Anyone else grow up in a family that put the props in malapropism? Growing up with the family vernacular, it sometimes took years to learn what something was really called. Here, then, is a nice photo of a College Squirrel. πΏοΈ π©βππ€

This was useful, thank you. I have a large master bathroom that Iβll use initially for the new cat with a new bed, cat tree, and litter box. Bought the feliway diffusers and have a baby gate to put up when we get to that step. My boys are pretty mellow and I think dadβs cat is as well π€π»

Dad passed away at home with family beside him. It was truly a blessing to be able to see him on his way. (I will be adding his cat to my household, so any suggestions on easing the way between my two and his cat appreciated!)
