My pet cat. Her name was Tama. She had lived for 12 years and went to a pet heaven. I drew her and panted her thousand times.

Hi Osamu san, I enjoy your paintings of Tama. She looks like she had a sweet spirit. I looked up the meaning of Tama online and I found several. What did your Tama's name mean? Any of these:
Tama can have multiple meanings in Japanese depending on the way it is written: 魂 this tama means "soul" 球 this tama means "Sphere" 玉 this tama means "ball" 弾 this one means "bullet"
Or I even read it might mean "jewel."
P.S. I have two 13 year old cats who are brothers. Or maybe they have me as a pet. :)
That is a lovely name. Tama was a most precious jewel. I bet you she is having fun in kitty heaven. How many cats can brag to other cats that they were painted so many times? :) She will live forever in your beautiful watercolors.

Hi Enna
My cat's name Tama means jewel in Japanese old term. Also, this is the most common name for female cat name.
Hi again Osamu san,

Hi Enna
Thank you for the nice comment. I think about Tama every time I see paintings of her.
