| RIP Chainsaw |
I am sad to say that my cat, Chainsaw, passed away today. The past few days he took a turn for the worst. He had been doing well up until last week it seemed and then he just started to go downhill. I was preparing for this day for a long time, since he was 18 and had been battling kidney disease. However, I still was unprepared for how much it would affect me. He was my little buddy and an inspiration for much of my work. He is actually my logo. Granted, that could be any cat to anyone looking at it, but it is Chainsaw to me. We got him when I was in the 4th grade. I remember taking him to Show & Tell and he was a big hit with my classmates. He was an awesome cat. Even though much of the past years he was more annoying (due to the old age), I will miss his annoying self. I am just happy that I was able to spend the entire night with him (we watched Star Trek) and be there for him when he decided it was time to go. He didn't seem to be in any pain and it seemed pretty quick. RIP Chainsaw, I will miss you a lot.
And on top of that, I actually got an internship with a graphic design company. I had an interview on Wednesday and I got it. I actually start tomorrow and I am hoping that I can make it through the day without tearing up or full out crying. I just have to keep my mind busy. I am very excited about it. So I will be working that part time and still working my part time retail job, along with creating my own illustrations. Going to be busy and probably really exhausted the first few weeks.
So I will eventually have new work to show.
Thanks to all of you who sent me *hugs*. Even though they are only internet hugs, I still appreciate them as much as real ones. :) I will be okay eventually, but it will take some time.

Sending you so so many hugs! I lost my old lady last year and my heart is still broken. I did a blog post a while back about pet tribute doodles.. I don't charge for them, people just donate! If you think you might like one and when you're ready.. You know where I am! Much love kitty xxx
Thank you for all the hugs! Sorry to hear about your loss too. *hugs*
Awww that's so sad. He's in a nice happy place with lots of pillows and little mice to chase, and maybe a female friend. It makes me sad when my cats will..... I can't say it. :(
