Update
🕑 Added 2023-04-04 18:29:32 +0000 UTCI had to say goodbye to my cat Edward Saturday morning. He was the perfect cat and I was lucky to have him the whole sixteen years of his life. It’s never long enough, but we made as much of it as we could.
I have been a complete mess. I’ve had to step away from the office; too many memories. It’s getting easier a bit each day. I’m no longer sobbing whenever I’m not in bed. I expect to be back later this week.
This means that March’s pinup (which was Ensigns Tendi and Mariner, btw) will probably post early next week, but I’ll try to finish it as soon as I can.
Comics will likely return shortly after.
I’m also planning to open up for pinup commissions this month to help cover the not-insubstantial vet bills. I’ll post more about that soon.
Thank you all for your patience and understanding and for continuing to be here. Thank you.

My condolences for your loss, I went through the same pain when I had to put down my pet hedgehog Lily nearly a year ago, and I was the one that made the final call to do so while holding her till her last breath.

He looks ever the distinguished gentleman. I always ♥️ tuxedo cats. Sorry to hear of your loss Garth. You can see my beautiful girl -Anya- in my profile pic. I don't know what I'd do without her, and I understand the loss you feel for Edward. I hope you can grieve and remember all the days you shared with him.

My heart goes out to you, Garth. In your grieving but also, I’m sure, in your gratitude for the incredible love and wonder you experienced with Edward. I’m glad you are letting yourself grieve, for as long as we let the pain of loss flow through, we also remain open to the joy, laughter, connection, and love we’ve experienced with that being, and as we make room for the pain, so too do we create expanses for the love. Blessed days, Garth, sending a hug your way.

So sorry to hear that, Garth. We lost our family dog last year after 14 years, so I can imagine what you're going through. Take all the time you need to process this.

I am so sorry for your loss. My bulldog went about a year ago, and it's so devastating.

What a sweet cat, Thanks for the pictures. I’ve lost one before and I know how hard it can be. Take your time.
Edward looked like a very sweet soul ❤️ I have a tuxedo cat too, and I can't imagine the loss you must be feeling 😔

I lost my Sable not long ago. It was months before I stopped seeing her out of the corner of my eye. Sorry for your loss.

Take your time my dude, losing a pet is a tough situation so there's no need to rush, we'll still be here when you get back.

It's the hardest thing to let them go, but it's the fulfillment of our vow to take care of them. You have my sympathy.
