Description
A gift for ... and, ironically, this was actually in the works long before you made your list or any of your comments! I guess you just needed one, huh?
So... I was remembering my cats. Which lead me to thinking of *yurizemira 's cat Pixie, who passed away a little over a year ago. Pixie looks like she was such a darling cat and I wish I could've met her. I was itching to draw something - a gift preferably - and so I shot for a digital ATC especially for one of my favorite people.
I took some little artistic liberties and it's far from perfect in many, many ways. Nonetheless, I hope you like it Zem.
Used references to try to catch how she looked somewhat. Tried...

Oh! My! God! She's so sweet! So incredibly cute!
This certainly caught me by surprise! I... I'm speechless. Or textless. Or type-less. Or something!
I can see her so clearly on my bed in that position, looking at me like that. She hated everybody, was a mean old girl. She hissed and bit and scratched and left countless scars. But she was my best friend, the only one who was always there for me. She'd always come running when I sang out loud because she thought I was in pain. She never left my side when I was sick or upset. The day I broke my arm, she slept on the broken arm that night. She was my first pet that was truly mine. I remember writing an essay to my parents when I was 11, asking to have my own cat. They contacted my vet who had a homeless litter of kittens from another patient. They brought me in to find one and Pixie climbed up onto the cage door after it was open to get to me. She snuggled up in my arms immediately, didn't even give me a chance to look at the other cats. She chose me right away.
I miss her every single day and her remains are kept in a small box in our apartment. She was just perfect for me in every way. I cry whenever I think about her but I try to follow my friend's advice. To think of the good times we had instead of remembering that they're over. Pixie helped me so much when I was younger. I've had a lot of deaths in my life but hers has definitely been the one that I've mourned the most. I just...I may not believe in Heaven but I hope there's at least a Cat Heaven for her so she can torment everyone up there.

And I know how you feel. I really miss my babies. 
She would've been 10 years old this year in December.
Remember the happy times. There's nothing like having a cat for a best friend.
