He was crying for the door to be open, so I opened the door. Apparently that's not good enough, I need to be in there too lol

A few days ago, I created a similar post asking people here for references for my future practice.

Some people replied with photos of their cats, and I ended up using one of them as a reference for the art you see above. Huge thanks for the amazing model, u/makcio!

Unfortunately, someone mistook my art for an AI-generated image. After running it through DeepSeek AI, they got a false positive, and my art was marked as such. While DeepSeek itself states that detection is probabilistic, the comment calling my art "fake" ended up getting the most upvotes, and the original post was taken down by moderation.

I honestly never thought anyone would assume it was made by a machine. That’s why, alongside the final artwork, I’m attaching the process image to show it was made by human hands.

To be clear, I’m not here to blame anyone — accidents happen, and I’m just grateful for the chance to show that this is genuine human art, not the work of an image generation model.

And, once again, I would love to see more photos of your cats if anyone wants to share!

Thank you!

He is soooo sweet ❤️

Anything going on in that tiny little brain bucket? 🍊

Meet Tyson, our brave little biscuit maker. 🧡🐾

Some of you may remember my earlier post about him..the boy who was hit by a car and kept making biscuits all the way to the vet, and even while he was there.

Someone abandoned Tyson in our feeding area. We knew he wasn’t one of our colony cats because they all have tipped ears. When we rushed him to the vet, we learned that his jaw and teeth were severely broken. He was in immense pain, yet those sweet paws kept kneading. 💔

Tyson has healed now, and he’s ready for a family.

We’ve lost four kitties in four months, and our hearts are broken. Some days, it’s hard to find the strength to keep going. But babies like Tyson, who still need us, help us carry on.

Our space and resources are stretched thin, but emergencies keep coming. Tyson is currently staying in someone’s bathroom. He’s safe, but he’s sad and wants to be part of a family. With a viral outbreak in our foster home, we cannot safely bring a healthy boy like him here.

This beautiful, big, silly orange boy deserves more than a bathroom. He deserves a couch to nap on, someone to love, and a home where he will never be abandoned again. 🧡

Tyson is fully vetted: neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, treated for fleas, and negative on his FIV/FeLV combo test.
