Happy #caturday from Mavis and Fiona.
A photo from my POV in bed. Mavis, a long haired gray and white cat is laying on my legs. Across the room, Fiona, a long haired black and white cat is laying on a chair upholstered in a contemporary floral print. They are patiently waiting for a comrade to feed them breakfast.

A screenshot from the New York Times article linked in this comment. The text reads: The current proposal would require childless adults without disabilities who want Medicaid coverage to prove that they had worked, volunteered or attended school for 80 hours in the month before enrollment. But states could require that people work six months or even a year before becoming eligible for public benefits. Those who fail to meet the work requirement would also be blocked from receiving subsidies for private plans sold on the Obamacare marketplace, another new restriction in this version of the Republican plan. The legislation is unclear on how long the prohibition would last.

Happy #caturday y'all. We're coming up on a year together and Mavis cat is just now discovering laps. And that her human with dysautonomia is a better heat source than a heat vent. It's a good time for co-regulation among mammals.

Hey #Ithaca, I'm ISO a new #COVIDcautious and community-minded roommate to share my great 2 BR apartment in Fall Creek.

I'm a fan of clear communication, boundaries, personal responsibility, creativity, joy and my cats.

The apartment is great, and management is responsive.
Two gorgeous long haired cats look at the camera. Fiona, a black and white cat with a black heart on her nose and a black goatee, sits next to Mavis, a white and gray tiger cat who is lying down.

Happy #Caturday from Fiona. I don't know about you, but Caturday feels more important than ever after the firehose of this week.

I occasionally try to explain human trappings like politics to the #cats. They are often unimpressed, and think we make things more complicated than necessary.
Fiona, a bicolor black and white long haired cat with a black mask, nose and goatee sits pretty looking off to the side of the camera.

In case a cat would improve your day. Mavis is adorable.
Mavis, a small long-haired bicolor gray tabby cat, lies on her side asleep looking adorable and peaceful.

Good morning! Happy #Caturday from Mavis and Fiona.
Mavis and Fiona sit in parallel at the foot of my bed, both looking straight at the camera. They are long haired cats with similar markings, white chests, bellies and legs. The tops of their heads and their backs and tails are dark. Fiona, on the left, is black and white with a black goatee. Mavis, on the right, is gray tabby and white.

Fiona is very pretty. She does not consent to the touching.
This is about how close she will choose to get to me, while lounging in my bed with me most of the time.
It's been over 7 months since she came home to me and decided to live under my bed full time. So proud of her. ♥️
A very pretty black and white long haired cat stands on my crocheted blanket and looks over my knees at me. It's hard to see her gorgeous green eyes because of her black fur mask.

Welcome to #Caturday. My guides for the day are Fiona and Mavis. They are choosing naps this far.
Two long haired cats curled up asleep next to each other on a multicoloured variegated crocheted afghan in a bed. Fiona is on the left, a black and white long hair who finds you tolerable and curious as long as you stay at least 12" away. Mavis is on the right, a smaller gray and white long hair who would like pets and some play time thank you once she's awake.
