Caturday Art - In Tribute to Pixie

Hallo, Effurrybody!

Many of you will no doubt remember Princess PixieCato aka Pixie, who came before Us and who flew away to the Rainbow Bridge on December 23, 2011.

Since Mummy and We are Mewish, it seemed to Us fitting to commemorate the Hebrew date of her receiving her Angel Wings. This would have been three days ago, on Wednesday, when We lit the fourth Hanukkah candle - but We thought it would be nice to wait until today, and to honour Pixie by featuring her in our contribution to Athena's Caturday Art blog hop.

Mummy's beloved Pixie succumbed to kidney disease at the age of sixteen and a half - but in this picture, she was just seven years old, in the peak of health and at the height of her Beauty. 
Mummy used LunaPic to blend Pixie's picture with a Menorah which She found on a clipart site, as it was at Hanukkah that Pixie had to leave for the Bridge and because this evening, We light the seventh Hanukkah candle.








Then, She chose the Floating Art effect and added a picture frame border.  









Of course, no picture could really do her justice, but We think this gives you a good idea - and We think that Pixie herself would have liked the artwork.




Mummy misses Pixie - and Pixie's brofur Possum - furry much, and her eyes still get leaky when She thinks about them, but She knows that both of them are watching over her from the Rainbow Bridge and that She will see them again one day.

Now, before We wish you all  Shavoua Tov (A Good Week) and go to light the Hanukkah candles, here is the link to the blog hop. First, Athena's logo: 



  



And off We go....

I remember Pixie from way back and Possum too. I sincerely love how you honored her with the lighting of the fourth Hanakkah candle. And I love the depiction of it. My eyes are leaky too. Really and truly. God bless the little ones.

You Mom made a beautiful artwork from Pixie's photo. It is bittersweet to remember those who have come before us, but we try to remember all the joyful times and know that they are happy in Spirit World.
