The Warmth of the Sun

☆Eng:

I drew Kim in the form of a cat. I think he would be an oriental cat (based on appearance).

☆Рус:

Нарисовала Кима в виде кота. Мне кажется он был бы ориентальным котом, если отталкиваться от внешности.

So cute cats 😭💕/Такие бубочки, я не могу 💗

E: I drew on paper using pens, marker and gouache, and then refined it in Krita.

Р: Изначально нарисовала на бумаге, используя ручки для штриховки, маркеры и гуашь для

Cat face study where I do NOT trace anything because I’ve learned that it actually doesn’t help that much and I was wrong . Also I’ve drawn long faced cats so much how do I still suck. These were surprisingly easy because I had refrences… idk why I didn’t just think to, oh I dunno, **use references when drawing characters**. Anyway kids uh just be super cool and be good at finding shapes in references (which is where tracing actually does come in handy, I take it back I am super smart)

IF Cassidy could turn into a cat he would be an oriental one it's canon.

The end of an Era

Yesterday morning, on the 27th of March 2024 my dear cat Neo passed away at an age of almost 17 years. He was the last of our Oriental cats and his passing marks the end of an era for me. Our first Oriental Longhair was Jayto, born November 27th 2003 who later got company of Nintu, a black Oriental Shorthair born August 26th 2006. Sadly, Jayto got sick and died at an age of only 3 years old, not long after Nintu came. Nintu needed another Oriental cat friend because our ‘regular’ cat Joey, who had been with us since early 1995, was not interested in Oriental cat style stickiness. And so Neo came;  a black Oriental Longhair born on May 9th 2007. Neo and Nintu have been best buddies for over 13 years. They played together, slept together and went on adventures together- including our family holidays. Their personalities were polar opposites and that made them such a good match.

When Nintu died on May 7th 2020 at an age of almost 14, Neo missed his buddy so much that we adopted Yuka, a red ‘regular’ cat. He gave Neo some proper distraction with his naughtiness - hence his nickname “Geboefte” , which means criminal in Dutch.

Neo was one of the loveliest, social and most easy going cats whom I’ve known. He was timid and careful but also the most talkative and intimate. Cuddles were almost always welcome and most led to roll and belly-rub session. He had the peculiar habit to do ‘stairs sticky’ as we called it: he stood on the first or 2nd floor while you had to stand a few steps lower on the stairs with your face was at his level and cuddle him.

We often gently joked about his funny look and mannerisms. He was exceptionally small (3.5 kg at max) for a tomcat, always had a bony butt, a pronounced sternum bone that stuck out and a lean but well filled ‘sack of organs’ along with a slightly kinked tail tip. Despite his small size, his paws were proportionally huge, which was not a desired trait for the breed - but I didn’t care; I love big paws. He had a very typical quiet, calm and elegant gait with small steps and an elevated head. Quite the opposite of Nintu’s big steps  and -always-in-a-rush- pace. Neo and the other Oriental cats have left us so many precious memories. These will always remain. 

Neo was also the last Feline with whom I had an intimate bond. Since I moved out of my parents’ house in 2012. I was not physically living with him anymore but I came back regularly and Neo was always there to be ‘sticky’ again. Until now. The next time I’m going back, he won’t be there anymore.

But his spirit stays

I don't know why but Vulture from the gray House always reminded me of oriental shorthair Cats:

I know they're incredibly silly-looking but i feel like, if He wasn't a Bird, he could be one of these (Also, they're my mom's favourite Cat)

Some of my early access Astarion art since I don't have any time to even play :') BTW, while his name translates like "loyal son", his surname looks like a developer's joke because it's very close to "curved fangs" :}
