4 days of practice with very mediocre art skills

Posted a similar thread in r/tattoobeginners and got virtually hung so I'm hoping for some actual help over here. Been working with a machine and stencils bc my own drawing skills are not quite where I want them to be (although I'm actively practicing, some pics at the end of my shitty doodles) and was just looking for some constructive criticism. The images are a jumbled mess of my practice over the last few days with no rhyme or reason. What I can say is that my favs/best so far definitely have to be the crescent moon, dog, and the assortment of skulls I've attempted.
Any and all suggestions/tips/advice is greatly appreciated!! As I'm planning on ordering some more supplies to ensure cleanliness then I'm going to try scratching on myself before I fuck up any of my friends lol

My cat is super attached to me but won't stop peeing on my bed

Hey all! This is my first time posting on Reddit bc I am all out of ideas. I got my baby girl (who was already ~ 1.5yrs old) from the shelter about 2 years ago and she's very inconsistently scratched on furniture or peed on both couches in our house. Which is definitely annoying to clean up after but not the core issue nor something I necessarily see as super problematic. My real issue is that my cat only really spends time with me (I live in a house of 4 and one dog) and when I'm not there for whatever amount of time she deems appropriate she will begin a streak of peeing on my bed at whatever opportunity she can, idk what the reasoning for it is as I've been to multiple vets multiple times and they've all said she's all good. For some context she also had a weeklong streak of peeing on my bed both after we got our dog almost a year or so ago, she also did the same thing after I got back from a week long out of state trip like 2 weeks ago. I really don't want to rehome her if I can help it nor do I want to take her back to the shelter. I've considered getting another cat to provide mental stimulation while I'm gone since my family doesn't play with her much and she gets bored with all the new toys I constantly buy her in a couple days. I work 5 days a week so I'm not home that often and when I am I have 100+ things to do before I go back to work the next day. She didn't start these behavior problems until about a year into her being in the house. ANY and ALL suggestions are deeply appreciated!
