“Dotty” didn’t exactly own the place but no one ever explained that to her. This warm, fuzzy little kitten matured with a grace and dignity befitting its distinguished presence. We realized one day the chair she claimed as her own had become a status symbol. I’ve known executives who take control of their space the same way Dotty did. Authority was in the air from the moment they were seated. So we made her our Chairman and I painted this official portrait. There have been other cats we’ve loved as much but none that carried the executive clout that Dotty owned.
