My cat Theo has rather become my constant companion. I am a one cat Crazy Cat Lady. A few weeks ago he was struck down with diabetic ketoacidosis and I found myself standing in a vet's office while trained professionals waited for me to tell them whether or not they should try to save him. (Spoiler Alert: He's fine now)

In a real way I draw comics and blogs to keep track of my life for myself. My memory is poor and I find myself forgetting things that I don't write down. And it's a bit of a joke but because any comic I draw lags so far behind my real life it always seems like just like I'm putting someone into a comic... they're leaving my life. So it suddenly spilled over me in a heat of terrified anxiety that I had never put Theo in my comic and now he might be dying.

As soon as I was allowed to bring him home from hospitalization, I started drawing this.
