I write horror, science fiction, and fantasy when I’m not curating my personal natural history museum or studying plants. I read a lot, I ride a bike. No AI.
Surgery day #2! It has been a hard season for this girl but we are lucky to have such love and support from our friends and family.

Respiratory polyps in kitties looks like a respiratory infection that doesn’t go away and they need a surgery to be removed.

I am on standby with Warm Blankies!

I met a friend in the garden and they serenaded me a love song that went, AAAAAAAH

I’ve been offline to focus on some things and want to share a word of hope in the hard times.

My kitty needs a second procedure and I have to borrow funds for it. I’m so worried.

I have two new jobs and have not worked a single shift after weeks of prep.

You’re not going through this alone.

The demise of my local corporate craft store that once brought me colorful inspiration has been replaced by this wonderful catalog. I go through it again and again when I need a mindful moment and I walk away excited about making something beautiful

Herrschners catalogs are free!

It’s the late 80s and I have warped into existence and find myself living down the street from a Taco Bell and guided by a father who is an Original Series superfan. I learned to fix engines before I could drive, true red shirt.

Today is a very special #Caturday! Evie had an urgent procedure removing a polyp that obstructed her breathing, she is now napping and doing so much better!

Below is an article about these polyps in cats, if you know a kitty with a respiratory problem it might be helpful

Our GoFund Me too! Thanks❤️‍🩹

The happy face of day 2 post-surgery! Her breathing is so much better and she’s eating without issues

She is making her little chirp-meows again for the first time in weeks!

The love and support we received has saved my little family and I will remember it always 💕

First medication done and we’re having coffee in the garden. I’m so grateful for the love and support Evie and I have gotten! Truly, life saving.

Her need for vet care spent the last of our resources at a time when my new job doesn’t start until school does.

New story coming! GoFund Me below!

Evie is home from surgery and recovering! She had a polyp removed and we are hoping that is it.

The vet reported she is indeed a very sweet girl!

Drained all of my resources to be able to have this done for her today and my new job starts with the school year, anything helps!

She’s all better now! I was worried and overwhelmed when it became apparent that my sweet Evie had a respiratory bug this week. Don’t worry, she’s had me on 24hr duty and a vet two miles away. Happy #Caturday with love from Evie!

I left the house yesterday for an inordinate amount of time, now this one is by my side all day today. Lots of love from Evie the cat! Happy #Caturday!

The cat furniture went unused so I started buying her human furniture. This is the Cat Chair. Happy #caturday!

The sound of crinkly paper bags and the sound of industrial construction are the same at 5am, but that face! How could I be mad.

Happy #Caturday with love from Evie cat.

This morning an exhausted bee was on the pavement, I gave her some honey water and after drinking most of it up she once again took flight!

We just watched each other and she let me get close to see that she didn’t have torn wings or anything. 🐝💕

Nothing beats the comfort of an old paper bag

Much love from Evie the cat this #Caturday!

With love from Evie in her sunbeam

My heart has longed for a sign of spring and I am pleased to announce the first crocuses of the season already have the hum of bees! 💐🐝💕

I’m giving everyone permission to snuggle teddy bears regardless of age or species. You are free to be cozy this #caturday!

I almost missed #caturday! Evie says goodnight to everybody
March 2, 2025 at 4:32 AM
This #Caturday I am expressing my gratitude for Evie and her endless support for my questionable taste in music, weird attachment style, and comfort watch of the same three tv shows for years. Evie, you are a treasure
