Tiktok sick pet scam

Hey y'all i recently found out about this scam on tiktok and its making me so angry - this person is using photos of an injured cat claiming they need money for vet bills but.. the photos are on over 100 accts with slight variations to the name, the name/age of the cat changes randomly (she's 3, no now she's 5! she's lily.. no.. she's named mama now), the day of the injury changes (she was attacked july 1st... july 22nd... august 4... whatever is most recent) and they are using 3 or more different venmo's and then deleting them as they go. its stealing from good hearted ppl who want to help a sick cat. PLEASE tell people about this and don't let your family or friends be scammed.

I've been getting into other types of art/crafting and I thought to myself wouldn't it be fun to have an Alan Wake coloring project? And I couldn't find any online so I decided to make my own :3 I went a lil crazy and made Alan, Scratch, Rose, Saga and Casey pages that will keep me occupied for a while :3 Here's Alan!!

If you want your own pages I've got them on my ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/s/2ab5876e5f

If you get them I hope you have fun coloring!!

Yes, Daniel Powell. If you leave this outpost, I will come with you.

I don't remember if I've already posted this? But here it is again anyway :3 An older drawing of Rat and Dan ft my old imagining of what Dan looks like (he needs two arms!) But I just love how weird Rat looks!! In my latest drawings of them I also imagine LMG just gives them crappy swag shirts to wear or scrap from the city/contractors that didn't make it so Rat's cool shirt is probably unrealistic lol
