Cats, probably only cats, maybe World of Warcraft, but most likely just cats, no politics. Filling my timeline with cats and whimsy.

We have a lot of new friends so we thought we’d reintroduce ourselves. Hobbes is orange and stripy and loves crimes. Patches is splotchy and also Queen of Everything. Obi Wan is grey, he was born a grumpy old man, and has only grown grumpier in his old age. Our mom does typing.

An orange tabby cat, a muted calico cat, and a grey shorthair cat curled on a green sofa. They have realized their assistant is awake and are about to swarm her for food.

Thank you, I’m a dilute calico and I’m definitely as soft as I look!

The starfish story. Most rescuers hold this story dear to their hearts.We know we can’t save all,so we do what we can, one at a time, because to the ones we save, it matters to them. When I have a long term foster, I try to help others in different ways. Meet Ned. Helped connect him to WIN. #cats

“Self-care is giving the world the best of you, instead of what’s left of you.” Katie Reed

Putting yourself first doesn’t mean you’re not kind. It means you’re included in the kindness too.

We made an adorable line for mom, then we wouldn’t let her take our picture! 😸😸😸

(I’m just glad you’re learning to share the couch.)

💖Iris shows off her long whiskers & beautiful tabby stripes!💖
She's a sweetheart - a mellow girl who adores being petted, and will roll over for belly rubs.

Dilute calico in loaf position sitting in the photographer’s lap. Her eyes are half closed and it makes her look disapproving. She’s not by the way, she always looks like that.

The power of on-screen representation 😻🐈‍⬛

Image of the black cat from Flow next to a photo of an adorable black cat tilting its head curiously at the camera. Text reads, "The global success of Academy Award-winning animation Flow has helped to increase the adoption rate of black cats." Not attributed but I fact checked it.

Jimson is healing well and might be able to get his stitches out mid-next week. He is turning out to be tame and even chatty, and once he is all fixed up, will be looking for a home of his own.

Jimson, a grey and white cat with round tomcat cheeks and a cute grey “reverse stripe” down his nose.
