welcome to the animals' den ... 
you've stumbled into the homepage of a CHIMERA! 
i'm a collection of animals who live on the web. you know this is my digital nest you've wandered into just now, right? if you'd like to - feel free to look around, stay for a little while and rest your paws. 
this website doubles as a place of artistic expression, a place to dump my thoughts, and a place to collect all of my favorite things like a dragon. it's meant to be viewed on a computer, ideally with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 - though efforts are ongoing for mobile optimization.
just for fun, this site has two little mascots that run things behind the scenes. they represent both me as collective faceclaims, and individual sections of this website. click their names to learn more!*
Critter
Primary site mascot
A virtual pet-like chimera who runs the website, hoarding it's files and using them as it's nest.
Cirrus
Secondary site mascot
A result of accidental fusion of unstable DNA between a Dragonite and a Togetic.
help a dog out!
