The lighting in my parents bathroom is maybe a bit too good. I'd never seen that my corrugator muscles, some of the culprits that cause my migraine attacks, are hypertrophic and visible. Apparently I'm part Klingon 😂
I'm standing in front of a mirror using my phone to take a picture of myself. My fingers are doing a lot of EDS nonsense, hyperextending, etc, and the muscles above my eyebrows nearest to my nose are visible in two little lumps

He was so miserable at the shelter before I picked him up. I'm hoping that the shelter being a bit quieter over Thanksgiving week might mean staff and volunteers can spend a bit more time with him. He's a cat who desperately needs humans

I'm so sad that my bestest boy is probably going to have to go back to the shelter for a week while I travel for Thanksgiving. I guess a slightly spicy cat with FeLV might be a big ask for some temporary fosters, but he's truly the sweetest boy.
Black cat sitting in a low cardboard box in the sun. His collection of purple things, a notebook, a tiny kong toy, and a fuzzy purple ball. He is looking up into the camera and he's the handsomest boy

This dude is such a bad eater that the most consistent way to actually get him to eat his wet food is to give him a churu and then sneak his canned food under his nose right as he finishes his churu
Black cat standing over a blue placemat with black cats on it. A grey water dish is closest to the camera, a blue bowl half full of wet food is behind it, followed by a metal bowl of kibbles. A white porcelain pedestal dish is to the left of the kibbles and the cat is eating churu out of it. Black cat standing over a blue placemat with black cats on it.

I absolutely ruined this dude's day by blowdrying my hair for the first time since he's lived here. I'm attempting to apologize through snuggles and churu
Black cat curled up in front of a sliding glass door in the sun in a low cardboard box. There is a purple notebook that he put on the box in front of him. Not shown are the two purple toys he also keeps in the box, because color coordination is apparently important

I will never get over how this sweet boy was described as spicy by the shelter. He's been the sweetest baby since the day he came home with me.
Fostering is amazing, bc you can help animals go from unhappy in the shelter to thriving and ready for adoption

I sat down to do some paper crosswords, so of course Mr NotALapCat decided to get all cuddly

Our foster cat has claimed the Pollock Executive Chair as his own. I'm glad it's leather, bc him scratching upholstery on one would be heartbreaking

Cool, I love living under a fascist regime and wondering what new attrocities they're planning

Jasper cat was a yarn aficionado. Here he is stopping my husband from weaving, but his true joy was huffing any camelid fiber and raw fleece of any kind.
His biggest dream was to be allowed to Scrooge McDuck in his preferred fibers

So apparently it had to get marginally chillier and suddenly he's a lap cat

I wish he was even half as excited about his own food as he is about any human food

This criminal knocked the churu tub off the counter and was completed befuddled that the tubes didn't burst open for him on impact with the floor

Foster kitty Jasper just learned it's Black Cat Appreciation Day and he wants to know why you're not appreciating him yet

It's black cat appreciation day, so here's a pic of the foster boy and his beloved air purifier

Nothing makes me happier than a foster cat who was previously miserable in the shelter being a happy relaxed dude in my house

Lol, it would be great if she'd changed her name to be the same as a dinosaur. Here are the Sues together

I didn't know he was there until I was within petting distance. He then petted me when I took a break from petting him.

Yesterday would've been my grey and white boy's birthday, so it feels right to be getting further in planning a memorial kitty for him too.
We only got to be his people for 2.5 years and we're definitely not over his loss 8 months on
Grey and white cat lying down and looking into the camera. His upper lip is stuck on his lower canines, making him look supremely goofy. He has a pink nose with a black splotch and majestically long white whiskers
