Commission for Kur0, who is collecting a series of really cool images from other artists with her character! In real life she is a zookeeper, so each image is of her character caring for a different kind if animal. Recently she was involved in the care of a baby bat named Noah, a story which captured my heart. I have a huge soft spot for bats, but getting to see the pictures of little Noah all swaddled and being fed was just cute overload for me! So my contribution to her zookeeper series had to involve bats of course. =)
