the ham you guys have already met, Q, the one hanging out in my sig for a while now... scroll down for sumptuous cuteness of Q licking my finger, being flat, and just being super tame. And yep she's a sapphire winter white, good job Pansycat2 who guessed it!






I adopted her from the SPCA this year, and she's just been the most delightful hamster in the world. Then, I was NOT planning on adopting any other animals at all, but when I went to buy hamster supplies in a shop I met eyes with this saddest, most soulful looking pup. I had no idea it was a corgi, as the ears were all droopy. We had to bring him home; he'd grown out of his puppy stage and his ears didn't show promise as a 'proper corgi'.

He's now a beloved family pet that loves rides in bicycles, smiling, and people!





His name is Zuki! At the time that I drew my staff pup, Zuki would only have one ear up (always the same ear), sometimes. Now both his ears are up, probably because he's finally getting enough calcium! My mom loves to play fetch while dressing him in my dad's clothes (idk). She sent me this video...



She's laughing hysterically in the background.

I feel super lucky to meet these two wonderful little souls this year, and wanted to share with you guys. Usually prefer to draw fantasy things, but sometimes real life is better.

Your pets are both insanely adorable oh my god.
Your dog is particularly precious; it's no surprise why you took that cutie home ahhhh <3

It's honestly really awesome that you included both of your pets in your staff pup-- it's stuff like this that makes me really look forward to this litter every year.

[Obius]

I think I will quietly melt from all the cuteness overload. Well done Sketchi. Seeing these two in real life just made your outcome is that much more awesome!

Now look what you've done! Now I want a real corgi too!

@Sketchi
Both Q and Zuki are adorable! Thanks for sharing their cuteness with us! Corgis are amazingly sweet, lovable little bundles and I'm glad you were able to give Zuki a great home.

Is no one going to talk about this outcome?? It's absolutely GORGEOUS!

I'm quite partial to this little leaflette pup.
Fall is my favourite season, so she speaks to me on a spiritual level.
Lol

Afternoon, all! Forgive me for not being as up-to-date as I’d like to be. I just have a bit of a question about a few hints. I think the whole pixelated thing with Raire’s might have to do with the “rough” part, but otherwise, I’m still quite confused.

Could someone explain the “warm soft, cold rough” thing for me?

Sure! :3

Warm/soft refers to Jayfrosts pup being very fluffy and therefore very warm. A nice cuddle buddy.

Rough indeed refers to pixel art, while cold actually refers to the markings: night sky with stars and dawn or dusk (your choice) on the tail, it is usually cold(er) then. c;

@sketchi

[strangetales]
