Ever since lassie passed I keep seeing this image in my head. I don’t posses the art skills to make it the exact way I see it but I think I got it as close as possible.
For anyone who didn’t see my post Lassie passed away on May 1st this year. Dispute all of the hell that little as***le put me through with trash eating, not using the litter box and just other nonsense; I couldn’t have asked for a better cat at the end of the day. She was the most cuddly sweetest cat (to me and basically only me) with the biggest personality.
It never mattered where we were as long as we were together we were home. She taught me so many things I would’ve never expected a cat to teach me. She taught me patience in my anger (cause I mean seriously how many times do I need to tape a trash can down before you stop messing with it). She taught me to laugh even when I’m bawling my eyes out because she made a stupid little face. She taught me what love truly is, because even after all the confusion, the bladder problems with no answers, and the late nights she was always who I came home to.
I wish I had more answers about what happened but lassie was 16 years old and lost control of her bladder, she was confused and couldn’t remember people she had loved. At the end of the week it finally felt like she was ready. She passed surrounded by love from so many people who grew to love her (even if she hated them).

This is a *very* condensed version, but it tells a bit more of my story of learning to actually work with leather. If you wanna read all 30~ pictures you can find them on my TikTok!

Thank you to everyone who’s been with me through it all and everyone who’s still riding this with me 💙
