Stray Cats of Athens

@straycatsofathens.bsky.social

(1/2) Cindy is a super talkative kitten so her foster (rightfully) immediately started to worry when Cindy wouldn't stop sleeping, became drowsy and quiet. It turned out she had a massive fever and needed to stay in the clinic. All help - small or big - towards the clinic stay needed 😿🚨🐈‍⬛

Cats of Yore

"Not on the list? Do you know who I am??" Photo from my collection, ca. 1970s.

A cat standing in the back window of a fancy black car, peering over the clipboard of a man in some kind of maintenance or security uniform. A cat or panther tattoo appears to be visible on the man’s upper arm peeking out from under the sleeve.

Some really incredibly cute kittens that haven’t gotten any attention at all are Mandarin, Tangerine, and Satsuma. While they can be shy, Mandarin & Tangerine love a lap cuddle and pets. Satsuma isn’t big on pets yet but loves to play & will take treats. crits4cats.petfinder.com

Beautiful & profound writing by @jonathancapehart.bsky.social about how valuable a shirt can be.

Jonathan Capehart @jonathancapehart.bsky.social · Feb 25

Black people make history in this country every day. Through loud protests and massive marches….But more often than not, Black history is made more quietly, by acts like wearing your late father’s shirt to work. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Opinion | A father’s work shirt and the arc of Black history

When a colleague told me he wears his father’s clothes as a way of keeping him close, I got chills.

One of the great unintended consequences stories of all time is American liberals buying cars that they thought would save the planet, thereby enriching the man who bought the presidency for Trump, the most environmentally dangerous president in history.

The Washington Post @washingtonpost.com · Feb 25

Tesla sales in Europe are down 45 percent from this time last year — a steep decline for an automaker long seen as the leader of the electric vehicle revolution. Experts say the decline could be caused by a variety of factors, including increased electric competition and backlash to CEO Elon Musk.
