Joe tried pulling a privacy curtain around his hammock, but the paparazzi got him anyway.

Harlan has been up to mischief all day, so he’s tuckered out now.❤️

It really does! We had one grey cat, Joe, who had serious emotional issues we were thinking might make him difficult with other cats, but had planned to take in one stray tabby/white mix from the front porch, with our fingers crossed. Then my brother found a tiny starving void, Pterri, so... 🤷

Mom and brother coming for lunch with us tomorrow. I’ve got Italian “beef” in crockpot (but made with a pork roast that was 1/3 the price of beef) and pulled a cherry-frangipane pie out of the oven. Made with Marie Callender crust, because my energy is low. Table is decluttered. Now I can rest!👍🏻

Three masked fellows have been causing a ruckus on our back porch roof after having a feast of kitty kibble outside. Harlan is slightly concerned they may break in and eat *his* kibble next.😆 One bold miscreant is certainly giving him the eye in return.

You need to carry a can of red spray paint on your next walk.

Was going to bed early, but perhaps I need to exercise caution, lest I be exterminated.

My Joe was a tiny feral. I invested 3 years of blood from deep bites & clawings, came so close to giving up at times. Now he's my heart-to-heart boy, a sweet goofy cat. I'm so glad I didn't give up on him, because I'm sure he'd have been put to sleep at the shelter the first time he bit someone.

This is the cross pendant I'd like to get. Think it'll save my ass from the camps, or just get me pressed with stones or drowned?

I’m damn near stove in. Baked a scratch cake for Mom and brother’s birthday celebration tomorrow. Making a pot of gumbo for the same. And baking a focaccia with lemon and rosemary for tonight, will heat up a jar of home canned soup to go with. I’m too decrepit for all this cooking in one day.🤦♀️🤷♀️

We’ve had three black kitties over the years, along with tigers, calicos, and torties. Here’s our latest, a sweet little girl named Pterri.
