Have taken in a rescue, Frida, having been found in horrific circumstances. Unsure of little one’s age as she was found very malnourished. She is full of food, play & personality now 🥹❤️ #catsky #catsofbluesky

A ★½ review of The Roses (2025)
Eh…without the cast, this would just be one of those crappy Netflix made movies you stick on & are thankful you didn’t pay to see. Except I did pay to see it, and whilst I don’t entirely regret it, I ...

August Reads 📚💙 Pt. 1
Great premise, read it quickly but the way in which it was written meant I struggled to engage. I felt disconnected from the characters, perhaps due to the third-person telling it the lack of descriptive insight into who they were beyond what had happened to them. #booksky

July Read pt.1 💙📚
As a soon to be qualified art therapist, I was admittedly sceptical about this read. But pleasantly surprised! An insightful, honest and at times hilarious insight into both providing and participating in therapy. Felt respectful of her clients experiences and her own throughout.

Whilst I don’t miss the bad place bird app one bit, I am sad Bsky doesn’t do the cute balloon birthday icons that horrid bird app did which filled your profile the birthday happiness for the day. Nevermind, this place is much nicer even if it is a bit balloon-less…

June Read 💙📚
A really easy to read autobiography, got through this super quick! Was gripped by the real life accounts of Dr Browns career switch, her heartfelt & at times harrowing experiences, which shone light on the importance of providing care to all.
