In Bob's own words:
"This is the first cat that fell in love with me at Bob's studio. Bob's only cat then. He would follow me everywhere in the studio. Then I asked him to pose. This big cat would hold a pose with no problem. I was amazed! He posed for me a number of times. As soon as I walked into Bob's studio he would jump on my lap and purr & ignore everyone else, shooting that day. This cat was my buddy. When he passed away of old age, Bob O. never got another cat. I missed him. I wish I could find pics of him posing? He was a good boy!"
The cat's name was Jethro. The "Bob" mentioned is Bob Osonovitch, who owned the photo studio where many artists went to get their reference photos done.
This is Savage Sword of Conan #92 from September 1983.
