At first Murdoch was NOT pleased when we brought home a kitten... but he quickly realized he could train her. First lesson was on proper play technique.

Gabe loves pistachios, but he has to work for them. I often give him dog puzzle toys to solve for the coveted treats.

#Inktober2025 Day 23: Firefly
I recently learned that female fireflies in the genus Photuris will mimic flash patterns of females of other firefly species (such as Photinus), lure in males of those species, and then devour them. They're sometimes called "femme fatale" fireflies.
