Synopsis
In the center of the city lies a place widely renowned as the Sparklecare hospital and medical center, despised by doctors everywhere because of its glamoriously clean reputation. Not one bad thing has ever come out of there- in fact, nobody has ever come out of there at all. The unfortunately named cat known as Barry Ill, desperate for treatment he can trust, goes in blindly. Soon, he discovers the horrible truth of what lurks within the hospital's walls. A story of the violently absurd, reeking with complete and utter HOPELESSNESS and DESPAIR.

CW categories and suggestions
Content warnings are put into generalized categories because smaller categories may become difficult to maintain, as some things may come up and be added later as the comic goes on.
If you have a trigger/squick/general uncomfortable thing and you don't know what category it goes under, feel free to review the content warning masterlist.
Unsure of what category your trigger/squick is under, and it isn't listed anywhere? Feel free to leave a comment on the masterlist for clarification.

What are series?
Sparklecare as a story is separated into 3 "acts" that are titled "series". The reason they're called series is because each series has a different story and different protagonist. Everything Sucks, series 1, focuses on Barry as the protagonist.
There's currently only one series out right now and no information about what makes the other series "different" from series 1 is available at this point in time, but someday you'll understand!
