This plate is based on my sister's cats and their best frenemy, The Orange Crusher.

| Jerry (top) and Jesse (right) are littermates adopted from the APL. |

| The Orange Crusher is a freshwater angelfish. He was about the size of a 50-cent coin when he was first purchased. |
Sadly, The Orange Crusher is no longer with us. But the kitties are just fine and finding new ways to cause trouble. Some process work for the plate is below:
