The stockings & magic Santa key are at cat level. Santa fills the stockings here.

The tree is up and all presents wrapped.

Flower will resume position as Senior Santa Tracker tomorrow with the Advent calendar. #Hedgewatch
There are 3 red stockings. The one on the left is bigger with a golden paw print on it. Simon’s is in the middle with his name on it. Jolene’s is on the right with her name on it. The magic Santa key is on the far right. A wider view of the 3. Christmas stockings showing they are at cat level next to Flower’s box. To the left are the pet steps in front of the window. A decorated Christmas tree. There is a reusable bag full of wrapped presents to the right. Flower is a black and white cat. She is sleeping on a green square cat bed under an advent calendar.

Simon would like to thank our friends Tia & Phoebe for our 1st Christmas card at our new house. @tia-phoebe.bsky.social

It arrived a few weeks ago, but I didn’t have strings up yet to hang it.

We are thankful for our friends.
Simon is a black and white cat. He is loafing on the cat tree. There is a Christmas card in front of him. The next photo is a close up of the card with that text. A Merry Christmas card showing 2 beautiful cats with Santa hats near a Christmas tree.

I did put the advent calendar near Flower since she is our Senior Santa Tracker #Hedgewatch. She liked watching NORAD last year on the laptop.

All stockings & Santa’s magic key are at cat level. Santa fills the stockings in our house.
Flower is a black and white cat. She is laying by on a green square cat bed. There is an advent calendar on the wall behind her.

They are durable and well loved. Jude 🌈. Would really beat them up. Thankfully, we have 3. (Everyone gets the same, so there is no arguing 😂).

Hope you are ok. We like seeing you.

Here is Flower wagging her tail for you. She had been playing with the rainbow behind me when I was working. I was on a call and could not video her playing, but did get her tail wag before she left to use the ramp to go back to the bed.

Jolene ready for coworker duty for #friyay closing her eyes so she doesn’t see the snow.

I did get an electric shovel (snowblower weighs more than me & I can’t handle one), but we may have too much snow for it. 😭

No one will help even if I pay them. (No one answers their phone or calls back.)
Jolene is an orange and white car. She is laying in a round leopard print cat bed with a pink crocheted blanket on it. Her eyes are closed.

I am using my soft fabric tape measure to measure Flower.

(Yes, I put it against Jolene for the color contrast.)

The cats get scared if I bring out the “construction” type tape measure. Maybe bc I kept using it to measure everything in the old house to be sure it would fit in the moving truck.

Flower is playing with toys in the new house. She didn’t play in the old house.

We are thankful for the help we had in getting out of there & into safe housing.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Jolene does not want to get out of the bed for #wontlookwednesday .

Have a great day.
Joleen is an orange and white cat. She is laying in a human bed with blankets on her. We see her head and her arms above the covers. She was sleeping but has one eye slightly open to see what I’m doing.

This was a few weeks ago.

I’m hoping the weather report is wrong or that they plow good. We have an appointment early next week.

Simon is here for #tuxietuesday.

He was coming down from on top of the refrigerator. I just thought it was a cool photo.

Have a great day.

Your annual reminder that the Butterball Hotline is available November & December for all your turkey questions.

Is your bird thawing for Thursday?

They were very helpful to me the one year I got so frustrated I almost threw the bird in the snowbank. (Now I only make what fits in my crockpot.)
A photo of the Butterball Hotline contact in my phone. Their number is 800-288-8372.

#catchatbookclub blind date with a book. Not sure if I’m ready for this type of book, but it’s ok so far. It’s been a busy month. We will see if I finish it before it’s due back to the library. It won’t bother me either way.
Flower is a black and white cat. She is on a green square cat bed next to a book. The book is The Bad Weather Friend by Dean Koontz.

Thank you so much! We would love to ride in the train. We love trains. It was the train hats that caught our attention for #Hedgewatch

I want to thank everyone who helped with the move and with gift cards.

We used the emergency wagon supplies for the move (what went in my trunk when we fled old house).

I replenished the emergency wagon, the blizzard bag & our shelter in place supplies for winter (all upstairs).

Thank you.
A red wagon filled with food, water and other emergency supplies. You can see a collapsible water bucket, a black backpack, a tan canvas bag, and some travel size cat pans.

How Jolene plans to spend #Caturday.

Happy weekend.

(That is not a real candle. It has batteries that makes it glow. I’m not lighting anything on fire after what we lived through.)

#cats #CatsOfBluesky #gato
Jolene is an orange and white cat. She is curled up sleeping on a cream colored blanket. There is a cream colored battery operated candle on the table in front of her. The lighting is soft.

This was in my memories from last year:

left photo - Flower in the dog cage in the basement at the old house in medical quarantine last year after she was trapped.

Right: beloved family member today in the new house on a cat bed on the bed.
A photo of a black and white cat in a dog cage. There are food and water dishes. She is standing up looking off to the side. The caption says your memories are worth celebrating. Flower is a black and white cat. She is on a square green cat bed on top of the big bed. She is laying on her side with her arms and legs stretched out. She is looking at the camera sleepily.

If anyone wants Kind Masks, I have a discount code for 10% off. Just DM me.

They came from Canada & shipped to USA surprisingly fast.

I love the colors, but do not get a good seal with them (my face is very small - I even order small size), so am using them for outside/lower risk situations.

Flower is ok with Jolene and Simon as long as they don’t get close to her and it is not breakfast time.

To be honest, I don’t think Flower saw Jolene in the cat tent when she walked by her here for #ThrowbackThursday .

She rubbed on the toy box.
#cats #CatsOfBluesky #gato
Jolene is an orange and white cat. She is inside a triangle cat tent with pink and red hearts on it. To the right of the cat tent is Flower. Flower is a black and white cat. She is walking towards a red box full of cat toys.
