I am really stressed.

Tu, my beloved 8 year old born-blind cat went in for her annual health exam. She’s generally healthy an happy, but to everyone’s shock she produced blood in her urine when the Vet was checking her organs. She showed no signs of pain or anything that led up to this point, so then we all became immediately concerned because of how much blood was in her urin (too much to be a simple urinary tract infection).

An xray revealed two rather large stone in her bladder, about a ¼" in diameter each, that required surgery ASAP. By the next morning, she went into surgery and came out later that afternoon.

Bladder stones are most commonly caused by an all-dry food diet; she would hardly eat can food.

Tu’s surgery cost a whopping $1400 that I really don’t have, as it had to go on a credit card.It was a rocky start to get her to eat any can food, but she eventually caved and is eating it, along with a few pebbles throughout the day of dry food. Unfortunately, she has to be on prescription diet can and dry food from the Vet from now on. Here is yet another expense I did not expect.

So I have decided to open up for Pet Portrait commissions to cover these expenses.

2"x2" mini canvas with easel - $20

4"x4" mini canvas panel with easel - $35

All paintings will be done with Acrylics. I will also be recording the process of each portrait and post them for viewing pleasure.
