The universal cat distribution system™️ works in mysterious ways…

It’s #NationalPetDay! Shout out to the 4 reasons I’m still clinging to my sanity! I’d be lost without them.

Niles, Maris, Arnie, & Fritz—you have my whole heart.

Happy #FritzyFriday! Fritz encourages you take a short break from doomscrolling, drink some water, and get some fresh air.

Also, #CallCongress!
