My Love! Love Coty! I am posting the very first digital pictures of yours taken in the latter half of 1999, when you became 8 years old. Before this period, there exist only pictures in prints and they are somewhat difficult to post on Web pages.

Here are the 3 series of your pictures. The 1st series consist of your pictures at home, the 2nd those outdoors before the snow, and the 3rd after the snow.

	You were at home young and healthy.
	Remember this picture that had been posted at the blog announcing your death. The big print-out of this picture is still standing in front or your mahogany urn in our living room.
	Until the last two years of your life, you would often turn yourself over with the belly up to invite petting. I wish I could feel your warm and soft belly again.
	This is your picture at Tall Mountain with Mr. and Mrs. Sakamoto. They had been transferred to Hong Kong and now they are back in Japan retired from the business.
	At Central Park in the late autumn with my daughter
	The female dog next door really liked you.
	You are doing the necessary thing in the snow.
