The human has a book full of delicious recipes for felines--but they've never cooked for us! Why are we not getting daily home cooked meals? We want to file a complaint. Our goodnight hugs go out to anyone who likes to cook--or eat--so that's everyone...🥘

The human is wondering how to transport all of us without making a zillion trips, so we recommended boxes. (Like, duh.) They weren't convinced. Our goodnight hugs go out to anyone feeling lonely or sad and everyone that wishes moving boxes would pack themselves...📦

The kittens got too rambunctious today and broke some stuff the human was trying to pack, including a favorite candle. (They shouldn't use that kind of language in front of children.) Our goodnight hugs go out to everyone that hates #Monday & anyone that likes candles...🕯️

Today was a lazy day here at Fort Cattis. Everyone slept most of the day while one of us stood guard by the window in case the evil Pigeon Mafia tried to invade. Our goodnight hugs go out to everyone in need of a good hug, a good nap, or a good guard at their window...

The temps are beginning to drop and we've even seen a few leaves start to change color, so maybe fall is finally here. Our goodnight hugs go out to everyone feeling lonely or sad and to anyone looking forward to hearing the leaves crunch under their feet as they walk...🍂

Private Domino insisted on trying to help the human sort through their books again. It didn't go well--again. Our goodnight hugs go out to everyone who's feeling overwhelmed at the moment and anyone who needs an intervention about their book addiction (like the human)...

The human just got home. WE HAVE A NEW BASE! WITH A SUNROOM!
The human says it's a million miles away in the middle of nowhere & they don't know how we'll get everything moved, but we'll be safe. Our goodnight hugs go out to everyone who sent us luck & prayers--THANK YOU! 💖

The human must get up & drive a long way tomorrow to hopefully secure us a new base. We'll all take turns beside the alarm clock & administer the Claw of Discipline if they don't get up ASAP. Our goodnight hugs go out to everyone needing a bit of good luck...🍀

It's been storming on and off all day, so we've all taken turns watching from the windows in between naps. Our goodnight hugs go out to everyone who's feeling sad, lonely, or anxious and anyone that enjoys taking a nap while it's raining...

The human was awakened this morning when Private Domino bravely attacked a mosquito that had landed on them. (The human was not grateful.) Our goodnight hugs go out to anyone stressed about the upcoming week or who'd appreciate a furry mosquito slayer...

The human spent the day going through their books, looking for ones to give away. (They weren't very successful.) Our goodnight hugs go out to everyone that loves to read and anyone that can't bear to part with their books...📚

It's a bit cooler tonight, so everyone is enjoying an early late-evening nap before our midnight PT run. Our goodnight hugs go out to everyone who's had a hard week, anyone feeling lonely, and everybody that likes napping on a soft stuffed animal...💖

The A/C is acting up again, so we're all sitting by the windows to hopefully catch a cool evening breeze. (Don't worry--we have screens.) Our goodnight hugs go out to anyone feeling lonely or anxious and everybody who's ready for cooler weather and Halloween...🎃

The human is stressing over moving expenses, so we told them to kick back and relax for a while. (They refused. They're so stubborn.) Our goodnight hugs go out to everyone who needs a little break, a little nap, a little snack, or all of the above...🐾

We cats hate change, but we know it can be difficult for humans too, especially when they've lived someplace for a long time. We know the human will be sad to leave this city. They've lived here for many years. Big hugs to you and your parents...💗

A neighbor who's lived across from us for many years moved away today. We'll miss waving to their cat when she was in the courtyard. Our goodnight hugs go out to anyone missing someone, everyone trying to find a new home, and those who just need a hug...💗

The human has been stressing over expenses all day, so we made them take a walk so we could watch the sunset through the office window. Our goodnight hugs go out to everyone feeling stressed or lonely or just sick of everything at the moment. We prescribe a nap...

The human put on a movie so we'd stay occupied while they sorted papers. But they put on "Fish" and most of us had seen that, so we decided sorting papers was more fun. (They gave up.) Our goodnight hugs go out to everyone feeling nervous or anxious about this week...💕

One of the outside kitties comes to the window to visit after they eat, but when the human goes out to see if they'd like to come in, they run away. (They must be shy.) Our goodnight hugs go out to all the shy or introverted people who would like to make new friends...💖

We'll find out for sure this week. The human is praying and we're all keeping our paws crossed...🙏🐾
