Sorry for all the cat posting lately. It's really been triggering my anxiety and I've needed to vent my concerns or get consumed by them. Now that Sirius is rapidly recovering, though, I'm gonna cool it with all the personal stuff for now. I know y'all are tired of seeing it.

Very, very gently: 12 isn't THAT old for an indoor cat. Quickly googling, life expectancy for an indoor cat is 12-18 years. He could easily live several more years. And even if he can't, if he's got something really painful and not treatable, it might be good to get him some pain medicine. But an infection will only get worse, and antibiotics can fix him right up.
Oh! And if he has really big problems going to the vet/the car, they can prescribe him gabapentin, which will calm him down. Seriously, I have a cat that *will not* get in her carrier without it. It's basically magic.
To be perfectly honest, and I know this isn't a great excuse, but we can't really afford to go to the vet. Every vet in the area is so expensive. Frankly, there's tons of doctors offices in our area in general and 99% of them are outrageously expensive. That's one of the reasons I still haven't gotten a therapist lol.
But yeah, other than that, he has been clearly improving. He's super active, his appetite has been quickly returning, and he's not in any pain, as far as we can tell by feeling around his body. If he was in obvious pain/distress then we would absolutely try to scrape together the funds, but he's pretty much back to his happy, healthy self. He's just really skinny right now. I have hope that he's got a couple more years left in him.

Hey, have you taken Sirius to the vet? He might have a treatable infection
We haven't yet, but I think it'll cause way more stress than it's worth. He's terrified of even going in the car, let alone going to a completely different place to be handled by strangers. He's obviously recovering and, as far as I can tell, he isn't in any pain or discomfort aside from some joint issues. That doesn't mean there isn't anything wrong with him because clearly there is, but I don't want to push him, not at his age.

In spite of everything, Sirius is doing a lot better! He not only ate a good bit today--about half of what he normally eats--but he's taken himself to the food bowl multiple times. He can jump on and off my bed with no obvious discomfort. His nose is wet, his ears are cool to the touch, and his eyes are bright and alert. His bones are creaky, but he can still outpace us when we're trying to put him back to bed. He's so happy, and we're so happy he's happy. I'm starting to hope that maybe he'll actually pull through.

Sirius is still alive, but it's clear that he's nearing the end. He still won't eat more than a nibble here and there, and while he's still fine drinking a little water on his own, he has a bad smell in his breath that says that his kidneys are probably failing. He's been mobile and happy, though, which is the most any of us can hope for. He purrs often, fluffs, and begs for lots of attention. When he saw me crying, he gave me some little chirps and laid down next to me. God, I'm gonna miss him.

His brother decided to keep him company <3
My cat Sirius isn't eating and I'm worried 😟 He's elderly (11, almost 12, years old) and not eating is a bad sign at his age. I'm hoping he's just not feeling good and that he'll get better, but at his age, I'm not sure.

Oh man, I was going through my Google Drive and I found some old SU fan art I made on the tablet I had in high school. I've probably shared it here before but it's been so long I might as well share it again. These are pretty much my first and only attempts at digital art.

Probably my favorite, made a few days before Sworn to the Sword premiered. I was so excited lol. I realize the shading makes absolutely no sense, but it is what it is.

Okay, this is cringe but I actually liked Ronaldo a decent amount of time. The paper background was from a promo one of the people who work on the show posted for this episode.

A couple of Gregrose! Probably inspired by We need To Talk. I think this really showcases how inconsistent my art style was/is.
Tumblr media
And here's another example of my art style being inconsistent, albeit this is just a sketchy doodle. These were all made during the summer of 2015, by the way, so there's very little time between each piece.

And finally, here's a gem design I made for one of my favorite stones, Celestite! I don't remember anything about her backstory--clearly I had something in mind--but I still kinda like her design.
