Everyone say Happy Birthday to Herbie, who is six today! Recently diagnosed with epilepsy and "middle age" but it won't keep him down!

Be careful out there! Don't let pyramid head get you! D:

I have spent my whole first day off on the balcony in a light breeze with the pets. I ate a big cinnamon bun with coffee.
We are at a 10 out of 10 so far!

2 days of freedom, then he broke the most important rule (do not scratch your face until it bleeds) so he's back in the cone.
Pls keep Frankie in your thoughts.😔

Frankie loses all strong independent cat when he is in the cone. Sitting on the couch? It's time to hold Frankie like a little baby. Laying in bed? Frankie time. Relaxed in your office chair? Frankie o'clock. Stand in one place too long? It's Frankie-thirty! I have nearly been smothered 3 times.

It's the time of day where Frankie realises I have cruelly trapped him in his favorite place in the world for 10 whole minutes so my wife can give the other cats their wet food, which he is disastrously allergic to. He falls for this every night. The call of the balcony is too strong.

Herb likes to hold on to these treats and be a weird possessive little gremlin over them. This time he did it ALL NIGHT because of you can't gremlin in your sleep are you even living that weirdo life?

I am now pleading with him to actually eat the thing before we go to pick up the in laws.

Lately my one-eyed cat has started sitting here and staring/dissociating at the wall. He's also been hiding less. I think this is his way of being with the family without getting overstimulated. I get it, we're a lot.

Clocking in for my Sunday shift at the Holding Frankie Like a Sweet Baby Boy Factory.

Without downloading any new pictures, where are you mentally?

Hello my name is Alex and I am making my 2nd emergency vet visit in as many weeks because one of my pets is Too Stupid To Live.
He looks curiously thoughtful in this pic (pre latest injury because it's gnarly) for someone who does not have one thought on his head.

MENSA cat's more comfortable fabric cone came in the mail and he immediately clawed his own face so GUESS WHOS BACK IN THE BAD PLASTIC ONE. Comfort is for people who can be TRUSTED WITH A FACE I guess

Ok so leftover weekend stresses are resolving, my wife might have a job! I emailed a lawyer! And although he is still coned, the little guy's lumps are less lumpy and more bumpy! Hey way to get it together team!

Had to go to the vet last night because a certain middle aged man threw his back out and was in enough pain to refuse cheese. I knew it was probably a pulled muscle but the cheese refusal made me think he might be dying 🤷
He's feeling better but I'm not.🥲

What I thought was terrible cat acne is in fact another allergy skin reaction so Frankie's back on the prednisone and there's no way for me to creatively bandage his lip so he won't bother at it so pray for us🫠

I sometimes leave little lines and notes for myself if they get stuck in my head and I'm not ready for a whole poem. Idk wtf this one from last night is. I don't really like chicken wings, and the on Friday makes me question whether I was trying to poem or trying to schedule something..?

Had a few awkward chats lately when I tell people my wife recently moved from the US. They go "Wow, she must be relieved to be here!" And I have to gently remind them that everyone she's ever loved is still there. Not much relief.
This one was written election night but it's still fresh.

Here's how Frankie prefers to watch Lexi crochet. One paw barely touching. Wanting. Listening to the intrusive thoughts that say it is evil for mother to play with string and not include Frankie, but never obeying them. He is a Good Boy.

Frankie takes pug maintenance very seriously.

Some side-eye for photographing Herb's Luxery Gaming Time.

Drawing people is the thing I most want to do and the thing I find hardest but I finished one! Featuring a phrase from Twin Peaks that's just on my mind lately for reasons. #ArtAdventCalendar day 7

Sleepy for now but with twice the steroids for his allergies (because he is twice the cat) Frankie is juicing. He has eaten half his weight in kibbles and zoomed around in the snow on the balcony for 45 minutes since we woke up.

These guys turned out simple but cute, which is what I was going for. Success! #ArtAdventCalendar Day 6
