The Pandemic Pet Project Approaches the Finish Line

 As of today, I've drawn 900 pets for people over a 225-day period as part of the Pandemic Pet Project, something I started back in April to retain my sanity during all of this confusion and anxiety. 
To come up with a nice round number, I decided a few months back that my goal would be 1,000 pets total.  

So, I have 100 left and that's why I am writing this post. 

The PPP worked better than I could ever imagine, but it has gone much longer than I anticipated. I thought the pandemic would be done by now, but boy--was I wrong. 

I figured that I would draw maybe 100 pets mostly for my friends, but boy--was I wrong. 

I thought I'd only hear from people in California primarily, but boy--was I wrong. To date, I've drawn pets for folks in 32 states and 11 countries. 

So, if you haven't sent me photos of your pets yet, now would be the ideal time. (Also, be sure to message me your mailing address.) 

If you were thinking of telling your friends about the project, now is also a good time. Because on December 29th, the project will be over and I'll have to start something else to draw. 

It's been a great journey and I appreciate everyone who donated to the pet rescue of their choice by participating in the PPP.
