Can I recommend Bosnia Herzegovina as a place to visit? Just got back with a long reading list for myself! Such a rich and recently dreadful history, a real blend of Islam and Christianity (at least where we were), beautiful, friendly - and if you like cats, then you’ll be totally set!

I don’t think the message is “get a raccoon” - but they are beautiful
Raccoons are showing early signs of domestication.

Urban raccoons are evolving a short snout, a telltale feature of pets & other domesticated animals, but scientists believe this is just a ploy to get closer to our trash.

This is Roy. We feed him but aren't falling for his bullshit act.

I have a journal from about 11-18. I’m now 50. My 2 school friends from the time are still duty bound to remove this item without reading it and destroy it! But it’s sort of nice to experience some of the intensity and rawness of the time.
So I was going through some boxes and found my journals from elementary and middle school and let’s just say I’m VERY grateful social media didn’t get big til I was in college. No one needed to be subjected to these thoughts.

Has anyone been to - or is anyone in - Sarajevo? I’ll be there at the end of the week and would welcome any recommendations. I have obviously looked some stuff up too, but can’t quite get a sense of it.

If you’re a fan of cats, you’ll be a fan of @saffronsfloof.bsky.social and the fostering she does (with a bit of help from a human)!
It’s time for some introductions.

And yes, you should follow our fosters on the ‘gram @littletailfosters

I’ve accidentally fostered some cats and they have all been young and not neutered. Many vets will do this surgery fairly cheaply and there is financial help from charities too www.pdsa.org.uk/pet-help-and...

There are two key points at which this country took a wrong turn. One is when Gordon Brown didn't say "Look I'm sure she's perfectly nice but what she *was* bigoted". The other was when Sky let Goodwin off the hook by cutting away. Should have made him eat that entire fucking book.

Good mini thread and link. As an adult, I appreciate being able to do some of my work admin at home where I can get up and down and fidget as much as I like and sit or stand - so 5 year olds must need those options even more!
There's a debate going on atm about how much 5 year olds should sit at desks. The weird thing about these conversations is that we have plenty of evidence on how sitting affects health and development but this gets ignored because some people see stillness as a virtue. 🤷‍♀️

Why we should sit less
There is increasing evidence that spending too much time sitting is bad for your health.

Sparrows are the best. I used to feed them all the time and have a line of them on my fence on the morning. This practice has now stopped due to cats also knowing about the event. Said with no cat hate - I’ve got 2 indoor ones.
Like clockwork.

@ronanhession.bsky.social really enjoying the TV adaptation of Leonard and Hungry Paul. Because I am Home Counties girl, I did not hear their voices like that at all - what a fool - but so far as gentle, funny and heartbreaking as the book. Congratulations

Lunar House is a massive building in Croydon for “processing immigrants”. Yes that is actual language used. I live near there and for lots of reasons we have many neighbours seeking asylum or another legal right to remain. Some are utter wankers, most are lovely. Almost like actual humans
None of you lot spent any time at Lunar House and frankly, it shows

Well. Have you ever wondered how to save a cat’s eye? An actual eye.
Okay I have a very long - yet lovely - cat post. In the brewing. Everyone was fine. No cats died. Would anyone be interested how a bog standard semi-feral cat did amazing science?

I am not enjoying fireworks. The cats are more relaxed. Life is confusing

If you don’t already follow @bencanham.bsky.social then do. He is man with lots going on in his life, but never fails to be kind. Plus you could learn a bit about being autistic (whether you are or aren’t)

This is great - but as someone else has mentioned, would be lovely if it wasn’t apt! Bit listen to Eleanor and Alasdair Read That to feel better
Never not a perfect day to repost this

@lecagle.bsky.social just got a postcard from you! You have FAB handwriting, I’m sorry about your foot. What a lovely thing to actually happen 🥰

Sometimes the dog just wins. Commitment right there
3 times I’ve thrown this stick into the garden today.. now he’s sneaked it past me and is taking it up to bed

We adore Brice and his ways
A potentially incomplete list of things Bruce has licked in the last 10 minutes:
* A bottle of lotion
* The hand petting him
* The headboard of our bed
* A Bluetooth speaker

His tastes are varied.

Going to assume this isn’t being actually run as an experiment! I’m going to say about as long as a baby being left outside without crows would last. Tiny humans are useless and can’t eat solids. BUT if there were predators around, maybe a crow would help defend it? But probably not.
How long do you think a single normal crow could keep a human baby alive that it found outside. Like, it's feeding the baby bugs and worms and such, it's using wads of leaves in its beak to clean the baby, etc.

Never watch Monster: The Ed Gein Story. It is transphobic, misogynistic, has gratuitous holocaust scenes and so far as I can tell has little historic accuracy. Also really conflates mental health and serial killers and - as if that wasn’t enough - too long. Save yourselves.

I cannot get my cats into baskets for a health check. They hate people except me (will tolerate a select group when approached in EXACTLY the right way). But asking someone else is not really an option. Any ideas?????

@fendersonia.bsky.social Appreciate the follow and proving that I Alt text! Have the reminder set up. This goat was a total areshole and I loved their persistence.
