Got the urge to try weaving last week. It's fun! There's a few things I wish I'd done differently but I like the overall result, so I will definitely be revisiting this weird little minimalist penguin.

earlier this summer I started volunteering at a wildlife rehab facility. we wear ghillie suits with young impressionable birds or those that are getting too habituated. as you can imagine, this is pretty miserable in 100+ degree weather, but you do what you gotta do to keep these guys wild!

I know there's an abundance of cats out there who desperately need homes and all deserve the best possible lives. I'm doing what I can for these little guys. even if they aren't the cats for you, you can help us out by sharing!

Mattie, Bell, and Jet will be up to date on vaccines this week, and will be spayed/neutered in early August. they're all super sweet and curious, they love climbing the towers and running on the cat wheel, and have been really great about offering to play but respecting my older cats' boundaries.

Cosmo is a shorthair calico estimated to be just 1-2 years old. she's been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, de-wormed and flea-treated, and tested negative for FeLV and FIV. she's a little shy at first but quickly won over by food and loves napping within petting distance.

the kittens grew up so fast and Cosmo has adjusted really well to indoor life! it's been fun to have them around this summer and I love them a lot, but I already have three cats who are a bit less thrilled about their new roommates. so, it's time to find them new homes of their own.

mama cat, now named Cosmo, was a very pregnant stray in a neighborhood with a quickly growing cat population. I managed to befriend her in late April and soon had three adorable kittens and their very hungry mama in my house.
