#ffxiv you just know she would absolutely make a trip to solution 9 just to jump into the Arcadion
A bright fan art of final fantasy 14, featuring a character from Stormblood, Sadu, in an arena from the Dawntrail Arcadion raids. She is in the center, surrounded by most of the characters that were fought as bosses in the raids. They are all about to have a very fun fight.

I wish so badly to know more of how cats think. My Archie has no issues pulling open cabinet doors and getting inside them, but when he wants out (which is a much easier process) he starts crying because he cant figure out push.
A cat tax photo of a piebald cat named Archie. He has a mostly white face with a tabby hood and a mismatched tabby mustache, and he is leaning in, intently looking just above the camera, where his humans hand was. He wanted pets. (I gave him pets after.)

All of my 2024 digital art learning vs something from each month of 2025. Just a sampling. I'm so fascinated by how far I've come in just two years. Where was this dedication from my brain ten years ago lol.

#art #digitalart
Its a rather poorly put together collage of very colorful digital artworks. These were the first ones I ever made, and there were already large improvements being made with each one as I learned how to use my drawing pad and the drawing programs, Krita and ClipStudio Paint. This is my 2025 collage, which contains just some of what I made digitally this year. Admittedly these are the best ones, but there are clear improvements to composition, color, lighting, posing, and even texture over time. For the first time this year, I made something that I think is actually good. I can't wait to see where I go next year.

I am very familiar with those eyes
Three cats are sitting on a desk. In the front on the left, one is loafing on a white cushion. His name is Connor and he is white on the bottom and tabby on top, with a brown nose bridge. Sitting up behind him is Archie, who is also white on the bottom and tabby on the top but with a white nose bridge. On the right side of the picture a fully tabby cat named Sky is sitting mostly facing away from the camera, but she has her head turned to look over her shoulder. All three are looking intently at their human's dinner (not in the picture), hoping for a bite of chicken.

I know #roevember is supposed to be a gpose challenge, but I don't like gposing so I celebrated by making an #art of my roe, Sparrow. I hope that's ok!
This is a Final Fantasy 14 fan art - A large lady sits on the edge of a gold-colored platform, her legs dangling, clutching a bouquet of lilies in her gloved hand. Her skin is pink, her hair is purple and pulled up in a fancy ponytail. A blue bird sits beside her, head tilted with curiosity, and there is a blue glow emanating up from below them. In the game, this is a location from the Endwalker expansion.

All four of mine were upset, but this one made it everyone's problem as he screamed and knocked over all the things and chewed on my ears.
A cat with tabby on his top half and white on his bottom half is leaning into the picture from the right side, his greenish eyes wide. His name is Connor, and he is making sure everyone knows he thinks daylight savings time is bullshit.

From my Archie to yours: yay! Human cuddles!
A white and tabby cat named Archie is asleep hugging his human's arm as she tries to subtly use her keyboard without waking him.

My Connor has busted out a couple of times, usually by knocking a screen I had thought secure out of a window, and Im so lucky to have a community of neighbors who understand how much he means to me who helped me track him down within 12 hours of his prison breaks. He is absolutely also chipped tho.
A tabby and white cat named Connor sits on the back of a beige couch, looking wistfully off to the right hand side of the picture. Not in the picture is what he was staring at. He was staring at his human's pizza, trying to find an opening to get himself a bite.

With all the talk of statues for him lately I can't help but wonder if this is actually what she dreamed of
Its a poorly mashed together picture of that ugly confederate statue with Charlie's smiling face on it.

I know that face. They're gonna all grow up to be able to be very very skilled beggars.
A black cat named Sunny is sitting on a pillow with a minty green pillow on it, her bright greenish-yellowish eyes turned up as she begs for some treats.

The meme of the grim reaper at the claw machine, but the claw has grasped nothing. The reaper is saying 'darn' because he didn't get his prize (yet).

Happy #caturday - in celebration, Sunny has liberated the treats from the treat drawer!
A black cat named Sunny is sitting on a wood counter top. Her eyes are huge, shiney circles as she looks expectantly at the person behind the camera, waiting for treats. Behind her, a tabby spotted and white cat named Archie sniffs an empty, teal colored drawer for any treats that may be left. But there are no treats because Sunny opened the treat drawer and she and her fellow cats pulled all the treats out and ripped open the bags and feasted. They did it so quietly that it went unnoticed, but the human knows it was Sunny because she has liberated the treats several times in the past, which is why they were in this drawer. Now the human will have to find a new hiding place...

I love digital art cos it lets me do wild things without ruining the piece I'm working on. Like turn the main shadow layer up to 100 just to see what it looks like. #art #learningart #digitalart
A digital artwork made by someone who is still learning how to make art and figuring out their style, it is a picture of a blue mushroom person wearing a yellow raincoat and yellow rain boots walking away from the viewer. She is in the process of putting her umbrella away. There is a red truck on the right side of the road, several shops, and a rainbow of lanterns above the street to light the way. But for fun, I turned up the shadow layer to 100%, so the whole piece has an almost abstract look to it.

I hope this makes your day greater. My oldest cat is greatly enjoying ask hank anything.
A tabby and white cat, whose name I Connor, is laying on a silver laptop, covering the touchpad and most of the keyboard. His right foot is properly curled but his left foot is peeking out from under his chest. On the laptop screen is Hank Green, answering a question about Godzilla.

Of course Im gonna pay the cat tax for the boys even tho I can't share their 'newly adopted' pictures.
Connor, a tabby and white cat with a brown coloring over his nose, has his head nestled in my hand as he lounges on top of my sketchbook while I try to practice drawing. There is no drawing allowed, only cat petting. Archie, a tabby and white cat with white coloring over his nose, is rolling around on a beige couch. All four feet are in the air, three are curled while his back leg is stretched out a bit. He does love gentle tummy rubs.

Sky, a tabby kitten, is on a red and white blanket, leaning away from the person taking her picture. She was terrified of people at first, but she also liked getting petted and getting treats. She was the shy sister, preferring to disappear into a hiding spot over hissing like Sunny. Sky, a tabby kitten, looks up curiously at the person taking her picture. There is a large storm door window behind her that let her enjoy looking out at the world at her foster house before I adopted her. Even though she was warming up to her foster, she was still very wary of people. Sunny, a void cat, all grown up, laying on a perch beside a window with her paw stretched out towards the camera. While she still doesn't like strangers, she has otherwise become a very confident cat who loudly tells me what she wants and loves cuddling up with my legs at night. Sky, a tabby cat, is lounging on a window perch beside a window, though the blinds are closed to try to keep the hot sun from warming the room. Her front paws are dangling off the edge of the perch. She has become her own sort of confident, quietly squeaking when she wants something and not letting any of the other cats push her around. Though while she is very gentle she has also become a little bit of a diva with the most bombastic stink eye when she doesn't get what she wants.

Just one? I only have baby pictures for the girls unfortunately. And my earliest pictures of the boys are on a hard drive instead of my phone. I should correct that at some point.
Sky, a tabby kitten, and Sunny, one of her void sisters, in their original intake pictures. They are both looking warily at the camera in a soft beige zip up kennel. They had another sister that the rescue was able to catch a week earlier because these two were the stubborn sisters. The rescue tried four times before they caught these girls. Sky, a tabby kitten, and Sunny, one of her void sisters, in their photo when they arrived at their foster home. Both are looking warily out of their soft grey carrier. Sunny, a void kitten, is on her back on a white blanket, looking up at the camera. She was very scared of people as a baby, but people also gave her churus, which she likes a lot. Sunny, a void kitten, is curled up on a red and blue blanket, hissing at the person who took her picture. Of the three sisters in her litter, she was the spicy one.

I got a rocking chair for my porch last year. I would have got one sooner but I speant two years fighting with myself over what kind of chair I wanted.

Just look at this beauty.
A porch camera looks down over a front porch at night, where a white rocking chair is positioned for peak garden enjoyment. A baby gate is positioned on the porch entrance as a groundhog deterrent, but it also stops solicitors from knocking on the door, which is behind the chair because the front door never gets used so why not put a chair in front of it?

I can add some Archie tum to the general mental health well being of the world
A cat named Archie is laying on a red orange couch with his tummy and his feet in the air. His tummy is white, but he has tabby coloration on his legs and back. His toes are pink. A cat named Archie is laying on a red orange couch with his tummy and his feet in the air. His human, who is wearing a pink sweatshirt, is rubbing his tummy, which is not a trap. He really does like gentle tummy rubs. His tummy is white, but he has tabby coloration on his legs and back. His toes are pink.

Connor says its time for bed (and, more importantly, cuddles).
A cat named Connor, who's face is mostly tabby colored, but whose cheeks and chin are white, peeks under the left side of a book that is being held open by his human. The book is Everything is Tuberculosis by John Green. Please consider reading it, its quite good.

A tabby and white cat named Connor sits wide eyed (because he heard something) beside a book with a bright yellow cover. The book is John Green's Everything is Tuberculosis, signed edition, a very important book for current times in the US. A purple-ish John Green signature on a white page.

Sunny is a fabulous and underutilized cat name. (I would know, I also have a Sunny. She's a void tho haha.)
A black cat named Sunny is sitting next to a window, looking back over her shoulder at her silly human.
