Well, we have a cat staying overnight. Our neighbors parents, who own the house, wanted to set her loose in the neighborhood tonight. But we have coyotes and a band of wild ass raccoons, so we said no way—we’re keeping her overnight. She’s a sweet girl, hope she’s able to calm down.

Neighbor picked up a sweet kitty wandering. Lady had to run an errand, so this feisty girl is chilling with us until we find her people. She’s sweet and clean as hell, and waited until I put down some cloths to pee, so she’s clearly a kept kitty. I hope we find her people. They must be so worried.

I’m sewing/altering things in the living room today. This has made Otis wild AF for some reason. He’s running around like his tail’s on fire!

Happy Caturday from Blurry Otis
Spent the morning volunteering with a small group who cleans invasive plant species out of a local wildlife preserve. Just incredible. My heart and soul needed this beautiful hard work.
We also clean trash as we go, and I found my first crack pipe! Not quite as majestic as the ducks, I’m afraid.

This weird cat food commercial with the Cone of Goo cracks us the hell up. I’ve started sending this pic to my husband randomly. It’s scares him.
He presented me a Cone of Mac and Cheese yesterday!

Awesome thread! I'm an author who writes feminist satire for loud and uppity women. And dudes who are cool.
Lyssa Strata is a modern version of the Aristophanes play about a sex strike and, naturally, hijinks ensue. But not *those* hijinks. bookshop.org/p/books/lyss...

Otis sends a hug. Feel free to hug Otis back. He may bite, but it’s a good luck bite. That’s what he says.
