Kitten Update: The Kittening

margaret hogg

Oh man I pledged expecting some sketches and process stuff but you didn't say there were KITTENS IN HERE TOO <3 <3 <3

Tracy Butler

Thank you very much!

Garrett Simpson

Aw!

Bonnie Schnabel

man, I have been watching you for some time on Deviantart, and I'm really excited to see you here on Patreon. Your work is beautiful. <3

Tracy Butler

I hope so! =)

Tracy Butler

Ah, wow. That's quite the problem. I haven't had issues with UTIs in my cats since I've lived in Missouri...at least not yet. I'm not sure if it has to do with the decent tap quality or just sheer luck.. I'll keep it in mind as a possible source of trouble, though.

Tracy Butler

Yes - they really were sleeping like that, but only because Maya snuggled up to him after he was already asleep. He wouldn't have been terribly keen on the idea otherwise. ;)

Tracy Butler

Maya makes 5. I think 3 would be a much more ideal number, at least in terms of veterinary expense - heh - but it is what it is, and I love them all (Calvin, Sebastian, Gigi, Luca and Maya). Mitzi was a cat I had during my childhood and, sadly, Ivy passed away last year.

Woodchi

really great to see Maya doing well, sounds very cool. awesomely done!

Minna Mäkinen

Awwww cuteness overload :) This just made my morning so much better. Thank you.

I hit enter for a new paragraph and it posted, but I also wanted to say: Thank you. There are days when your art just makes everything better again.

Imma die from the CUTE! Just a note, we had a lot of trouble with urinary track problems with our cats until we found out the god awful hard tap water was doing them in. We started with bottled and switched to filtered and not a problem since, much longer lived cats over the past decades.

Goodyear

Ungh, too sweet for words! I'm so happy to hear that she's survived and is thriving in your care. That's wonderful news, and she's just the cutest little thing :)

Caity Walker

She's so cuuuuuute! I love the video of her jumping around!

SmGFL

It's amazing how well she's doing! She's freakin adorable. Wow. She'll be happy she ended up with such a great owner.

Ragnar Drayke

Can't tell you how glad I am that you were able to save her. I'm sure she'll be a very big part of your life for a very long time. :)

Shannon Mora Sanders

I'm so glad that she made it! You are such a kind kitty owner.

Maklarr4000

She is so CUTE! Mad props to you Ms. Butler, awesome to hear that she's doing great!

Leigh Legler

Haha! It's absolutely lovely! (Maya the 3D modeling cat did make me chokelaugh on my coffee though)

Jess Fink

OMG. Precious angel!! I call my cat a bean too ;_;

Jessica Dowell

What is it with kittens and sitting on our technology? They really know how to get our attention!

Alex

Oh my, what a floopish boopish hoppish boppish wiggly squiggly buddle of beans she is. Maya is a wonderful name for your little jellybean. Thank you for updating us on her progress!

Tracy Butler

Maya Angelou, Maya Rudolph, Maya the Bee, Maya the 3D modeling software...hehe, any number of Mayas. I just thought the name was the right combination of cute and feisty for her. =)

Tracy Butler

She has her SNAP test coming up tomorrow, and as long as she comes up negative for FeLV and FIV, I'll plan on keeping her here. I'd have a hard time parting with her at this point, anyway. =)

Leigh Legler

Aww! I've been waiting to hear how she's doing! Is she Maya after Maya Angelou, or just because the name is pretty?

Ella Kingstone

Oh Tracy, she's so beautiful! I'm so happy to hear she is doing well, and I loved watching the video <3 will you be keeping her now then? <3
