a drawing of all these family pets that had passed away that fascinated me. This is sort of my version of that drawing, but with some of my own pets. They gave me and my family so many great memories,  I figured this would be a good one to share for this week's Illustration friday : )


*Chloe (left) and Koko (right), half siblings (belgian sheepdog and belgian malinois- same mother, but from different litters.. their mom was a police dog)
*Wishful the parakeet (I wished for a parakeet for like, two months straight before I got her, hence the name)
*Hermione (aka Ratty) the dumbo Rat who used to get her own muffin special made for her (no chocolate chips!)
*The three brother cats Lucky, Baby and Max (left to right), who we found in the attic of our garage when they were a day old.  Max seriously had a smiley face pattern on his belly!
