Inktober Day 11: Cruel
Oh, how our pets suffer!
If dressing your pet up in ridiculous clothes isn’t cruel then I don’t know what is! I actually have not had the privilege of dressing up any of my fur babies but I might consider doing it if we ever got a sphinx cat. I’d dress it up in a large purple sweater and bring it with me to @caffetto everyday to keep me company. I’d probably cry from happiness if I got a new kitten but @kommienezuspadt says that Mr. Snake could possibly eat it if he ever got loose. So...for now it’s out of the question but I’m still hopeful.
The progress...
Here’s the outline sketch that I started with. It looks really funny, especially the eyes. Like some sort of alien.
I decided to get started with the inking and began to draw in the wrinkles tot he face. I did make some adjustments to the size of the head and the shape of the ears.
I colored in the eyes to ensure that I was getting the grumpy look down. It seems like I nailed it!
Next, I inked in the feet. Slightly adjusting the directions of the pads so it holds the right posture.
An extravagant coat for our hairless feline.
Finished with shading and highlights. :)
Super nice work!

Thank you! ^^
Hahahaha, her expression talks thousand languages :)))
I laugh every time I see this! I love drawing grumpy creatures! 😆
That cat is not pleased at all.... NOT PLEASED AT ALL.
XD
Nice drawing for the theme 'cruel', foxxie :).
Not one bit! I’m almost positive that this will be the fate of my future pets and I don’t feel bad at all!
I absolutely adore that cranky expression! Dressing up pets does seem pretty cruel but I reckon I could almost do it just for that face XD

YES! It’s the same reasoning for dressing up children in ridiculous Halloween costumes when they’re still babies!
This made me smile!
I used to want one of these naked sphinx cats as I thought they'd be the perfect companion to my Italian Greyhounds we used to have. But, alas , our last sweet IG Sophie passed last year and we are down to one ancient and shaky lil 4 lb chihuahua. Who knows what animals there may be in my future?
I used to have sweaters for our dogs, but they never really liked them, though Sophie liked her down coat when she had to have her daily walk when we lived in Boston, but once inside she'd wiggle until it was off!
Sorry for you loss. I love Greyhounds. I’d love to have any variation of the breed but my sweetheart only loves pugs and all things with wrinkles.
Maybe if I can get the animal used to wearing clothes at a young age then they won’t wiggle out of it. @lonniedi has put her pup in a raincoat and boots. It’s the best!
Gorgeous! I love the finely detailed wrinkles on this sphinx cat, so so so so much ! And yes, dressing up pets is a bit cruel on their expense but it is.... also hilarious XD;;;;;
Love this one so much, foxie <3 You're always amazing with how you choose to interpret the theme words <3 <3 <3
Omgosh...you’re right! I did once buy a Santa outfit for someone’s cat and it was very expensive. Maybe if I ever decided to dress up a pet then I’d make the clothes myself.
I’m kinda stuck on the ‘clock’ theme...I have an idea but I haven’t committed to it yet.

oh that's cruel
If that is uncomfortable, some may see them very cuchi but do not think that maybe they do not like them!
He has the face of not liking anything.
Kommazis says he will eat it?
I do not think that is possible, but convince him little by little that you can surely have it!
I love the details of the drawing!
Thanks @yanes94! Our pet snake 🐍could definitely eat a kitten if we weren’t careful. 😔 It’s almost as tall as I am so I understand why he’d be worried for any future pets.
Oh I did not know it was a snake, in that case.
I give reason to him.
I have some fear of the snake.
I respect them a lot but by far it's better
Having another pet can be risky for her.
