I still don’t know what I’m doing with my art substack but I am very much enjoying it and somehow I have 9.9k subscribers, which is both shocking and weird. I also don’t know how you’re supposed to edit the preview image each week and that is why I think I just emailed 9.9k people what looks like a drawing of my cat’s butthole:

*sigh*
This is what you’re missing if you’re not subscribed. Also, I really need 100 more people to subscribe or 900 to unsubscribe because 9.9k feels like a weird number.
It’s totally free to subscribe but if you’re a paid subscriber you get access to extra posts and possibly weird gifts in the mail from me. Or if you don’t want to subscribe at all because you don’t want an email every week from me (no judgement, friend, especially after I just admitted to maybe sending cat buttholes) you can just go to the site and click on “”Let me see it first” at the bottom and you can see the full body drawing of my cat and not some weird p0rn preview that, again, I cannot apologize enough for.










I thought it was hilarious! And Hunter doesn’t give a cat butt about it! 😂
The b-hole was the best part. Always makes me giggle.
It made my day! There’s no better cure for taking everything too seriously than a cat’s butthole, that’s for sure.
Hahahahaha, rofl – well I mean they showed off one of his best features! I’m sure it’s fiiiine. 😆😄😊
I’m here for it.
I was happy to see that this morning. It made me titter.
I do love your blog, but substack just wasn’t my thing. I’m one of those people that tries to spend as little time on the internet as possible unless I absolutely love something and can’t go without it.
Like your blog…
But I hope you have more buddies who sign up!
You had my attention at cat butthole. I went right over and signed up. My cat Lucy shows me hers at every opportunity.
Absolutely HILARIOUS! (Also I printed out the whole photo to pin on the wall at my desk when I need to remember to just breathe.)
Could have been worse… You could have shown his troublepuffs AND his butthole…. Wild times
bwahaha. Reminds me of a particular Bob’s Burgers episode that was hysterical.
I’m happy to follow you on Substack as well as your continued blog here!
The world is in desperate need of Jenny Lawson’s musings and art 🌻💜✨
It would been weirder if he didn’t have a butthole! No apologies necessary! Technically it was just an X, so people can imagine what they want!
Besides thinking that the drawing was adorable, my second thought was that it would be a great tattoo!
The butthole was cute. And everyone has one. Some people may mistake their mouth from the butthole considering the crap some people spout.
Anyway, no apologies needed. You be you and we will continue to love it. 😍
I legit thought, “of course she drew the butthole, how very Jenny.” 🤣 Nothing abnormal at all, carry on.
I feel like cat buttholes are entirely on brand… keep it up because I am totally here for the weird drawings! 😀
I am old and as a child we played pin the tail on the donkey and there was always a large X on the side view of the donkey on the wall…
But you were blindfolded so… There is that…
I think an X is always discreet.
Thank you for sharing your yourself with us and oversharing your delightful animals with us.
Cats shove their buttholes in our faces as a sign of love and trust, so there is that. Try not to let embarrassment eat you up. You’re weird, we’re weird, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. I mean, who coined the term, “Fantastic Strangelings,” hmm? 😜
My mom crocheted coasters of cat’s rear ends, complete with the butthole x. So. It could be worse.
Also I love those coasters
Not to worry dear friend, I was given a gift “when we saw it we thought of you!” it is a plastic towel holder shaped like the back end of a cat…to get the towel to stay, you stick a corner into the cat’s butthole and the little split gasket holds the towel…true story, still have it on the wall in my kitchen!
I’m with Wendy, this particular butthole would make a great tattoo! Just the lower half or the whole image – you are incredibly talented btw. Drawing tattoos could turn into a new side gig for you. ;P
Loved it! The x was very discreet! 😜
Loved it! Just what I needed to remind myself to rest. Thanks!
Honestly, Jenny, we know what we get with you. You should charge extra for buttholes.
UPDATE! 10k subscribers! Yay!
LOL!!!
The comments 🤣😂🤣😂
Wait, you said it LOOKS like a butthole. What was it supposed to be?
(A butthole. But not a photo-realistic one. 🙂 ~ Jenny)
I print the art each time you post and give one to each of my interns. Their office is lined with their colored in versions of your wonderful drawings. Hope that is okay, but you are bringing joy to our office.
(I LOVE THIS. ~ Jenny)
Congrats on >10k subscribers!
It’s always time for naptime, indeed. I’ve been relishing a few extra naps while recovering from COVID (first timer) and the reminder to be kind to myself is right on the mark.
When I haven’t been napping, I’ve been devouring this series on Reddit’s nosleep by Bonnie Quinn (aka fainting–goat), “How To Survive Camping”
https://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/clp5h4/how_to_survive_camping/
Would love to see your rendering of your beautiful child!
Do you use the phrase “wound tighter than a cat’s assshole”? E.g. My boss is wound tighter than a cat’s asshole! It’s one of my fav sayings…
Oh no, the cat butt incident! That’s hilarious and a great reminder that even the best of us make mistakes. But hey, it shows your authenticity and makes you even more relatable.
I’m glad you’re enjoying your art substack. Your work is always inspiring and your writing is so honest and funny. I’m definitely looking forward to seeing what you create next. Keep up the great work!
