Moon π€ππΎ
I worked on Moon for a dear friend on the east coast. We had originally agreed on a "round" pelt (just his body area, not his face or tail) but I asked permission to try out his FULL pelt, and the worst that would happen, they would get his round pelt, best case, he would be complete. He was such a beautiful kitty β€οΈ He just arrived home today π€
They are going to articulate Moon on their end, so I separated all of the bones to make things easier, and have been giving them tips on how to go about it. I also worked on Moon's heart, whiskers, and paw prints in ink and clay.
Ty sent me a picture today of their pup, Owen laying down beside the box I shipped as it was dropped of on their porch. I instantly burst into tears seeing Owen knew his buddy was back home.
I absolutely love what I do, and it gives me immense joy and purpose to help grieving pet parents. Yes, it is a job, but the internal rewards I get has given me so much purpose, and fuels my sobriety. Thank you Ty for trusting me with your sweetheart π
