The top two dresser drawers is full of holiday supplies

Human is digging through them in search of a red stocking

I jump into the drawer just as her hand closes in on it and make myself comfortable

I can pull out the bottom drawer of every dresser in the house, but the top drawers elude me

Time to join the Human in the carport for her book sorting shift

I stand guard; books are valuable

The Human is moving furniture & requires supervision

The cat tree from Mom of Human bedroom has been relocated to the Catio and is now the tallest climbing structure

A thorough inspection of the cat tree & the greenhouse commences

After breakfast, I conduct Catio & Courtyard Morning Patrol

All is well; hedgewatch duties assigned to one of the street cats

I go inside and snuggle with fuzzy blankets and the Human buried under them

Did a display thing w/tarot cards from incomplete decks. will add a sign about tarot decks being perfect stocking stuffers / yule gifts once I think of clever wording

We will have over 100 decks for sale, all kinds, great selection

We sell single cards at $2 each, they make for good art supplies

I hate how this app displays pictures

Here is an uncropped view, with all my bookish mess

(I'm securing those cords on the left today so they don't become an issue for myself or any cat)

Rocky's new digs in my bedroom

He was on the top level at 3 am, but jumped off when I turned on the light to take a picture

The photos taken at night don't portray the colors accurately

I used 2 panels from the previous structure against the back portion

The Prosecution predicted & warned this would happen

Not even 6 mos & she's gone baby gone

Imprisoning Morgan is the only way to keep the community safe

The Leutner family needs 24 hour protection detail IMMEDIATELY

did the group home count their knives yet

Screenshot An ABC News article about convicted Slenderman stabbing Morgan Geyser escaping from her group home Morgan Geyser is pictured from the neck up at the bottom of the frame Text of screenshot: In January, several psychologists who've worked closely with Geyser testified to Geyser's preparedness for supervised release. But last week, prosecutors raised concerns, alleging Geyser had "violent" communication with a man outside the facility and read a book in the facility with "themes of sexual sadism and murder." The three doctors who evaluated Geyser earlier this year testified on Thursday that Geyser is well enough to be released and said the new allegations brought by Winnebago and the state do not change their opinion.

Here is my picture library of indoor "dream cat structures"

Maybe, somehow, some way, I will design a few of my own

Watch this space
Fort like castle cat tree, oak color wood construction 4 cubes across by 3 levels tall A hammock bridge connects 2 turrets on the top level A castle cat tree in grey wood and carpet construction. The castle is similar to what is typically seen in Disney animated films 5 main levels with many perches in between levels 10 cats scattered throughout the structure Bleached wood multi level cat structure with accent lights and decorative plants Approx 8 ft wide 3 ft deep, 7 ft tall 7 different perching levels with varying styles of cat beds 4 cats visible on the structure Massive carpet and sisal cat tree, designed to resemble a huge tree with dark brown wood and light to dark green moss and leaves Many perches and cubbyholes in the "trunks" of the tree One photoshopped cat is visible standing on one of the perches

Y'all 😻

Rocky & Vincent

Vincent was my very first #NotMyCat from March 2020

He has since brought me 5 additional #NotMyCat

4 were rehomed

Rocky decided he liked fuzzy blankets & warm bedrooms, so my mom took financial responsibility for him & I transitioned him to mostly indoors

This (not so) little man is a source of comfort right now

Mom knew what she was doing when she convinced me to take him on as a potential indoor kitty 18 months ago

We come from a long line of cat witches, and taking in the right cat at the right time is the song of our people

Is donating cat meds a thing? My vet doesn't accept meds

Looking for an organization that can accept unexpired, unopened prescription cat meds, Methimazole transdermal gel in particular

This batch arrived in the mail on Friday

SF Bay Area region, can ship

I love my local vet office

I've worked with 4 docs over the years and they are all wonderful

But I hate their app

I notified the vet of Bella's passing at 8 am

Just got this text

So I went into the app chat, talked to an actual human, who has now turned off notifications

I'm so tired
Text from vet app VCA: Bella's Physical Exam is due. Other services may also be due. Visit http:// (redacted) or call (redacted ) to schedule
