I am having so much fun with the @birdietam.art advent calendar - haul so far - 2 pairs of socks, 1 beanie hat, a bag clip and some cute cat magnets. Amazing value and I look forward to every morning. Oh and beautifully packaged too! Thank you Birdie ❤️
Black beanie style hat, with embroidered bright orange tiger on the front, surrounded by six stars.

From Patrick McDonnell’s daily Mutts cartoon, which made me smile but made me a little sad too.

Illustration of little black cat with big round eyes, against a green and purple background. Above the cat is the phrase “I am your little reminder that you’ve made it through tough days before.” The cat is saying “you got this!”. Illustration by @purrinink

Thank you @birdietam.art - my advent calendar arrived safely in the UK this morning and I’m very excited to start unwrapping in December (my mum was so excited she snuck a sneak peek into number 16 🎄🤶

First #BlossomWatch in my garden is my fabulous peach tree
Skinny tree in my garden at dusk - no leaves but covered in bright, dark pink blossoms. There are a few bright yellow and orange daffodils on the ground beneath the tree, which is standing against a brick wall

My Zebedee has been gone 14 years this month. He was the bounciest boy (and the longest as this picture shows)
A brown tabby cat, stretched out to nearly full length on a shelf in a catio. You can see sunny gardens behind him. He is looking away from the camera to the right, showing off a majestic profile. He is the best boy and knows it

Hamish (ginger) and Luka (voidiest of voids) both doing Advanced Loaf
A ginger cat with a white moustache and bib, with one white paw, sitting comfortably with all his feet tucked under him, apart from that one white paw A black cat sitting with all his paws tucked under his body, perched precariously on top of an Eeyore cushion. A stuffed dog toy on a pillow behind him seems to be balanced on his head

Post a pic you took to add some calm to the timeline
Picture taken at Tulum, Mexico. The sea is clear , in shades of turquoise, green and blue. The coastline is rocky and covered in green and brown palm trees. The sky is a bright blue with tiny fluffy white clouds. There are no people, just beautiful, peaceful nature

This kitty nabbed some Serrano ham from Fortnums and is now feeling v smug about his life

If you see this post or quote, repost a #sunrise or #sunset (this is St Lucia, September 2022)
A photograph of a sunset in St Lucia. There are dark triangular sun parasols in the foreground, behind which you can see a silvery sea. The light blue-grey sky has fluffy dark clouds, piling up on the horizon and shot through with colours of fire - red, orange and yellow.

Hamish, a ginger cat who is not grateful that I would t let him go back out in the peeing down rain. #SNELovesPets
A sad looking ginger cat, with a white moustache and whiskers. His ears are pushed back and he is resting his chin on the edge of a grey fur bed. He is warm and dry, but sulking because he wants to be out in the cold and wet.

This is Hamish. This is the face of a cat who has today suffered the ultimate betrayal (early morning vet trip for vaccinations), and exacted the ultimate revenge (peed and pooped in his carrier on the way to the vet). Hamish did not apologise to the vet nurse trainee who had to clean him up either
A ginger tabby cat with white bib, paws and moustache who is defiant in the face of the many indignities he has suffered today. Also he has not been fed, as evidenced by the demonstrably empty bowl behind him.

The ginger one pretending butter wouldn’t melt, and the black one, making a mockery of my failure to use the treadmill on the walking desk
A ginger cat with a pink nose and white chin and whiskers, pretending to be asleep on a silver blanket. His ears are upright and alert; he is clearly plotting something A black cat, sitting in the loaf position with all his little paws tucked under his body, is perched on the end of a treadmill. The legs of the person who is standing on, but not actively using, the treadmill can also be seen.

Total innocent cat who did not push his brother out of the way for dinner, treats *and* first dibs at the water fountain #re-verification #ProofOfCat
Ginger and white cat who is peering suspiciously just beyond the camera, having realised that treats are not on offer

I was introduced to the Bahama Mama in Mexico recently. ++ can recommend. drinkoteket.com/wp-content/u...
Pink frozen cocktail in a tall rounded glass, plus maraschino cherry on top and wedge of pineapple wedged on the rim of the glass because is it even a proper cocktail without a maraschino cherry on top and a wedge of pineapple wedges on the rim of the glass?

Apparently post 1 has to be a cat so here’s my #ProofOfCat @garius.bsky.social
Dapper ginger cat with his tracker collar on display sits at the top of the steps on the new patio Black cat who is apparently at least 85% leg relaxes on the back of the sofa, not a care in the world
