Cats 'n' Briefs - Christmas Day (2023) (Patreon)

A poem we made for the picture at hand...

"On the eve of Christmas, there lies within the sprawling city, a household filled to the brim with cats galore

These folks, all of them distinct and defined, and some of them with packages to adore

All of them packed into the living room, standing or sat upon the hardwood floor

With the stockings hanging above the mantle place, the names of these denizens lay

From Eddie & Tidbits, to Mateo & Bombo, to Lerrel & Asliere, a marvelous set of names to display

Each with their own story, all of them ready to speak it on this wonderful Christmas day

But would it be inopportune to mention that they are all quite a bit gay?

A present, from father to son, given in a beautifully wrapped box

Exclaimed the son, "Papi, you're as hard as a rock!"

The father, flushed from the statement, retorted, “It’s my present to you, hijo that I oh-so love.”

Eddie perked up, and went in for a deep hug, receiving pats to the head from above

Meanwhile, cookies from the chef, given or passed to each and everyone

To all the smiling faces, nomming delicious wafers 'til it's done

Except for the poor lynx, pulled by his leash & restrained by his collar,

As his dragon handler corrects him: "Not until after supper.”

And in the corner, tiger and cat snuggled by the Christmas tree

Whispering in the ear of the Siamese, "It's so nice to have you all up on me."

The Siamese, looking back at the larger figure

Snuggled up closer, his heart feeling much bigger

On this Christmas Eve, let it be known this;

That Cats 'n' Briefs will spend this night full of singing, warmth, and bliss

Filled with love and caring and, of course, a kiss

The feelings of today, all of them, will be something to reminisce."

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of our Cats 'n' Briefs aficionados!

We're apologizing for the last time of the year for a somewhat poor month...but we had an absolute wreck of a month dealing with a lot of complications (Oiruse caught COVID during the middle of it 😟) but we managed to pull through and finish this for you guys! We're sorry if it feels a bit rushed, but we wanted to have something done in time for you guys!

We hope you enjoy, and yes we want to draw more of these guys soon! We've built quite a portfolio of characters since we started Cats 'n' Briefs, and we want to explore more of the ones we made! We're excited for what the New Year is going to bring us, and while we're a bit scared (lots of new things, getting older, our birthdays 😵) we want to try renewing ourselves by trying some new things and step away from the old. One of the biggest things we want to do more is ANIMATIONS. We'll see how things pan out!

Thank you guys as always, and we love you very much! Thank you for sticking by us in this tough month and year! 🐱🩲
