As you might have read from my last journal, my cat got a tumor I'm here to update to what happened and when commission work will continue again.

First and foremost commission work will be continued very soon. My hopes are next week but I might need a couple more days (reasons below), fingers crossed.
I will have more updates for special weekend speedpaint offers in a couple of days with another journal so keep your eyes peeled.

Now to the other stuff, I wanted to open everything up way earlier but a lot of unexpected things happened. The move takes longer than expected, we had internet troubles which still need to be worked out. I currently just have a makeshift setup so I can start to work on commissions again.
As to my cat, she sadly passed away a little over a week ago. I'm very grateful for the extra month I had with her. It was a heartbreaking decision to make but I did everything I could so she can have the best last month in her live. She got to live 10 yeas by my side.
But I also had to say goodbye to another very beloved pet. Our elderly family dog of almost 12 years had shortly after my cats passing a seizure .. some stuff collapsing in his throat making breathing impossible. While he eventually managed to breath again, the vet said if it ever happens again it's better to also put him to his final rest. Two days ago he had the same seizure again, he was barely able to walk and wasn't even mentally present anymore (similar to my cat once the time had come). His companion dog (also roughly 12 years old) is now alone again, the second time he looses a dog friend. He is taking it alright and luckily the weather here in Germany is getting better so we can take him outside for longer times and keep his brain busy.
I am still heartbroken to lose two very beloved animals so shortly after another and combined with the stress of moving it's nothing I would wish anyone.
