Discovery
A few years ago there was a cat that used to visit me almost every day. When I got home from work he was usually on my front porch, when I worked in my yard he'd stop by and I'd even find him roaming through my garage. He was friendly and always made me happy. I called him yellow kitty.
I found out a few years later from my neighbor who yellow kitty actually belonged to. While I was talking with this neighbor he referred to yellow kitty as orange kitty to my astonishment and surprise. I instantly felt betrayed by yellow kitty, that he was cheating on our special friendship.
I got over that, and still enjoyed yellow kitty's company when I was gardening and all the times I saw him peeking in my windows from outside.
Eventually the owner moved and yellow kitty is now a fond memory I think of often. This drawing, named Discovery, is yellow kitty and his love of exploring the outdoors.
