I thought it wasn't catmen enough and I did my own version with a bearded stinky catguy.\n[/quote]\n[quote]\nAnyway, that's the story of that drawing (I didn't even save it, it's a screenshot), I didn't thought this would become popular, I initially posted on facebook to some friends when I didn't had my twitter account.\nI don't like seeing it on alt right circles, but yeah I can't control that.\n[/quote]\nI couldn't find the non-screenshot drawing in question officially posted publicly anywhere on \"the artist's Facebook account\":https://www.facebook.com/people/ZIE/100044254458013 (or \"any of their active socials\":https://bio.link/suziesamico for that matter), but \"this reupload from Funnyjunk\":https://funnyjunk.com/Not+catboys+catmen/apwuNnc/#d21706_9839698 is the oldest one I could find, posted on September 2nd, 2022, and its quality far exceeds those of others around that time, even the screenshot from a day later."
