New portrait of me just dropped. I was a prompt in a game of Pictionary a few 6th graders played in class today. I love every bit of it except would like to clear the record - I never wear dresses or skirts. (The x on my mouth represents my mask).

Everyone should know how good my cat is about taking his inhaler. He comes to me, turns around, sits, and lets he hold it on his face for 10+ breaths. He even reminds me it’s time. He is such a good boy.

This kitten not only bites random parts of my body when I’m asleep, she brings in bugs to eat.

This little Oreo cookie has been a huge thorn in my cat’s side which caused him to develop physical/behavioral changes that scared us all the way to a $650 vet bill.
Here she is cuddling up to him (while he’s stoned). A short moment of peace.

Foster cat update. Today was her first full day in the common space. She played HARD and Dennis watched. Both are exhausted.

Only 9?! I started fostering a kitten 6 days ago and have as many names for her already. Chaos baby is my current fave.

How many boxes do you have for your cat at the moment? I have 4 boxes and they’re all in the same room! But I swear they’re all very different!

Foster kitten #1 has arrived! A girl named Bri. She’s bold and playful and climbs atop her cat tent. My resident cat Dennis is not pleased. He’s completely scared of her despite him being thrice her size. They’re staying in their designated rooms for at minimum 5 days.

Dennis pressed his “hmm?” button several times. When I asked him what he wanted he plopped onto the floor.
What could he possibly want?

Should I assume this means the dryer vent is being cleaned out too?](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:kvcmr6qc7tpdrgi6zzptneh3/bafkreiag65u2cek2vqai2pm6znzcventip6nnvxzzfbc5qvwhnfjsdkhiy@jpeg)

Later in the day, I checked my personal email. I guess my neighbors were concerned, too!
