TW/CW: Death / Animal Death My best friend died. As you may have noticed, my dog lost her battle against her tumor last month. The dog that inspired so many of my comics and was always by my side. This is the most painful piece, but it was therapeutic in a way to say goodbye to Trixi in this way. Goodbye my “curly banana”, you were loved so so much…

Senior pets have a hard time getting adopted. The likelihood of adoption is only 25% compared to 60% for a younger dog. Unfortunately, this is often due to prejudice. I want to raise awareness with this comic (and also get back to my roots, which I haven't really managed to do yet). But I want to start uploading more regularly again. Thank you for your patience so far.

People have asked for more interactions between Life and Death. Life is bringing so much color into my comics haha <3
Who was it who said that grief is love with nowhere to go
“Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go.”

why does he keep dying are we trying to foreshadow something why do we have so many images of his corpse.

I THOUGHT I WAS DONE BEING HURT BY THIS BUT NOPE. I WAS WRONG.
the idea behind a grim (a big friendly ghost dog) is that because the first soul buried in a burial yard would be its guardian they would bury a Very Good Boy there first so a human wouldn’t be stuck at the gate so to speak. so in that way Laika is continuing an ancient tradition of a guardian spirit protecting the souls of everyone who passes after her.

I have been chipping away at this since issue #50 dropped. I felt like this quote was kind of fitting. (Sorry Starline ;w;)
