ALT Selfie taken with me and "Uncle" Scruffy the hyena at the Milwaukee County Zoo in 2024. Scruffy was a 25 year old male hyena who passed just a few days before his 26th birthday. In the image, Scruffy can be seen lying down as he just awoke from a long nap. My likeness is blocked out by a blurry image of rapper Yeat. Both Yeat and Scruffy are reasons why I didn't off myself two years ago when I had every right to, and I owe it all to them. If you want to learn more about Scruffy, I have a whole thread dedicated to him made on the anniversary of his death. Love you and miss you every day, Uncle! (1/8/1999-1/3/2025)

ALT Image of my beautiful cat and wonderful son, Petey Pablo (or Petey or Pete or Sly). Petey is a 3 (soon to be 4!) year old male tuxedo cat born in May 2022. In the image, he is sitting by the window in our living room and looking up at me, appearing to want to go outside. Pete is actually my first ever pet I've owned, and I couldn't have picked a better animal to give this noble distinction to. Here's to so many more days, weeks, months, and years of never-ending fun around the sun each and every day!
