It seems the season is probably upon us, when even the boss lady feels like wrapping herself either as a present or to hide ... whichever camp you are in, wishing you a few nice days of rest #CatsOfMastodon#Caturday
In order to improve my posts, the humans have bought me some pencils. I'm not sure what to do with them yet, but I'm working on it. #CatsOfMastodon#WriterChat#Fedicat#Cat
I didn't toot this photo of Ginza last evening, but here it is now this morning. I was sitting cross legged on sidewalk and she was with her belly flat on the sidewalk. We were happily hanging out together. #CatsOfMastodon
Thinking about my buddy #TuxTheCat .
We used to spend some Saturday and Sunday mornings playing around, I was trying to get him used to being inside. I can only hope that he found some people.
He was the only cat that figured out what that scratcher was for.
The rescue I foster for did a big adoption event today at the local PetSmart, and we had a few people who had gotten their applications approved early and just needed to meet the kittens and decide which one to take home... and all three of my remaining L-litter babies were adopted! I'm ALL OUT OF BABIES!* 😭 #CatsOfMastodon#FosterKittens
*already have another litter lined up later this week
Being an adult means realizing that while you love cat-sitting, having an actual cat will not work for you, because OMG, a week and there is so much cat hair! Everywhere!
Seeing how unhappy #ApriCat has been, confined to my tiny apartment, longing for the outside, and spending most of the day alone (because I'm working), has made me rethink about how we approach pet ownership. Sometimes, animals are meant to wander, even if it means that their lives are shorter as a result.
What do you think?
Ps: Please no lectures about why we need to keep pets indoors 😅 I already know it!!
For my hackathon project I did try to make CFA (Cat Factor Authentication, using your cat's microchip as a second factor) a thing 😆 The project did win a prize, but more for the experimentation then the actual result https://wpengine.com/blog/hackathon-december-2023/
