"Nearly 200 Cats Dead in Humane Society Fire

Article -> [link]

One of the animal shelters near us has burned down, claiming the lives of nearly two hundred cats. Not only have all those animals died, now a major city is without an animal shelter, and will be facing a big bill to rebuild. Being a non-profit organization, they're going to be relying on donations to get up and running again."

i personally cannot contribute much since i'm way behind on fanime assignments and still have commissions and trades to finish, but since animal shelters are very important imo (all three of my cats are shelter cats), i've offered to do a simple character sketch for the winner of the raffle.

so, please help out if you can, there are plenty of ways: offer a prize for the raffle, donate, or pass the word along to anyone who you think might be able to help.

thanks!

alright! since I'm queen of procrastination and also have a goldfish memory, this is just my small space for personal reminders and a to-do list. feel free to ignore if you like. they're in no particular order.

• journal set for nicki-san (manga trade) [inking!]
• manga trade picture for keggo [inking!]
• couple picture for snits [sketching]
• anime south chibi [coloring!]
• <s>scan fanime assignment for 10/14</s>
• finish more animal crossing stickers, start other sets

• ouran host club - volume 9+
