This is a worse crime than all that shit Anakin did
An ad for Balder Electric Razors. There is a small image of Chewbacca from Star Wars in the upper left hand corner labeled "BEFORE" and the main image is of a hairless creature with vaguely wookiee-ish features (a slight muzzle with sharp teeth slightly visible through the open mouth, and small ears flat against its head.) It is also wearing Chewbacca's bandolier and holding an electric razor. Text at the top reads "THE BALDER SHAVE" with text at the bottom declaring "SMOOTHER THAN A WOOKIEE!"

Please look at this precious flower arrangement my brother's family sent me

A fluffy black cat with a white nose and green eyes is tucked into a cardboard box that just fits him. One flap is folded down in front of him and he is peeking over it, up at the camera.

Zelda has now gained enough weight to develop a primordial pouch. Please congratulate her
A side view of a brown tabby cat with white paws and white on her chest and neck. She is just the right amount of plump. A side view of a brown tabby cat with white paws, with her head out of frame. The pudge of a small primordial pouch is just visible on her lower belly.

Bonus cameo from said Resident Asshole
A blurry photo of a black cat standing on a wooden table, but it is cropped and zoomed in to show the blurry face of a brown tabby with white patches on her face and chest peeking on from the bottom left corner of the photo.

Please look at my son Paterson. It is our 7th Paterversary today.

Zelda likes Dina's big, plush dog bed so much, so we got another, smaller one just like it. As you can see, it is working out just as we'd hoped.
A very small brown tabby cat is sleeping curled up in a very big, plush pet bed. Directly next to this, a German shepherd dog is squeezed precariously atop a much smaller matching plush pet bed.

Unfortunately, my beloved sibling and housemate Jess absolutely LOVES chili. And in this one regard we are painfully incompatible as human beings. I'll eat it when they make it, because I'm not an asshole, but it's like...
A cartoon image of a mildly disgruntled-looking young white man sitting at a table with a plate of food, raising a spoon to his mouth. There is a bright, shining cross on the wall to his right, and he has a speech bubble which reads "This tastes terrible, Lord, but I'll eat it for you." The caption on the bottom reads "sacrifices."

Look at my son.

Fluffy bowling ball with a head and a tail

How
A young brown tabby cat with white on the tors if her front paws is laying on a large, fluggy dog bed. Her back and front paws are stretched out as long as she can get them so she extends almost across the entire bed, and she is asleep with her head resting on her extended arms.

Yesterday was Black Cat Appreciation Day and I forgot to post pictures of my son.

(I could not get him to be still for even a moment. He was very aggressive doing his "pets dance" at me, so they are all a little blurry.)

An only slightly blurry photo of a black cat with gold colored eyes sitting on a folded blanket, staring just to the left of the camera. He looks even more annoyed now.

Moxie won't eat.

Usually, in my experience with older cats, that's the beginning of the end, if not the end itself.

She has a vet appointment Tuesday, and we'll see what they say.

This summer has been such a horrible, busy, stressful slog. I'm so fucking tired.

Anyway, here's Kevin. Reason enough to keep on living.

Zelda finally had her spay and I brought her home today.

There's something special about finding a tiny, half-starved predator outside and feeding her and earning her trust to the point where she wants to lay on you to keep her warm and safe when she's recovering from a surgery.

I have contacted the animal shelter and explained the situation with Zelda, including a photo of her incision-free belly (see below for cute reasons) and they agree a mistake was made and will spay her free of charge. Unfortunately, their earliest appointment is July 23rd

Zelda sounds ASMR

Zelda is getting along GREAT with Dina, btw.

Zelda is exploring the house and got up on top of the bookshelf.

(Gibson had to go check it out after she left to make sure she didn't mess up the vibes)

Tentatively, new kitty's name is Zelda

I was looking into getting something like this, but fucksake they're expensive and 1: I cannot afford to get even one of them, let alone 4 (one for each cat). 2: I'm not even sure it would work how I want it to. It might scare them too much to eat from it.
A screenshot from the Chewy website for a product called "Petlibro One RFID Automatic Cat Feeder with Collar Tag, 3-L, Coffee, 2 count." The listing displays a picture of two of the units sitting side-by-side next to an image of two collars with ID chips set in them and a cell phone displaying the associated app. The product is listed for $269.99 but is on sale for $242.99.

Friends, I am about 85% sure I have found Miss Mama listed for adoption at the local shelter
