Ladies, gents, and corporeal souls I would like to announce that Mr. Persimmon Fig has finally pooped after around 36 hours. And feels loads better. His hydration has come way up and he’s being very much more active and kitten-ish. He’s not spicy despite finding him outside and is SO SWEET.

Little guy decided he likes that toasty chick brooder. I have it on a slant and have watched him easily move out from under it and back in again.

Not shown but I also didn’t know 3 week old kittens can loaf. Exactly like the adults. I’m gonna pop. Plz little dude have a mom still.

FUCK

I cannot have three cats

Partner is bringing home a bottle and kitten milk replacer; found the guy shrieking his head off in our firewood shelter. I cannot find hide nor hair of siblings or his mom.

Got him outside with some gently microwaved beans piled beneath towels and THAT in a clear-

I hope these are clear enough. If not I’m going to have to break out my magnifier because the phone camera can’t focus much closer.

Gorgeous giant beetle grubs I’m trying to ID. Time to go find out about beetle grub care lol. There’s so much suburban development in my county that the more unusual and uncommon bugs are really special so I really want to help these guys out. I am thrilled big beetles breed on our land!

Are these good enough? I like bugs, but it’s the weird outlier bugs that are my favorite! I feel like I found the arthropod version of a fallen baby bird’s nest 😂

Hey entomology bluesky! I’m in piedmont Georgia (US) and this massive oak log just came crashing out of one of my trees. Does anybody have any idea what these huge grubs are? The only huge beetles I know locally are unicorn beetles. If they ARE big beetles I want to know how to keep them safe!

One life eclipses another; Smilodon takes down a whitetail deer. Inspired by petroglyphs, cave art, and ancient Scythian art. It's weird to think that the whitetail deer survived the ice age and made it to the present but many of its predators did not. #art #smilodon #paleontology #rockart #deer

My youngest and most perfect son.

(Theoden’s not used to sleeping alone. My prize tiger plush seems to be filling in ok these days.)

Flashback to last year’s Halloween display. We do it inside because we have no outdoor sockets and no one can see the house anyway.

My heart just wasn’t in decorating this year. I think that’s ok. Warning: extremely annoying cringe Halloween music that I love lol

I did not expect the -phenomenal- response I've had to my last two pieces; especially the petroglyph one. I need to go for a walk to clear my head and figure out how to respond to the crazy outpouring of support. I'm not sure I've ever received that many comments in one shot! You are all incredible💙

Tumblr has my favorite art compliments by a country mile.

This is probably the largest art I've made in a long time; it's 16x48 inches at 300dpi. All of the animals are inspired by petroglyphs and cave art from around the world on top of the shapes found within the animals themselves. #art #caveart #petroglyph #deer #wolves #ravens #raven #wolf #elk

Unfortunately this one can't be made into prints for blatant violence (my work usually skirts it; not today), but I can likely get them made elsewhere if there's demand.

Did you know lionesses will sometimes take out their males when the pride is under intense pressure? That's pretty cool. #art

Thinking about petroglyphs again. Thinking about what I would fill a vast blank wall with. #art #drawing #rockart

The monstrous forms of two characters from a continuity that will never see the light of day. I’m still playing with Verūk’s demon design a smidge (right) but the real breakthrough was an angel’s form I didn’t hate. #art #sketch #sketchbook

I am still making art. Sorry for the deluge of text only posts and stress. Going to try and get back to several people today.

I’ve thought about Oberon’s last day every day since it happened. Dreamed about him last night again. It’s made waking up and starting the day feel strange.

Quote post with your pink art!

...this is literally the only pink art I've ever intentionally made. #anthro #furry #art

I like and try to have lots of things at different price points and in terms of mask projects different skill levels. Times are tough and belts are tight; anytime someone buys the smaller things I'll make more small things. I'm just bad at advertising what I have!

Incidentally I have MANY different kinds of treasures you can take home. Anytime you buy something tangible I know my real media is viable. Pewter is coming due for new casting! Masks are great projects too.

Petro answers his first question, possibly only spurring further questions. #art #comic #ama

I started this project a zillion years ago when I wanted to do a cave art pin set. Since my country is a dumpster fire that's not happening, but I DID finally finish the Megaloceros. #bskynightmarket #paleontology #anthropology #archaeology

Petro is one of the ways I can reset my brain; like shaking an etch-a-sketch.

Today he is taking questions and I will be drawing whatever he picks out. #art #ama #ask #OC
