Philly pals: someone in my neighborhood left this cat (male, young, neutered, skinny but otherwise seems healthy) in a crate outside for an indeterminate amount of time. We brought him in last night, but our cat is very much an only child. Please help me find him a home? Shelters are at capacity

Filtered photo of my cat Squeaky lying on top of her blanket, paws curled, eyes closed in simple bliss. Glitter text above her says “feliz viernes” and glitter text below her says “gracias a Dios”. The image has a small pastiche of romantic clip art framing the photo with a vaguely magical, Web 1.0 vibe all around

Yesterday I married my best friend in our living room and it was perfect 💖

I love you @almurph.bsky.social - forever and ever ✨
Alyce and Patty pop open a bottle of Prosecco in our kitchen. We’re both smiling in recently wedded bliss! Patty is wearing a white satin bow with a short veil adorned with rainbow pearls at the hem of the veil. They’re kneeling in front of a chair where Squeaks the cat is sitting on top of bundles of ribbons from our wedding day group craft! Our living room setup with chairs covered in various ribbons. There’s lit pink and white candlesticks all over the media console and the vibe is very warm and cozy Patty and Alyce sitting in the home office making silly faces while waiting to sign our marriage certificate

Great news, everyone: she
Squeaky the cat curled up into a teeny tiny ball in my lap, nestled into a Pendleton wool blanket. Her striped tail is curled around her little legs and her face is tipped up towards the camera, eyes closed in cozy bliss

Great news, everyone: she
Squeaky folded like a little pretzel, holding her legs with her front paws. She’s sitting in a blanket in between my crossed legs and I caught her licking her chops, little pink tongue out. Her ears are flat and sleepy. A flat-eared, sleepy Squeaky in my lap Squeaky napping in my lap earlier today, cheek against the blanket in my lap and paws curled up like a little baby Squeaky getting cheek scratches while sitting in my lap, wrapped up in her little pink knitted blankie. She’s leaning her head back and winking an eye up at me

I keep one of little miss Squeaky’s whiskers in the back of my clear phone case so I can have a little piece of her with me wherever I go
Squeaky looking over her shoulder wistfully Squeaky cuddled up in her favorite lounge chair, paws tucked in Squeaky getting chin scratchies

I now work for an org that provides tech services to frontline Dem campaigns. I’m also (famously) engaged to @almurph.bsky.social who I met on Tumblr a decade ago + we have a perfect little cat named Squeaks!

Ok that’s all byeeeeee

Here is princess Squeaky Louise, the most beautiful girl in Philadelphia
Squeaky lying on her back on the couch, her white belly illuminated by a ray of sunlight. She is a lynx-point Siamese cat. Squeaky snuggling a ball of yarn. She has her paw over the yarn and is actually sitting on a poly mailer. She has slightly crossed blue eyes and a speckled pink and black nose. A very cuddly Squeaky lounging in my arms while I sit at my desk. Her eyes are half-open but sleepy. Squeaky on the couch sitting on her butt with one leg out in front of her and the other above her head. She is licking her inner thigh.
