I genuinely don't know how this started, but I absolutely love it 🐈‍⬛
A screenshot of an email from an unidentified student. The text says, "additionally, i heard through the grapevine that students are sending you cat photos, so also attached are some from me."

Behold my void, Mira, in her fishy bed
An all-black cat is laying inside of a cream-colored, plush, fish-shaped cat bed. The fish’s mouth is huge and what provides the opening into the dome-shaped bed. The shadows inside the bed make the cat blend in with the darkness, but two large, round, yellow eyes are visible, looking right at the camera. The cat’s expression is hard to read, but she looks curious and possibly amused or playful.

A student just gave me the best gift and I will treasure it forever 😭🤍
A shiny and new white coffee mug sits on an ocean blue desk mat. The mug has black writing on it that says, “Ain’t no party like a fricative party ‘cuz a fricative party don’t stop.” There is also a beautiful floral embellishment on the mug with shades of pink, green, blue, and yellow.

We recently got a bird feeder. Best idea ever — we’re feeding the birds, providing endless entertainment for our cats, *and* getting bonus entertainment for us as the cats sit glued to the window going ekekek
This is a picture of three fully-grown cats, sitting in a triangle, with a small, pink, wooden bird-feeder in the middle. In the right corner, a gray tabby is laying on the floor, trying to sniff the feeder. In the left corner a tortie is sitting down, and at the triangle tip nearest the camera is an all-black cat, laying facing the feeder. All seem very enthralled with this new object.
