Hi! On this lovely #caturday evening I would love to share my #friends with you!

I hope y'all have the best Saturday you can, and that #wonderful #things come your way.

I'd like to send my virtual #love to your #cherished #ones, here and "gone".

#Cattica #catsofbluesky #notgone #boundbyred #meow
Charlie, tuxedo young lady, really takes the cake when it comes to expressions; she brings the haughty from her mother and the manic from her father! Look at her here, locked on target and JoJo posing! Like owning the second biggest bully on the playground, but a cat! Lil Bro, piebald sic dad, sneers at the lesser cats. Or he's smelled something foul, like a sweaty human stalking him or something....😅 Like owning a cactus + intrusive thoughts, but a cat! This is just a close up of Tybalt, the clas-sic head man around these parts. He's napping in his place of honor; mama's lap, where he gets snugs and kisses. Like a weight blanket, of cat! Melissa, tic-sic (I hope y'all are enjoying my naming nonsense) lady. She's my anchor these days. I'd tell you what she's like, but she's like a secret, but a cat!

Happy #Sunday!

This morning, #life #imitates #art as I'm about ready to get up and go see the #Cattica cats... #Jimbo is not ready, though! If only I had some #scissors....

#catsofbluesky #napping #sleepinglions #whatnow #humor #pics
The well-known image of a woman cutting through her robes in order to avoid disturbing the sleeping cat! Jimbo, dreamsicle piebald, napping on the end of my robe, perfectly happy with the current situation. I'm the clash of color! 😹 Another angle of my mans Jimbo, so strong and tough and a fighter, able to relax with me and rest so peacefully. I will sit here as long as he likes!

A #secondary #monday post!

The #Cattica #cats are checking in, have you had your full dose of #kitties before work?? Better check these #babies out to be sure! 😹

#catsofbluesky #Astor #Charlie #Missy #Lil-Bro #Melissa #pics #doyourbest! #haveagreatday! #salutations
Astor, mostly piebald white with black spots and tail, and Charlie, his tuxedo sister, hang out. They're growing! They're a year old this month! Big celebrations! They really do seem so like and so unlike their parents, but honestly they are some precious babies.... Even if Charlie totally has RBF here lol Missy, tortie-sic, checking up on you! Have you had enough flies? We can get you more flies. Let me just fix that spot there.... Jokes aside, she's so beautiful! Lil Bro! He's so sweet!... Looking. Sweet looking. Much like the bee, this flower lover can leave a stinging sensation! plus he's just gosh darn cute. 😻 Melissa, ticked sic, looking like a model! She's saying, "I want to be over there right now." Don't worry, darling, I'll bring "here" to you! She's so pretttty my girl!

Good #morning!!! Happy #Monday! You will own today!

Home #cats this morning! #Jimbo is happy but #Walker wants a bit of it now? He is so #fluffy!

#catsofbluesky #minicolony #pics #sendingbighugs #andmuchlove #greetings #optimistic
Jimbo, dreamsicle piebald, is bright eyed and bushy tailed this morning. I'm in love with this mans! He's an important part of my day, feeding him in the morning and being greeted when I get home. Walker has been here as long as I have, but hasn't bothered to try and get to know us yet. I never wanted to stress him, so our relationship was me shouting baby talk at him from a distance (in public 🙀 lol) well, he watched Jimbo get a place (and regular dinners) and has finally broken past those last few barriers. He came right up this morning! Jimbo's not super pleased, but I'm trying to show each of them they won't lose out on account of the other! Walker is a... Luxury piebald sic, maybe? He's really gorgeous, and has soooo much hair. It can be hard getting comfortable in this stage, so I used a trick I picked up from Missy- anything can be a toy! Sometimes the regular ones are just too noisy or bright. That little vine in front of his face was within reach and I swung it around until he went CHOMP! He's pleased with himself, I haven't scared him away, and we're both happy. He's already working out another toy already! A little stick, some pine needles can give that little thrill that sends all cats into play time, which I believe really helps your bond!

Jimbo greets the morning with a cheeky wink! The dreamsicle piebald is ready to steal your heart away! Left to Right: Astor (piebald white + black), Melissa (ticked sic), Tybalt (classic sic), and Charlie (tuxedo) sit, either enjoying each other's company or maybe trying to sit on the same bag... Ramen, diffuse dreamsicle piebald, naps atop the treasured Nap Spot™ bag, ignored for now by the rest. He stretches his arms out like he might be growing before your eyes! Lil Bro pauses, intent on something across the way. The piebald sic father is always ready for action!

Hey, #catsofbluesky!

What do you call this #pose? I'm thinking #kissthering?

Would love your #input!

#cat #pics #doyouevenpose #melissa #lookingcool #crowdsourcing #forscience
Melissa, ticked sic, reclines in a half loaf, or a side loaf (I'm really interested in learning all these lol) but her left paw is out and curled like a queen receiving some unimportant messenger! Or something. This is another angle of Melissa, ticked sic, being super cute. I've been trying to read up on the poses, but other than a few really common ones people kind of make up their own? And that's perfectly fine! It just makes me want to write my own dictionary...

It's a warm #Monday evening here!

I'd like to share some #lovelies with you all again today. I hope your week only gets better from here!

Tybalt, classic sic, sitting next to some drinks, lit by the sun. Looking real cute! This photo matches with Melissa's! Melissa, ticked sic, sitting next to some drinks, glowing in the light. Looking adorbs! This picture matches with Tybalt's! Charlie, tux young lady, looks so perfect here. Her face, so round... Them big old paws! She's "growing" into a fine chonker! 😻 This picture kinda matches with Astor's! Astor, piebald young man, fierce like his daddy. He's just so cute I don't really have words, honestly! I guess I could really pinch those cheeks! 🩷 This pic matches a bit with Charlie's!

An old #stray I'm calling #Walker has been around for a while, but with #Jimbo getting treats and food he's decided to approach us!

Here he is, #singing what I'm calling his happy food #song. I hope his #verses put a smile on your face today.

Happy #Caturday from #Jimbo!

Take care and rest well!

#catsofbluesky #shortpost #sleepy #sendinggoodvibes #thanks
Jimbo, dreamsicle piebald, really loves it when you rub his belly!! He's such a cutie. And a fierce warrior, too! Look at those thunder thighs! Jimbo gives the camera a coy look. Thanks for viewing and reading these! I'm looking forward to my next post and I'm pleased to say that I'll introduce a new friend tomorrow- one from my neighborhood, like Jimbo! His name is Walker and I'm gonna post the greatest video ever of him! Okay! Good night!

Happy #Monday you guys!

I hope the beginning of the #week has been good to you. #Charlotte and #Lil-Bro show you a bit of their #mischievous sides today!

#catsofbluesky #Cattica #pics #summerdays #silly
Charlotte (tuxedo mom) rests comfortably, but she's not really asleep; see what happens when someone triggers her senses! Charlotte 'activates', staring down (or up) the noisy kids above! She's got great threat in those eyes! Oh? Someone has wandered too close! Just a few steps, and I'll have you... Or, I have too much fun with how intense Charlotte (and her daughter) get. Lil Bro (piebald sic)is no player- he's got people to bite and this fan to fall in love with, and he's starting to get bored of the farm...

{really sad content warning}

Shiloh came into my life as this tiny kitten with huge lungs. She hollered about everything she didn't like the look of. She only wanted to be held, and she truly became my little girl.

I found out she passed last week. I'm still struggling to understand, but

Hey, #wednesday! I can play along with #whiskersWednesday today!

I hope I can put a smile on your face with these furry #friends!

Melissa, my ticked sic, stands beautifully for the camera! She's golden! I truly adore her. Charlie, tuxedo girl, catches your gaze with an effortless glance. She's style, she's hot*, and she's plotting your end! Beautiful girl!! *She's a cat duh Tybalt, classic sic, watches a dirt dobber fly freely. He's so handsome! He's here for loving, so you better get petting! Blurry Penny, void, shot! He's a master napper! I had my knees up and he didn't even blink before climbing up, since I was apparently saving the spot for him! Where he lacks in balance, he certainly makes up with claws! (Ow lol)

We are doing okay! I have some #father-son #pics for y'all! Please take good care of yourself, as well!

Lil Bro, piebald sic, looking beautiful in the early sunset light! He's looking off camera here. He's Astor's daddy! Astor, piebald with some black, cutely checks out the camera person. He's a smart, tough boy who is a year(!) old- on the 20th, with Charlie, and he's getting bigger everyday! Ramen, young dreamsicle piebald, is opening up! He's looking at the camera person as well, showing off his gorgeous eyes! He's Miso's son! Miso, orange, is a sweet dad, most of the time. Here he is giving the sweetest look I've ever seen! This guy just loves to be loved, I guess.

Hi friends, I hope you have had a really good weekend! I spent time with the #Cattica #babies yesterday, and #Jimbo has been soooo lovable it's like a flip got switched! I mean-

Here's some sweet darlings to wish you a good start to your week!

#catsofbluesky #humor #love #cats #thanks #lilsadtho
Charlotte, tuxedo mom, reminding me why I suspect something demonic in that family line.... She just has the expression of a person who's about to stir up some shit. 😹 You might think Shiloh, diffuse orange young lady, looks pretty freaked out here. You're very correct! Melissa is mean-mugging Shiloh from my lap, but that didn't stop this enterprising sweetie! Why, just get in the bowl, Melissa loves that! And you know what? It worked. Smartest cat, got many kisses. Jimbo, dreamsicle piebald, stepped onto my lap and seriously hasn't looked back. He'll jump right up even when I'm in the chair (something terrifying only days ago), and flip over to get some snugs. He's a kneader, with no claw control, yet manages to grab my hand with the same claws out and not break skin. He's not shy about giving kisses back, but still a little suspicious about this whole "hang out with a human" thing. One of his favorite games is "ooooh nooooooo you're chaaaasing meeee!" Today, he nipped mawmaw's toe after receiving very nice pets haha I almost cried laughing. I'm very grateful to have this little guy near home- I'm probably crazy selfish, already getting to love on so many babies, but early this morning I decided to give up on sleep and step out- he was there! He's a wonderful new neighbor! Thanks for reading this wall of text... I'm not planning on reducing my posting, but I'm having trouble finding joy around me. I know it's there, and right now I'm blind to it (also sick lol) so I'll just keep swimming until the spots in my vision fade!

Guess who woke up to their first dead squirrel gift? 😹

#Jimbo is working hard to be a great friend! (I gave it to the bayou, though... Hopefully he doesn't notice)

Here are some #pictures from #Cattica! I hope they find you well this #evening.

#catsofbluesky #Monday #sendingloveyourway #sleepy
Missy, tortie-sic, relaxes for a moment. Maybe she's got a lot to think about, or is just pondering the meanings of life... Either way she's suuuper cute doing so! She's looking off camera, and you can (hopefully) see how pretty her green eyes look with her fur! (If not, now you know! Also sorry) Melissa, ticked sic, looks like a real super model here! She's got the attitude, and I am ready to capture it! I might be a little biased, 😹, but I think we make a great team! She's relaxed on her side, staring straight down to the bottom of the frame. Gosh! Lil Bro, piebald sic, stares the camera down. His ears are teasing his natural form- they will twist and curve just a bit, revealing horns!! Look at that face; what could he be thinking? Is he gonna eat somebody? Maybe start a coup? Keep your eyes open.. Astor, piebald plus black, is just so darn cute! The camera is low to the ground, tilting to capture the baby boy from below! This is what we might see, once they've taken over the world. Good thing they're really fricken cute from this angle! Thanks for reading all my sillies. I'm doing my best, and I'm rooting for you, okay? Kick today's ass!!

Happy #Caturday!

I just wanted to share my wonderful sit with the friendly neighborhood agent of chaos #Jimbo, a relaxing time with no #pet, but a #freebeast.

Everyone at #Cattica is doing fine! I am okay. Will share from them soon.

Fuck #fireworks! Poor animals.

#catsofbluesky #rememberingdixie
Jimbo, orange and white (or dreamsicle) piebald, has been getting much closer! I can give pets, but he's not fully comfortable around me yet, and my phone going off or just catching him wrong can have him bolt out of reach, but I've also learned that if I cry dramatically he'll run back! 😸 He's not sure what this whole lap thing is about, but he's pretty close to figuring it out! Hi, Jimbo! He's really handsome! He has wide set shoulder blades and is just massive. He's not scared of dogs at all, and will send any weaker minded ones running. He jumped about ten feet in the air and spent two minutes reacting to that pot behind him, seemingly worried for our safety. Turns out it was the little plastic tray it was sitting in... Thank goodness he was there to protect me! Look! He says, love me! Pet me! He's just so sweet and precious. I'm very biased! Jimbo is rubbing against my hip (sitting on the ground) because he isn't quite ready to totally trust me. That's okay! Everyday I get to hangout with Jimbo is a day closer to when I can get him to just show up and jump into my lap lol Look at that baby! He's so gorgeous. My dreamsicle friend has such mighty paws, and love in his heart... I'm tired lol, so that's all for now. Thank you to everyone who thought of us this past week. Take care!

Good #morning!

Happy #Caturday! I'd like to share a #poem I read this morning, which led to many tears and that constant question of, am I doing enough?

You are.

#catsofbluesky #love #greetings #salutations #softsaturday
A poem by Spencer Madsen. "my cat is sad no one else in his family is a cat we are all humans except for him he is excluded from most things and no one tells him why he just wants to play and be loved he looks at us with wonder and disappointment he says hello i am a cat what is my existence what is that / why it and not me / please can you look at me and love me too can i have some of your food please im sorry i don't like my food so much do you want to play with my toys? this one is my favorite do you like me are we brothers why didn't I grow up why am I so small can you help me be happy where are you going" I simply changed up the font and added Tybalt, the classic sic, and flowers.

Here's a #sweet little post that makes me #happy!

It has been a #year since #Penny showed up in our lives! These aren't new #pictures, but they mark a #journey I'm so so #lucky to be part of!

#catsofbluesky #FKTC #appreciation #oneyear #preciousboy #blackcat #love
June 20th, 2024. A black kitten has shown up at a family member's home the night before. I'm so pleased to greet "her"! (This mistake lasted long enough that the name stuck) Missy was still nursing her litter and Penny didn't think twice! He became hers too. He played a little roughly with the infants, so he was ready to meet his future "dad"! Penny, Nov 28th, 2024. Penny is the sweetest cat I know. He generally gets along with everyone... In the cage. At this point, Charlotte is the one tucked away with her babies, so she's not present to rule over the group. Penny connects with Lil Bro, Melissa, Tybalt and Momma relatively easily... And then Charlotte came back! XD June 23rd, 2025! Penny, the cuddliest boy is so big! He's happy to play with hair, cuddle with anyone, but he claims his place of comfort as is his right! When Charlotte came back, he rose to the occasion. He's now the most connected cat, I think, which is very cool! No one is alone when Penny's around!

Ah, #night comes for us all once again.

In #Cattica, there are many #types to #pass the #time with; #today's bunch are #amazing #listeners! They'll help you #wind #down with your thoughts for a good night's #rest!

#catsofbluesky #Cattica #pics #fun #sleep #posts #bedtime #cats
Astor, piebald with black, is the type to happily curl up somewhere and sleep the day away. He does a great Brock impression, and he probably even has some wise thoughts for you! Melissa, ticked sic, thinks she's slick. She thought no one was watching. I was watching. And I took a picture! No-manners Melissa! (I love her sooooooooooo much my silly girl) There's a good chance she'll listen well, if you have skill in the art of... Scritches. Miso, diffuse orange dad of Ramen, will do all of the above. He might make you pancakes in the morning! This one's a dream daddy!! Really just a ball of love. Dixie, calico! If you don't mind, she'll just curl up right here and won't be a bother, no! She's just a baby, but she's mastered that purr already, so this one counts as therapy :)
