The artist and owners of the pets whose portraits are displayed on this site request that you do not copy and/ or use the featured drawings in any way. Some of the pets are no longer with us and the artist has spent a lot of time capturing the essence of the animals and hence repsect for both the uniqueness of the artwork and animal would be much appreciated by all concerned.
