Nope, you are getting confused. That there kitty up there is a
derivative of Mike Rosulek's Nika. 

I have to admit that Mike's comment about making a nice sig pic
is a little cryptic and could be an invitation to use Nika
in your Sigs...which some people have actually done !  Hmm.

 Nika is sleepy

Do you like them? I'll post back when I draw some more. I already 
made an animation with Nika, and I'll post that soon. "Nika stalks 
the mouse" would make a nice sig pic or sig blank (hint, hint). If 
you're wondering, I really do have a cat named Nika.

It was actually a little dispute over who the artist was for a cat
pic. In the end a lot of people ended up claiming it as
"MY VERY OWN CAT" :) all in fun of course:)

It was finally laid to rest when it lost all its 9 lives
and went to heaven (or hell ;)

The head is from the original cat:

She said she uses the cat, she didn't say she made it.
It was done by Felix Lee.

This ascii art work is great but myself being new to the net and pc world
am wondering what is the best text editor to use to cut ascii from these
postings and paste into, Ive tried Wordpad in win95 but it doesn't work
very well...
Any suggestions?

Cheers4now  Steve
