The moment Jordy jumped from out of under the bedspread and frightened our scaredydog Theo

(bedroom successfully painted!)
Photo of a bedroom in several hues of blue, with a blurry black-and-white dog staring nervously at a brown tabby cat emerging unexpectedly from under the bedspread. In the shadows, a fluffy gray cat oversees the sordid scene. Very blurry photo of the same scene with the dog dashing away toward the door, scared out of his senses.

Catunday
A fluffy gray cat sits with her floofy tail hanging down on the top shelf of a gray cat tree, next to a dilute calico curled in a ball on that same shelf. A large tabby cat lies half-hanging out of a round cat bed piled on a gray sofa. His eyes are super wide in play mode.

Turkey Day photo dump
A large brown tabby cat sits on a kitchen chair. The table is set up with a tablet watching someone stream video games, a wireless keyboard, and an early Thanksgiving plate of food. The same large brown tabby cat lays on a bed. He is almost the same size as the black-and-white Pit mix dog behind him. A knitted Mega Man cap is resting on a stool at the foot of the bed. Smight, a tall white man in a blue shirt, works at his streaming computer. The same large brown tabby cat is on his lap. The keyboard, soundboard and stream deck all shine in a rainbow of colors. A custom Arcade Pit rug rests at his feet. clericatl, a fat white woman with glasses and short brown hair, takes a selfie at the same streaming computer with a silly look on her face, staring at the microphone.

Oh. Oh God. Retail workers, I am so sorry.
Google search for a product nearby, stating "before heading to a store, Google can call a few nearby stores to confirm pricing and availability."

alert alert! double decker cats
Two cats sit on a cozy office sofa. A small, round dilute calico cuddles with a blanket on the seat, while above her a large brown tabby loafs on the couch arm.

I couldn't find the post but I did remember this badass picture of me with one of the clinical trial pills.

A young adult with long, wavy, stringy brown hair is positioned over a plate containing a single pill, which she pretends to cut with a fork and knife. She is wearing a Threadless shirt that reads "this was supposed to be the future"

I was writing letters to the editor about this 20 years ago
Treatment on the right trail. Re: "On Pain's Trail" (Aug 22): I am a 19-year-old sufferer of fibromyalgia. Not always able to do my else, I have spent a lot of my time researching fibromyalgia and many of the posited theories and potential treatments for it. Unfortunately, I find an inordinate amount of attention being focused on rather unpromising theories, and treatments whose effects seem to amoutn to the placebo effect. So many sufferers are in such poor physical states and so desperate that they are vulnerable to being misled by people who have misguided ideas about the condition. What I pieced together as the most legitimate explanation for the condition is exactly what you highlighted in your article - central sensitization, the amplification of feelings of pain by the central nervous system. It heartens me to see the most promising theory finally being given the attention it deserves, as well as seeing so many new drogs that are offering the promise of real improvement in pain for those who suffer from this often-debilitating condition, rather than the hopeful-but-empty promises of so many of the former treatments.

he doesn't know I might be replacing him
A large tabby cat cuddles in the lap of the photo taker. The room is lit in blue hues, and my hand holds a tablet on the cats torso displaying an Amazon listing for a bed desk/table.

Curious: If you hold your cat's tail and offer the tip to their nose, do they lick their tail tip?

Mine always have, but other cats I live with don't. I'm just curious if this is something I unwittingly teach my cats from kittenhood haha

Jordy #MooseCat was crying at Chloe #CloudCat in this pose, which is funny because he has such a pitifully meek meow. #PetCrew

I love hedgehogs

... Not these ones, though.
Photo of fall decor items, including some normal fixes and hedgehogs holding fall flowers. But 3 of them have extremely long dangly legs with human ish feet on them?

You can amuse a kitten by giving it a piece of trash.

might make a couple small tweaks but the front side is done. the back side will be made in the spirit-world blues and purples, and they will be stitched together as a front-to-back reversible wall hanging!
