Hello my lovelies! Where are you from and do you love cats? :)

[shamvandamn]

Ahoy there! My name is Shameema Dharsey, I'm an illustrator from Cape Town, South Africa and I'm relatively new to Tapastic.
I'd love to hear from all the creators and subscribers out there and find out who in the wide world are the people who form Tapastic
I'd also LOVE to see your cat! Post pics of your lovelies!

Oh, and my comic is http://tapastic.com/series/The-Cat-Lady

Hi, Shameema! Nice to meet you! I'm Anna, and I'm from Sweden - and yes, I do love cats! I have two - one grumpy old striped cat, and one little fluffy dark-grey one named Moses. He looks like this:

He likes to "help" me make comics by taking naps on my hands while I draw.

[shamvandamn]

Hey hey Anna! Nice to meet you too! Moses reminds me of one of mine, Fluffy. Loves giving The Death Stare I had three, but alas one died, and now I have two. I love them to bits! let me find a pic for you....

fluffy is the tabby, and Wobbles is the black and white one.

And they help me in the same way! They love sleeping on scamps ad roughs. Such helpful creatures What do you do in the during the days? (if you don't mind me asking)

[AnnaLandin]

I don't mind at all! I'm a professional illustrator and comic artist too, actually. Right now, I'm between jobs, but I'm always looking for new ones; I've worked on illustrating textbooks for schools, I've done some illustration-work for games, etc., and I've had a few short comics published.

Hi Shameema, welcome to Tapastic! I'm Yvette and I'm also from Sweden

I love love love cats so much, but I don't have one Maybe one day, we'll see.

I work as a full time illustrator/comic artist, mostly I do workshops in drawing for kids, but I also do illustrations for magazines and educational purposes and I publish my own comics in print and on the web.

Your comic is cute! How do you make it? Pencil only?

Hi Shameema, I like cats but I'm allergic to them. I used to hate cats but one day an orange and white cat randomly came up to me and started rubbing against me so I pet it and it was really nice. I used to think all cats are just assholes. Then from that day I liked cats, especially orange and white ones.

[shamvandamn]

Me too! I do mostly textbook illustrations currently, but I'd love to do more kids story books and other kinds of illustration. Things are quiet on the job front my side -_- Sometimes its a seasonal thing.

[shamvandamn]

One day! One day you will find your Cat of Destttttinyeeee!
Nice to meet you Yvette tips hat

The first part of my comics (the Cat Lady), I did with pencil and then some fiddling in Photoshop. The second comic was purely digital with a combination of photoshop and Manga studio. So so glad you liked it! <3

[shamvandamn]

Noooo, winglessone! Cats HaVE assholes...they aren't assholes And ginger and white ones are wayeee purdy

[TristanJensen]

Nice to meet you

[shamvandamn]

Hey Tristan! Tipps and Sabrina sounds too cute! Lovely to meet you too

[WintreKitty]

Hi Shameema! Lovely post idea

I am from Canada, and I adore cats! I have one family cat named Tammy. She is now 14 years old and still going strong. She isn't much of a people-cat, and she decides when and where she wants to be pet (don't even think about picking her up!). I'm hoping to adopt a cat when I move away from home in September.

Nice to meet you!

[SpavVy]

I love cats but I am allergic to them unfortunately, my eyes get itchy and wattery if they get too close to my face and sometimes I get what appears to be hives from them ;( it sucks.

[AlkseeyaKC]

Hello! I'm KC! I draw the comic NEON GLOW and I love kitties! =D
Here is mine, her name is Malla!




She is a crazy nut. <3

[shamvandamn]

@WintreKitty Lovely to meet you WintreKitty! I have a cousin who lives in Canada with his family. It sure gets cold there! Also, one of my fave actors, Nathan Fillion, happens to be Canadian. Sigh. So dreamy! Great to hear about Tammy, and good luck with adopting your own furbaby!

@Savannah awwwww. Sorry to hear about your allergies. I might be completely remembering correctly, but aren't there some cats that don't set off allergies? I know you get the hairless ones called Sphinx's. Hmmmm, I should research

@AlkseeyaKC Hey KC! Nice to meet you! Malla is adooooorbs!!!

[Zannen00]

Hullo Shameema! I'm Zannen, all the way from Malaysia!

I have cats...lots of em!

Here's 2 that's sleeping outside my room, If your interested I can take a group photo of all the kitties...if they manage to stay still in one place long enough.

And Hope you will enjoy your stay in Tapastic!

[SpavVy]

Yeah it does but it won't stop me from getting a cat in the future I'll probably just take allergy meds. I'd like to have a Savannah cat, their really pretty. I don't have a cat but I have two mischievous ferrets.

[shamvandamn]

@Zannen00 awwwwww! So cute! I love their little star blankie! It would be great to see a group pic. And how is Malaysia? I have some ancestors there I'm sure

@Savannah ooh, i've never heard of a savannah cat. To the Research Mobile!
