This is Stitch. As is evident from the photo, he has been up to absolutely nothing...

One of those rare days when two of my biggest passions (publication ethics and board games) collide. My copy of The Publish or Perish Game just arrived 🥳
#PublishOrPerish #BoardGames

It's #Caturday so here is a picture of Stitch carelessly snoozing. Hopefully these remote purrs bring you some much needed positive vibes to help withstand the insanity of the current hellscape.
Snoozing tabby and white cat snoozing on my blanket covered legs. He's folded himself in half and rests his head on a front paw that also tucks his tail. His other front paw is slightly stretched out and "making biscuits".

Ah, misinterpreting the paper again I see? Here, let me explain it again as it seems you may not have read it the first two times.
Screenshot of previous post by Dr. Maria Zalm stating that if image errors are found in 3 out of 100 articles, then it is correct to conclude that 3% of the articles present image errors, regardless of whether the three articles affected present only one error each or dozens of errors each.

This #Caturday, a blast from the past, back to the days when these two were still small enough to share a cat tree.

For today's #caturday, Stitch. The best office buddy I could wish for.

It's #Caturday! So here is a picture of Stitch. Despite being litter mates, he is nearly 3 times his sister's size.

It's Caturday, so here is a picture of our Lilo, who has claimed both my desk chair and my Oodie as her own.
A picture of a smallish black-and-white cat comfortably settled on an Oodie with cartoon elephant print, draped over a desk chair, green eyes staying out into the distance.
