About the Project £
Sketchy Whiskers began in March 2023 with simple drawings and quiet animations. I used to set them to fun, trendy songs about friendship and the little moments between a cat and a bunny. It was playful, lighthearted, something I created just for the joy of it.Then life pulled me away. I stopped drawing. A year passed. And another.I came back on April 20, 2025, a little different. A little heavier. A little softer.The stories had changed. They became slower, quieter, more tender. They started holding things I hadn’t known how to say before. Soft emotions. Lingering thoughts. The kind of heaviness that stays with you even when the world keeps moving.Sketchy Whiskers became a place to hold all of that. Not just the stories between Brother Meow and Bunny, but something more personal. It became a reflection of the quiet relationship I have with myself, the calm and the overthinking, the steady and the soft, the part of me that listens and the part that breaks quietly in private.I used to think I was Brother Meow, quiet, grounded, observing everything from the edges. But I’m Bunny too. Emotional. Tender. Always trying to make sense of what I feel. Sometimes they argue. Sometimes they just sit beside each other. I think both are true.All our cats are rescues. Lost, abandoned, forgotten. Some were left on the roadside. Some just wandered into our lives and never left. I see myself in them sometimes. The way they stay cautious, the way they slowly start to trust again. The way they still show up at the door, hoping someone will choose them. There’s something deeply human about that. About being hurt, but still wanting to be held.This project became more than just art. It became a quiet drawer for feelings I didn’t have words for. A place where softness could live without needing to be explained.If you’ve found comfort here, even just once, thank you. For being here. For seeing it. Even silently. Even now. That means something. 🌿

Bunny ♤
A sensitive soul with open eyes
Bunny is tender in a way that never asks for attention. She feels things deeply, notices what others miss, and often carries more than she lets on. She grew up learning to be small to keep the peace and quiet to avoid the sting of being wrong. Over time she became good at giving without being asked and apologizing before anything went wrong, not because she was fragile but because she learned early that gentleness was safest when it stayed out of the way.She loves to draw, not for praise but for comfort. Her notebooks are filled with half-finished sketches and quiet worlds she escapes into when the real one feels too sharp. She reads slowly, lingering on sentences that make her feel understood. She is tone-deaf and sings anyway. Loudly. Happily. Especially when no one is around. She always has a snack nearby, usually something warm and sweet, and she gives it away without hesitation even when she needs comfort too.Bunny does not try to be strong in the way the world often defines it. Her strength is quieter, more internal. She knows how to sit with someone who is hurting without reaching for a solution. She listens the way most people wish to be heard. She forgives easily but never forgets how things made her feel.She is a central thread in Sketchy Whiskers. She does not need the spotlight, but her presence is felt in every soft word and still drawing. Bunny reminds us that you do not have to be loud to be full of love, and you do not have to be perfect to be worthy of rest.

Brother Meow †
A quiet heart with steady paws
Brother Meow is the stillness in the story. He is calm and observant, the kind of cat who notices before he speaks and only speaks when it truly matters. He carries a softness that was not always safe to show, shaped by early silence and the quiet weight of trying to be good without asking for much.He makes tea the way some people light candles or say small prayers. He sings sometimes too, gently and without show, usually when he thinks no one is listening. He keeps his thoughts in old notebooks, not to be read but to be released. His presence is slow and steady, not because he is unsure, but because he chooses to move with care.He does not try to fix what hurts. He simply stays. And in a world that often rushes past what is tender, that kind of presence is its own kind of healing.Brother Meow is one of the quiet voices behind Sketchy Whiskers. He does not need to be the center, but when he speaks, it matters. He reminds us that stillness is not emptiness, and that sometimes the softest ones are carrying the most.
