Absolem (Solly) got a pre-op blood draw this morning in preparation for his neuter surgery in 2 weeks. The tech said he was super mellow, and he weighs 10 pounds.
I can't believe he's 6 months old!

I sympathize.
This is our 6 month old beastie, Solly, making sure we remember why we go to all the trouble.

Jedi, aka Bratface Girl, is ready for lunch.

Riff and Perchick, meet Absolem. Solly, for short.

It's chilly and rainy, so Absolem (Solly) is snuggling with me on the couch. He's 5 months old now and still a sweet little cuddle boy.

I watched a documentary on Ms. Hamer a year or two ago, and remembered them showing this monument to her.
An extremely impressive woman!

Absolem (Solly) has had a busy #Caturday and just needs a little peace and quiet.

I went to Art in the Park today and found treasures!

A matted 8x10 color print by Amy Kalimat, and a matted & framed 5x7 original by M. Scott Phifer.

I also found a couple of sweet little pottery items.

Art in the Park is at Sequiota Park in SE Springfield, MO, today and tomorrow.

We went to a reception last night at The Land of Dead Things. (Bass Pro)
Had to be 50 mounted, taxidermied animals hung around the room.
Much manly. So conservation.

Jedi sez, "Shut up and go back to sleep."

But I can't. I hafta pee.

I had to drive in midday traffic to take my husband across town to pick up his truck. Waaaaaay too many people out here. Time for Chinese take-out.

Absolem (Solly) is now 4 months old!
He had his final vaccinations and weighs 6 pounds.
He gets along well with Jedi (9,) and they play a LOT, but he's a bit too high-energy for Houdini (15.)
He's still sweet and cuddly, when he's not murdering his toys. 🐱

I got this postcard in today's mail. I know Betsy Fogle is awesome, and she'll probably get an avalanche of hate from the shitheads, so I decided to call the number and tell her how proud of her we are.

If anyone else would like to add to the atta-girls, please call and leave her a message. 🗣💙

The Husband Critter and I got our boosters on Wednesday, so we're both feeling a bit puny.
Absolem cheers us up.

Houdini loves your cat drawings.

Guess who discovered how to climb up to the catwalk!
Jedi has been the only cat using it for several years. (You can see where she rubs her face and head on the corner.)
Luckily, he also figured out how to climb back down. #Absolem

Absolem selects his target. He's 13 weeks old, now, and in his "everything must DIE!" stage.

I finished Rising Tide, about the 1927 Mississippi River flood. Since today marks 20 years since Katrina hit, I'm starting The Great Deluge.
