working hard inspecting mum's "new" 1970s-vintage velvet jacket #friyay

cream tabby cat lying on a circa 1970's Loomtog multi-colored velvet jacket. I assume she's enjoying the smells (jacket was washed just after photos taken). and yeah, the cat is larger than average (her mum is smaller than average).

that time I stared off into the distance because this is the stupidest timeline #throwbackthursday #catsky #catsofbluesky

a cream tabby cat sits in her beige bed, chin up, staring off into the distance at something profound (or unbelievably stupid)

the past 2+ weeks she's insisted I get up ~3:45-4:30, I think the latest she's ever let me sleep is 5:45 (rarely). good thing I adore her

this innocent face refused to let mum sleep past 345am #meatloafmonday #catsky

cream tabby cat, in meatloaf form (front paws folded in front of her, tail wrapped around her body) looks sweet and innocent. in reality, she attempted to shred a wall tapestry, then kicked litter across the bathroom (didn't use the box, just kicked the litter), then threw her entire 13 pounds into an epic headbutt on her mum's recently vaccinated shoulder. at 3:45am.

had both yesterday. flu shot has (for me) zero side effects. covid vax kicked my butt, same as every other covid boost. ymmv (still happy and grateful to feel crappy for a day or so)

another awkward position (and still too warm for a box rather than my cardboard bed) #catboxsunday #catsky

cream tabby cat awkwardly lying on an oval cardboard scratcher bed: her tail hangs off the edge of the bed and forms an L-shape

bed malfunction this #caturday #catsky

a cream tabby cat, stretched out on an oval cardboard-scratcher bed. because this cat is weird and nonconforming, she's lying *crosswise*-- resulting in approximately 2/3 of her body not on the bed

v much looking forward to this; attempted to get jabbed yesterday at cvs in cambridge (!!) and they were all out of the covid vax. previous boosts have been rough rides, but grateful nonetheless

this is the *best* (non) litter litter-mat: soft and deep so litter isn't tracked into the house, can easily be shaken out/thrown in the wash, fun colors, inexpensive. get 3 and rotate.
