we were kinda productive today. I had some outside help with moving a greenhouse and picking up the yard form 2 dudes.

Grumpy old man looked like he was ready to give me a difficult quest from his supervisor post.

We got an order of a years worth of treats that everyone was excited for

Snuggly void decided to hop in the shower with me, she’s done this since she was a kitten. Loves a good steam, she’s a bit stuffy right now & she knows it’s good for her watching me w foster kittens over the years. She watched birds this afternoon

Kleptocat recharged his evil via solar power today

Energy I’m going with the next year.. especially when I’ve been nothing but nice & courteous and you’ve been consistently an asshole

So you can get extra after dinner snackies bc you had a long day… but you were late to feed us and we get nothing? This is utter BS and you will have mutiny on your hands soon if you don’t start dealing us some extra snacks like you do the outdoor cats

We got backpay today, I’m relieved but 2/3 of it is going to savings and I’ll keep doing that in case we are back on the bull in February.

He got in all the cuddle time this weekend. I’m back to my regular schedule. Unfortunately bc of all the things the holiday pet sitting is very light this month good for them.. bad for me.

I’m hoping the December holidays will pick up a little but idk w another impending shutdown
November 17, 2025 at 5:44 PM
It’s caturday and he complains anytime I get up from the couch.. very demanding of cuddles today. usually I have 2 of them on my lap but the voids are snoozing elsewhere today.

After 40+ days of furlough I went back to work today and ended up being gone 12 hours since I had some cats to check on before and after work.

mad at me for being gone so long, he’s used to extra snackies and late morning couch snuggles & evening dance pawty time. Been glued to me since I got home

Finally got to sit outside for a fire w some company tonight. A nice way to ease back into the chaos at work
November 14, 2025 at 1:56 AM
we are taking leave today bc I already had some stuff for my other job and I’m not being a dick to them for late night passage of things that was only meant to cause us more anguish.

We are going to enjoy our last little bit of quiet and peace and hold that w us as we go forward

Made carrot cake cookies today and told him he could only sniff… he is as big mad… wants a cookie or cake he can eat
November 13, 2025 at 12:07 AM
Well, the one nice thing about getting back to work hopefully soon and getting backpay is that I can finally reschedule Vet appointment for my one Kat and make a maintenance visit for the one outdoor cat that’s 12

The snuggly void was very mad I left her TWICE this am from snuggling on the couch. She said she deserves extra treats today and no she didn’t rip more of the couch
November 11, 2025 at 7:07 PM
I had a post about this bs that I deleted bc we don’t need more of that.

So here’s my adorable cat trying to swindle me to give him mor treats

Our buddy Thackeray Binx has showed up both days this wknd. Yesterday he helped me w trash and some outside stuff today he was waiting for me when I got back from checking on cats. he’s such a sweet guy I’m half tempted to bring him inside

I’ve been trying out the #toogoodtogo app this wk. My first attempt Friday was underwhelming but today I had much success with 2 places. One was a small business that I’ll support again another was a bagel place that I got 18 bagels for $4 and I have bagels for a month.

Kleptocat was very excited that I finally ran my virtual 10k and when I got home he could assist with stretches.

Last summer after my marathon I had a panic attack running along the mall, today no problems, my mind wasn’t a prison of all these shit at work & eveything else. I’m hoping it stays
November 7, 2025 at 1:14 AM
The grandpawrents sent this festive little collar for Kleptocat who walked around w it but wouldn’t let me get a pic. Tiny void allowed some pictures in turn for treats.

We are reading gardening books tonight to get ideas.

Holiday pet sitting looks like it’s gonna be very light this year. I usually take off work so I can take as many assignments but I’m not this year because I’ve been furloughed for so long.

I make most of my pet sitting money on the holidays & was hoping to make the same to put into savings😞
November 4, 2025 at 5:05 PM
It’s Monday again another week I’m furloughed. I’m super busy this week with pet visits. The annoying thing is we don’t have transit benefits this month bc they shut them off so I’m doing out of pocket to get to everything or biking if it’s nice out.

Won’t get home in time to work outside either 😞

We are inside sorting laundry and doing stuff around the house bc I finally have a minute. Next week I’m busy w pet visits which I’m thankful to have whilst still being furloughed. It’s supposed to be nice weather and I can bike since our transit benefits didn’t get renewed for November.

Well we didn’t get that many trick or treaters this year. Last year I blew through 50 bags in an hour, this year I was out for 2 hours and maybe 12 kids/teens. this year just felt different than other years.
November 1, 2025 at 1:30 AM
was going to run but even though these are cute they keep sliding while walking so they’ll be really annoying when running.

But festive and cute leggings for Halloween!

Gotta get ready for trick or treaters

Had good luck at the fed food bank this am. A few things that were in the grab box I can’t use bc of allergies or dietary things so I’ll be putting it out w my goodies tonight for trick or treaters
