I think Miss Mikey, and the grays will get along fine after the move. Think Cotton Kitty will get a break from MM, as she already plays with Dori. Plus there is another senior kitty that live with the Grays, that will probably enjoy just chilling with CK. So the Grays may leave her alone too.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

When I am particularly down, I find that making even a small donation to a worthy cause or person in need really saves my sanity. Traci is a good friend to our three pups & would appreciate any help you can spare

This is Denver. She was hit by a car, leaving her with multiple broken bones in her back leg. Due to the extent of her injuries, she was at immediate risk for euthanasia. She needs surgery as soon as possible so she can walk comfortably again. You can help her below ❤️‍🩹

Bestie and the Grays are here. Sorry been a bit inactive. Haven’t taken pics of the Grays yet, because they areived with Dorian having thrown up and one of them pooped in the carrier. So that was delightful. They have ventured fully down stairs yet. Poor babies. Dori threw up on Sasha’s head too.

1. Hundreds of corps that pledged to stop donating to members of Congress who voted to overturn the election on 1/6/21 have broken their promise over the last 5 years

But we've identified 10 promise keepers:

Farmers
Airbnb
Expedia
Nike
Clorox
Eversource Energy
Holland & Hart
Qurate
Whirlpool
Lyft
Five years later, these 10 corporations still aren’t funding election deniers
Five years ago today, on January 6, 2021, a violent mob stormed the Capitol building.

There was a Chinese delegation in Venezuela when all this bs went down. Aside from the obvious atrocities committed, and also incredibly concerned about this. Like, are they ok? What happened to them, too? How much worse is this than what we already know? 🤬🤬🤬

This feral kitty is in bad shape. Our veterinarian feels he has a good chance with amputation.

Black cat with leg bone showing. 💔 Urgent Help Needed for an Injured Feral Cat 💔 On Christmas Eve, Elainie reached out to us about a feral cat she had seen who was badly injured. Then the cat disappeared. Days passed, and she feared the worst. On Saturday, Elainie saw the cat again and immediately contacted us. Today, Sheila brought her a trap, and thanks to Elainie’s patience and care, the cat was safely trapped within about an hour. That alone is remarkable—and a testament to how much people in our community care about the animals on this island. This cat is in critical condition. They have lost part of a leg, and the bone is exposed. Tomorrow we are bringing them to Progressive Veterinary Hospital, hoping that amputation is possible and that we can give them a real chance to survive. If surgery can be done, we will also need a safe place for recovery—either continued veterinary care or a quiet home where the cat can heal in a large crate. We don’t yet know what the outcome will be. What we do know is that this cat deserves compassion, dignity, and every chance we can give. We are asking for help to cover: • Emergency veterinary care • Possible amputation surgery • Post-op care, medication, and recovery needs This is hopefully our last plea for funds before the new year, and all donations are tax-deductible. Every dollar truly matters, and every share helps. We are so deeply grateful for this community—for Elainie, for Sheila, and for everyone who looks out for animals who cannot ask for help themselves. Thank you for standing with us, and with this brave cat, when it matters most. 🐾💛 💔 Urgent Help Needed for an Injured Feral Cat 💔 On Christmas Eve, Elainie reached out to us about a feral cat she had seen who was badly injured.

Hi hello I have a LOST DOG! We found this young lady skittering across the street at around 11:00am today (12/29/25) near 6613 East Green Lake Way N between N 66th St and Sunnyside Ave N in Seattle! (Next to Green Lake Park)
