New Art "Steampunk Valentine", New Zazzle Items & Sales, Upcoming Appearance @ MegaCon

My first update of the New Year! Where to begin?, I have had a very rocky start to my new year. The short version, First my computer fried New Years Day. I spent the next few weeks getting a new computer built and all set up so I could get back to work. Next, a few more business setbacks and finally, I'm now back to work! Worst of all we had to say goodbye to my kitty Leo. We didn't even know he was sick and there was nothing we could do. Leo passed away on January 23rd and we miss him very much. I have updated his page on my website with my journal post about his illness and passing. His page will remain on my site as a Memorial to Captain Leo. Here's Leo's Page.

On to happier news, I have lots to share tonight, a New Painting, Lots of New Zazzle items & Sales and an upcoming appearance! ......

"Steampunk Valentine ~ The Key To My Heart."

Approximately 8" x 10" Original Acrylic and Ink on Bristol Paper

The next painting in my Cat Nips collection. A chubby little calico steampunk cat wearing her Victorian heart locket. In her hand a skeleton key, she's giving you the key to her heart. This painting is very different from all of my others. This painting has burnt edges to give it an old vintage look. The white border shown is only for the online photo. That is why the size is listed as approximately 8 x 10 because the burnt edges made it slightly smaller.

My Kitties!

After what happened with Leo we decided to take Zoe & Tabby and get them full senior cat checkups. We went to the new vet my mom has been using because she is really good. She checked them all over and took blood and urine for testing. The lab work came back on both of them. Turns out Tabby has Hyperthyroidism and I have started her on meds for that. I hope she responds well to the meds. *fingers crossed* Zoe, as many of you know has what we thought were chronic UTI problems and has been on meds for that for years. The meds she was put on by our previous vet were a type of steroid that have caused Zoe to gain a lot of weight. Not good because she could develop Diabetes. So our new vet is suggesting we wean Zoe off of her meds and try some diet changes to canned food and more water in her diet. She thinks the UTIs are not UTIs but really Interstitial Cystitis which she believes can be treated with just diet change and more water. Hopefully that is the case *fingers crossed* Overall they are very healthy and the rest of their blood work and labs looked great. So I'm very happy about that. Yes, my pets have more health issuesand are more meds than my whole family combined LOL! I love my furbabies!! I need them to be well!
