Happy Birthday, Kacchan 🧡

This is very hard for me to write, because every time I say it out loud or reminded in any way, my heart just hurts and I get so shaky.

(cw: pet death, my emotions)
I wanted to apologize for the delay in posting (my comic update and art for Kacchan's birthday). My precious Chirp passed away very suddenly and unexpectedly, and it's left me a complete mess. I rescued her 17 years ago, and she's grown up with me and been with me through everything. She is my entire world, and without her, I feel so empty, and like a huge piece of me is just missing.
I love her and miss her so much, and my entire world feels completely destroyed. It feels like a nightmare I just can't wake up from.
I truly believe she is my soul cat, and I believe she will come back to me in some shape or form. Being patient is so hard.
So many people have sent me comments and messages, and it's hard to respond to them all because there are so many. But please know that every message means the absolute world to me. Reading through all the kind and encouraging messages has been a huge comfort to me, and it truly helps me feel less alone. It helps to remind me that she's still here with me, whether in spirit or a returned form when the time is right.
Some messages have left me crying from the hope they instill, and I find myself reading them over and over. So thank you so much for shedding a little bit of light in this darkness.

I found it very comforting to draw Chirpy with my favorite character, because Kacchan also brings me a lot of comfort.
Thank you so much for looking ❤️ I will be productive and have the comic update ready as soon as I can. It's almost finished, and I appreciate your patience so very much.

Take all the time you need. I still have my soul cat but I knlw his time is coming soon. I want to try to prepare myself for it but I know there's nothing I can do. Yours will definitely come back to you. She will ALWAYS be with you. Please take care if yourself, I know some days it will be hard
BLY Dreams
May Chirp find peace. This beautiful piece is all the homage he needs.
