Hey friends, I unfortunately have some very sad news.


My wonderful little familiar and executive producer, Tiger, passed away around the end of June after nearly 17 years of love and companionship <3
I’m sorry I didn’t let you all know earlier, but I wanted some time to mourn privately before sharing this with my audience because it definitely hit me hard. It wasn’t a total surprise thankfully, I knew her health was declining due to old age and some liver problems, and I got much longer with her than the vet estimated when she had a pretty bad health scare back in January. The cat distribution system brought me my little furbaby in a parking lot when I was only 10 years old, and I developed a very deep bond with her over the years. It’s been so weird not having her around as I work on projects and go about my day, but I also count myself extraordinarily lucky for the time I got with her. I was home schooled for most of my early education, I attended college during the pandemic so my classes were mostly online, and now I work from home, so I got to spend about as much time with my girl someone can spend with a pet, and I’m very very thankful for that.
I deeply miss Tiger and I know the channel won’t feel the same without her inspecting my projects and knocking things off shelves, but I feel like she really lives on in the legacy of my silly art channel.

I’m planning on doing a memorial video and project for her as soon as I’m able to talk about her on camera without crying lol Her passing caused my brother and I to go through some old family VHS tapes from when we were kids to digitize the footage, and there’s SO much more Tiger footage on there than I remember recording. We’re talking hours and hours of two home-schooled dorks on summer break with nothing better to do than record their diva cat. I’d love to share some of that footage with y’all in the memorial video. It’s so funny to me that Tiger was destined to be a YouTube cat from the day we adopted her (10 year old Kira was a diva too, oh boy).

Again, not sure when that video will come out, but hopefully by the end of the year. For now, go love on your pets and human loved ones. Give your friends and family a hug, tell them you appreciate them. Give your furbabies boops, cuddles, and extra treats. They deserve It <3



I also included some famous Tiger photos for your viewing pleasure 💖
For context:
Photo 1: Just hanging out on the porch looking absolutely adorable
Photo 2: We’re judging you
Photo 3: Beware of cat ft. a little tongue blep
Photo 4: A VERY early Tiger photoshoot (I was probably 11) where we sat her in front of one of my grandmother’s paintings
Photo 5: 10 yr old Kira and a freshly adopted baby Tiger (she did not love being man handled but she tolerated it from me and me only)

As someone who's had many fur babies throughout the years, I know just how much they become family. I'm so sorry for your loss, but I know she was loved dearly- and I have no doubt she loved you right back ❤️

Tiger is the best cat assistant you could ever ask for. I know it's hard losing a pet. Like, my mom's boyfriend lost his two dogs Pua and Ellie due to some lung problems. But they both have a special place in our hearts. I hope Tiger has that special place in yours, too. We will miss her. And she's very lucky to have you as her owner.

Losing a pet is so difficult. Whenever my pets have passed the feeling of an empty house or room really punctuates how much they mean to us. My family dog passed around 5 years ago now and every once in a while I still think I’ll see her when I come home. Pets are so important in our lives and all the people who love their animals experience intense loss but also so many years of fun, joy, and support from their pets.

I understand your grief. Just lost my dog of 23 years this summer too (had her for 19). Take as much time as you need to heal and grieve. We will miss our beloved executive producer. Hopefully she is happy wherever you imagine she is now ❤️💕

Loosing a pet is one of the worst feelings ever, I’m so sorry for your loss. Don’t feel pressured to put out content if you need extra time to mourn, and take care of yourself <3

17 years is an astounding age for a cat and from what we have seen and heard she was a cat that was loved as deeply as anyone could hope to be ❤️ I am so sorry you have to go through the loss of your fur baby and do not worry about getting the video out (or any video out) for that matter. Focus on yourself and the ones closest until you feel comfortable sharing however much you want ❤️

Sending my deepest condolences. Tiger was so loved for her whole life and that's really the best that we can do for our pets. I'm sure she felt that love all throughout.
