Solid reminder, Reggie. (Also, from that angle, he looks just like one of mine when he naps!)

That extends to board games too 🙂

Judgy bookshelf cat is scandalized by my weekend reading choices. #Caturday

Given that I’m too choked up to write anymore about this and it’s not really my story to tell… Cat pic?

Don’t give up, hug your loved ones, and don’t underestimate the capacity for kindness ❤️

Enjoying what’s left of #Caturday with his bedtime cartoons. (His third favorite viewing after Fish videos and the recent Dune movies.)

Pro: this marinara will ask about your day.
Con: it gets its feelings hurt very easily.

Me: This box is for stuff going to Goodwill, and you are not being donated. The box is not for you.

Geralt: How absolute dare you?! All boxes are for me.

But on the plus side, it’s almost the weekend. (TBH, the cats really need the downtime. As you can see, they’ve been working hard all week.)

So true! No one does cozy better than cats.

The cat’s diet has recently changed due to health reasons. He is less than thrilled with this turn of events.

Me this morning: We should get out of bed and do productive things.
Jaskier: Hard pass.

When the cats play, it often leads to furniture being knocked over and what sounds like yowls of the damned. I used to worry the downstairs neighbors would complain about the noise but now I think they’re too afraid of whatever demons it sounds like we’re summoning up here.
