(He's always been a bit of a fraidy cat and seemed to be wary of Ronald from the beginning, even though he's older and was probably bigger at that point, and he is DEFINITELY overwhelmed by Huelga's energy, even though Eliot is super patient with him, and Todd and Eliot are besties/boyfriends.)

(It makes me happier than it should to see Todd cozy on this chair. He's been spending a LOT of time in a couple kitchen cabinets recently, which could be partly due to cooler weather but seems a lot more timidity, so I was glad to see him relaxed in the open.)

(When Shanks was a kitten, she kept managing to get herself stuck in a closet with a terrifying hole in the wall, and it took me forever to figure out how she was pushing her way in because the sliding doors had no track on the floor. 🤦)

(Austin Pets Alive was the place I was thinking of, but it sounds like she's already tried them.
I'm wondering if @ohjazzyjazzy.bsky.social or @7brokecatz.bsky.social have any ideas?
I know a former coworker used to do a lot of work with Emancipet. They might have some suggestions??)

Our second owner surrender in one week, this beautiful, soft and fluffy boy is named Moon. He was too overwhelmed by six! Small children! in his last home and wasn’t getting enough stimulation, and has grown up as an only kitten so is now a teen with some misplaced rough play behaviors with the kids

(And as much as I played up how I suggest "teenager-friendly" topics like dress codes before, I have multiple students who are pregnant right now - one with her second child - so this isn't some abstract issue for them to be sheltered from.)

(We talk about the trade-offs of 'Gale vs. Google' and I am always very frank about how the search algorithm is much more limited [because they're not also serving up ads, etc, etc]. This is some next-level shit, though.)
