I spend most of my time either trapped under a cat or in the lab trapped by my addiction to experimental science.

Is he behind me? He's right behind me, isn't he?

Why not do turtles? The armor is right there!

[Disclaimer: I'm actually so excited about the frogs. I used to work with frogs and have so much frog stuff. I am uncharacteristically prepared for this moment in time.]
I tried to get a photo of his toe beans. I really tried. So much toe fluffiness!

My boy was diagnosed by accident (long story). The eventual diagnosis came after they drained fluid from his lungs for biopsy and PCR. There are different forms (wet, dry) that can affect different organs, so diagnosing can be different depending on how the illness is presenting.
The pills don't have any taste, so they're easy to give - you can just cover them with churu, and they'll get licked right up! My boy got so excited for the churu that he'd eat the pills as soon as I put them on the plate because he knew the churu was coming.
This boy is only still here due to that treatment! He has been disease-free for over 3.5 years after being given a prognosis of 35 days to live without treatment.
Counterpoint: who *doesn't* name a walrus?
Joining the trend of showing cat photos. Enjoy this apex predator.

I always know he's watching over me....

(And just look at that glorious toe floofiness!)

As someone with Italian ancestry, I feel seen. After giving a 90-minute lecture, the smart watch on my wrist tracking steps typically registers that I've walked at least three miles.
I want to be asleep, but someone is being cute. How can anyone sleep through this level of cuteness?

You deserve to feel your feelings and express them as much or little as you need to. Grief does not have a schedule. It hits when it hits. Your whole world has changed, and you don't have to act like it hasn't (unless that is what helps).
Mockery of Cuomo is deserved. But one of the great things about NYC is how you see all types on public transit, and no one cares what your bank account is or if you're a celebrity. "You think you're better than me" is a way of life. Wealthy people and celebrities absolutely take the bus and subway.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
That sounds amazing. Similar (but distinct) to french fries dipped in chocolate milkshake that I love. There's something delightful about the salty and crunchy meeting sweet in this fashion.
Is he half asleep, or is he becoming a zombie?

My italian great grandparents went to a Lutheran church when they got here for the same reason and had my grandmother baptized Lutheran. She had terrible headaches as a child, so when a catholic priest was traveling by, they had her re-baptized because they worried the Lutheran baptism didn't take.
Why does my cat smell like laundry detergent?

And why is there cat hair on the wet clothes I hung up to dry?

Life is full of mysteries.
I had a related problem at my PT eval checking range of motion. They said move as far as you can, so I did. They said it was surprising given my issues that I could move so far without pain. I said oh, no it hurt a lot. They said most people stop moving when it hurts. Is that an option?
It takes a lot of energy being that cute. Frequent naps are warranted!
Some kids were jealous that we "got to skip class." They didn't realize that we were assigned EXTRA work (reading, etc) they would have hated and that we were craving. It's more exhausting to be bored than have extra work. Having time for one's thoughts to wander and obsess is not always healthy.
