Cinder

On May 11th 2004, I lost my very best friend who has been with me since my 8th birthday. My kitty Cinder.

23 1/2 years later (Yes, I said 23!) she passed away after having been with me through all the good and bad times. Through the Goth years, Hippie years, dramas, traumas, ex-fiancés, and horrible jobs...she was the one wonderful constant light.  Not only is it amazing that she lived for over 23 years, but she only visited the vet twice, thanks to a mommy (me) that studied to be one, but never cared to finished. (I have major ethical and practice issues with the veterinary medical community...long story for another time).

She was my inspiration for beautiful jewelry and will continue to be an important facet in the way I view art and beauty.

Remember to thank those who inspire you.....
