Space vampires?
A creepy space vampire with fangs and an epic unibrow means a blond woman in a metallic peach jumpsuit.

Most afternoons when I work from home.
A brown tabby with yellow green eyes, a white bib, and white mittens and socks stands on a mousepad in front of a computer monitor—staring at you intently.

Beatrice is concerned about this Ramona shaped lump.
There is a lump under the covers on a bed that is about the same size and shape of a 12 lb calico tabby. In loaf form next to the lump is a brown mackerel tabby with a white bib staring right at you.

You just died.

The 6th picture in your phone gallery is what killed you.

(Likewise.)
A brown mackerel tabby with yellow green eyes and a white bib stares at you intently while she stands on the back of a teal velvet couch while making biscuits with her front paws on a cream fuzzy blanket in a mint colored mesh basket.

In winter, a boule is preferred to a standard loaf.

The last meme I saved is my moral philosophy?

I have a quote from my grandmother on the wall in my home office, “You don’t have to tell everything you know.”
A screenshot of a newspaper headline that reads “We Should All Know Less About Each Other.”

I’m wrapping my day by burying my face in this tummy. Huff your tabby if you’ve got one!
A chonky brown tabby with a white tummy and white socks snoozes while sprawled on her back on a brown and blue cushion on a green chair, paws up and looking ridiculously relaxed.

But look at my tiny pots!
Two lopsided clay pots sit on a wooden board. One is about the height of a shot glass, the other a stout teacup. Both are freshly thrown and need trimming.

Send someone around to talk to Beatrice and Ramona once they’ve gotten through.
A brown tabby with a white bib and white socks sits on a cream and brown damask throw next to her sister, a tabby calico with a with a white stomach, chest and socks. They both stare at you intently, as if willing you to fetch them dinner immediately. The brown tabby in particular looks very reproachful.

Beatrice and Ramona endorse heating pads.
A mackerel tabby with white socks and a calico tabby (with an orange and white marking shaped like a ren faire turkey leg on her hip) lay sprawled and spooning on a heating pad covered by a damask patterned throw.

I also live with a Beatrice and Ramona!
A brown mackerel tabby cat with white paws sprawls over the edge of a shelf on a tall cat tree to reach down with one paw to a calico tabby with a white bib and arm who is looking up at her from below. Trouble is about to happen.

Looking through evergreen trees out to Battle Rock and Port Orford Cove. The skies are blue with a few little fluffy white clouds.

If you see this, quote with the energy you bring to BlueSky
A brown mackerel tabby with gold green eyes sits at the edge of a window open to an outdoor catio space—sitting safely inside while staring intently at two rude hummingbirds (not pictured) taunting her from outside on the other side of the catio chicken wire.

If you see this, repost with a vampire that is not Dracula.
Cover of the 1979 children’s book “Bunnicula: A Rabbit Tale of Mystery” by Deborah and James Howe. It features an illustration of a worried looking orange tabby peering at a red eyed white and black rabbit sitting on the paws of a shaggy dog.

Important part of cat office work.
Two cats with yellow green eyes look directly at you from stacked cubbies in a bookcase. On top: a striped calico with large tufted ears and a white bib. Below, her sister, a brown mackerel tabby, also with a white bib.

Ramona taking a shift on morning glaring, I will not get to kiss her head.
A calico tabby sits on the edge of a dresser, staring at you intently. Her sister is otherwise occupied keeping her eyes on crows outside the bedroom window.

Photographic evidence.
A brown tabby with a white chest and paws sits on the edge of a dresser, her tail half covers one front paw as she stares at you very intensely. She is waiting for you to get out of bed and kiss her right between the ears a few times before she will jump down and start yelling at you about breakfast.

They are Flow fans!
A calico tabby and a brown tabby sit side by side on the edge of a chaise. But you only see their backs and very alert ears because they’re intently watching an animated black cat with large yellow eyes on the deck of a sailboat on TV.

Morning tail curl

I acquired an arm mounted cat bed for my desk earlier this year from Ergopurrch. It has proved wildly popular.
A calico tabby with white paws and a brown tabby with white paws lay curled up together on a pillow in a light colored wood tray clamped to a desk at the end of a white metal swivel arm.
