This is my first social media account. However, I've lurked extensively, and my FOMO would rear its head every time I saw a photo/video of someone ELSE’S cat/critter. Well, Bluesky seems the perfect (welcoming) place to start correcting that.

Warning: I’ve got over 40 YEARS of cat/critter photos!
I still have 11 (yes, really!) external hard drives to connect (they contain all my photos) and THEN I should be finished.

I’ve definitely missed all of y’all! 😿
Thank you for checking in! @catcarenetworkiowa.bsky.social @attyepi.bsky.social

Ugh. I’ve gone from Windows 10 to 11, and it’s fought back every step of the way. I have a ridiculous amount of hardware/software/apps that all needed to be customized… and some days it was easier to just put it off.
Sorry for the radio silence. My computer has been acting up and I think it’s getting ready to have a catastrophic failure. I’ve had to tiptoe around using it (therefore, no photo work… even this post took over an hour to finally get on line.)

Just a couple more days until I have my new set up… 🤞

It looks like Native American Seed seedsource.com carried it at one point. I've ordered from them many times. Maybe they'd know who carries it now?
I used to go twice a year (spring and fall.) Still great! I've got my first photo up.
Thank you! Although it's SOOO hard getting back into routines after a vacation. (whines the retired person 🙃)
My original intention of posting on Bluesky had been as "Proud Cat Parent." But, more and more, I'm being drawn into photography as art... which I've done since I first picked up a camera, just not with my cat photos.

Thanks for broadening my horizons even further!
Thank you!

Although, maybe, just maybe... there's a black and white version floating around that may make an appearance...😜

p.s. love the green heart! 😁
Yours truly on my trip to The Texas Hill Country. This is Wildseed Farms, outside Fredericksburg, where they grow wildflowers to harvest the seed and then sell (by the packet or the pound.)

Oh. My.

This is SPECTACULAR.

I hate to steal another artist’s work….. but I’m going to have to steal this idea…😜
I ADORE backlit photos. And photos with trees. And photos with curving roads.

Okay… I love everything about this photo! 😻
Thank you! I honestly had no clue it was going to turn out as well as it did! 😸
Thank you so much!

I’m finding more depth of meaning in cat photography than I ever imagined. Composition comes naturally to me, since I’ve been an artist my entire life… but I’m often astonished by the story that lies just below the surface of many of my photos…
I had planned on making this a Cats Noir entry, but I just love the green of the ivy too much! It was slightly out of focus, so I made it look like an old-fashioned, low-quality, drugstore photo print.

I think I nailed it!

Thank you!! It was WONDERFUL. Relaxing, exciting, invigorating… sometimes all at once! It was a car trip through The Texas Hill Country which I hadn’t done in 25 years. I took some friends with me and we had a blast. Pictures WILL be forthcoming. 😸
1/3 I’m baaack! And in typical cat fashion, they welcomed me home by:

I'm not officially here (online) right now (waaay behind prepping for my trip)... but O. M. G. ... thank you for that compliment! Made my Day!! 😻❤️😜

(again... shhh... not here)

(sneaks off to scrub litter boxes)
Okay... that's adorable... and hilarious... and perfect! 😻
Hmmm. Bats sleep during the day. Cats sleep during the day.

Coincidence? I think not! 🔎🦇🔎🐱
So they can ALL say theirs is the best! 😜😁
