Reposting with the picture of Lucy and Ricky looking for their home. Please share to help them find it! #LucyandRicky #ForeverHomeNeeded #Rescue #wobblycats #Connecticut #NewYork #kittens #cats
Two young kitties (under 1 year) are side by side, looking into the camera. One (Ricky) is a grey tabby cat with beautiful patterns. The other (Lucy) is mostly white with a grey tabby tail, and very light grey pattern around her ears and side of her head, with beautiful blue eyes.

Hi, it's me again

I have these calendars. They are so pretty. @megstampede.bsky.social made them. They have a bunch of animals on them, like crows and humpbacks and cuttlefish and salamanders.

Each month has facts about the animals AND actions you can take to help them

Get one at Squidfacts.net!

November is when you need to start planning how to protect your Yule Tree from cats. Don’t wait until you have already put your tree up and decorated it.

I may start a new thread on techniques to dissuade cat attacks on holiday decorations, although none of them actually work. #CatsHateChristmas
