20+ yr biotech atty at www.adkinscounsel.com, vaxxed and wearing a mask, and happily reacquainting myself with the 8-yr-old tree-climbing, horse-riding, fearless girl inside me. We were meant to walk one another home. You should run for something. #LawSky

The flavors! So good. Fresh pomegranate and rosewater juice, shish tawouk with pickled veg, grilled halloumi with olives and salad. Highly recommend. Takeaway from babaganouj restaurant in Kensington London. (My first week living in London. Yay!!)

JackJack decides to go in another direction and chooses to display his “meatloaf with handle” pose.
Chonky black and brown tabby looks like a loaf as he looks at the camera with bright eyes, enjoying his rainbow catnip toy

I sing Jack Jack Fever, ba ba ba, Jack Jack Fever, ba ba ba ba. (The tune is made up but somewhat reminiscent to Black Cat Fever.) And to Jacob: Jacob Jacob Jingleheimer Smith, that’s my name too, whenever we go out, the people always shout, there goes Jacob Jacob Jingleheimer Smith…

Thrilled that our pharmacy friends at QFC North Towne in Bellevue WA USA got their shipment of 3 boxes of #Nuvaxovid last night. I got my vax at noon today. They’ve also got Moderna and Pfizer if you prefer. (My BCBS insurance doesn’t include QFC.) #VaccinesSaveLives #COVID #Novavax

Oh to be a fast fast cat who, having finished a full set of zoomies at top speed, is studying the neighbors as they do their summer night things on their balconies #SummerCat #Blueskycats
Tabby cat named Jacob is sitting on a chair cushion near an open window and window seat and smirks at the camera and seems very pleased with himself for completing an amazingly fast set of zoomies

I love my crow. She spotted me reading in the park this evening, flew over, and sat with me for about 10 minutes. #Birds #Crows #Friends

JackJack after performing a new game he developed: scream at door until let onto deck; immediately run to second door and scream to be let back inside; have a snack. Voila! Washing up for a nap.
Happy brown and black tabby cat sitting on his snuggly pink blanket, washing up before a nap.

Befriend your local crows. They’re so smart and funny and like to keep you company while you are gardening. #Crows #Birdskye
Big black crow sits on front porch with me while I rearrange flowers in my pots.

Nice! I love my crow friends, too, and I especially like it when they keep my company as I putter in the yard or so outside chores.

Wishing everyone at least a short escape today from the madness. Jacob suggests a pillow fort.
Jacob is a tabby cat and this photo shows his happy and relaxed face from within a pillow fort on the couch.

Jacob just dove into the pillows, essentially asking for a pillow fort, so I made him one. He’s pretty happy. #Caturday
Brown and black tabby cat is very pleased to be in a pillow tunnel on the couch

After a busy day it warms my heart to get home and find the boys in a nap cuddle. They’re the sweetest.
I came home to find JackJack and Jacob, black and brown tabby cats who are brothers, in a nap cuddle. They are both in the same cat bed, lying stomach to stomach. JackJack has his right arm across Jacob’s shoulder, giving him a hug.

Highly recommend being snuggled by two cats. It’s a great way to start a Saturday. #Caturday
Me (a white woman with grey/med blonde hair and glasses) in bed with my two tabby house cats, JackJack and Jacob. Jacob sprawls horizontally across my chest and stretches one paw up to my neck and under my hair. JackJack leans into my shoulder, curling a paw around my bicep, and peering directly into the camera with bright eyes and happy whiskers.

There is no “the fireplace is too hot” for JackJack
Two tabby cats are happily napping by a fireplace. Jacob is in a cat bed, a reasonable distance away from the fireplace, while his brother, JackJack, is on a towel and is as close as he can get to the front of the fireplace without spontaneously combusting. Jacob’s front paw is outstretched to reach JackJack’s back foot. #CatsOfBlueSky

Things are bad, but here’s a photo of Jacob stretching all his toes towards the fireplace. Hoping you — and all Canadians and all Mexicans — have toasty toes tonight, too. #Caturday
Jacob, a black and brown tabby cat, is resting peacefully in his cat bed, near the fireplace, but has opted to lie in only the front half of the bed and he has all his feet hanging outside the front of the bed, reaching towards the fireplace. His face is relaxed and his eyes are mostly closed.

That sounds delicious! I’m taking a work break and enjoying a cuppa in my favorite mug with my two cats and I’ve clicked on the fire so we’re all toasty - so much to be grateful for.
One chonky tabby cat relaxing on his side on the light grey carpet in front of the lit fireplace, with his two favorite toys (wands) nearby, plus you can see his brother’s tail from the right-hand side. To the left is a dark brown coffee table with a Vanity Fair magazine and on top of the magazine is a light blue coffee mug filled with strong black tea with sugar and oat milk.

Especially when the world is in fire I look to my cats for inspiration, and they provide it. JackJack encourages all of us to soak up a bit of Seattle sunshine today if we can.

Gorgeous. My boys say hello and happy Caturday.
Two adult, male, brown and black tabby cats who are brothers, resting their shoulders against one another as they relax at the bottom of a bed, with a green, black and yellow toy snake filled with catnip squished between them. It’s a moment of calm but inevitably one cat will claim the snake for itself and the other cat will be pushed to the floor.

Jacob wishes he had geese to watch
A brown and black tabby cat named Jacob is outside on a sunny day laying upright on his stomach in the dirt in the garden surrounded by short bright green plants. Jacob is wearing a yellow, brown and black fabric vest with dog bones on it with a blue leash. His ears are slightly back and he is slightly annoyed because he doesn’t like the iPhone camera for some reason.

I love their ears! Jacob says hello.
