We didn’t need to spend money for this baby. He’s just our land bred #appalachianforestcat . #iggygoespop #catsofbsky #catsofbluesky

Every time someone brings up the bathroom issue 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼. Also, trans people are not the issue, but they won’t bother to acknowledge the actual SA statistics.

Update on the duo (Selina/Iggy). She hates him with a burning passion. He wants to play chase her and sniff her gorgeous tail. He is relentless. She’s letting him chill closer to her as long as he doesn’t look, breathe, or move in her general direction. #calico #gingercat #cats #catsofbsky

I’m going to just leave this page from the graphic adaptation of Lies My Teacher Told Me by James W. Loewen (graphic: Nate Powell) here. If you haven’t read the long form book or the graphic adaptation, I suggest it. Much of it I knew thanks to other writers, but timely. #sameasiteverwas

This apparently happened in my county, at a place in our immediate area, that we frequent. It’s a small hole-in-the-wall family-owned Greek/American fare place in a super rural area. It’s a very familiar place (not that THAT makes a difference). #abolishice #acab #swva

Selina has officially become the old lady of the house. This was Patsy’s bed for many years. No other cat would touch it. After we lost Patsy, I washed her beds. Selina is finally using it… in the same spot Patsy used to sleep. 😭 #catsofbluesky #calico #oldladycat #meow

First attempt at a paper mache mask for the upcoming local Procession of Appalachian Species event. Bobcat ear tufts will be added soon. #papiermache #papermache #appalachia #bobcat

We have testing that occurs right over our house in the spring and summer. It basically sounds like Han Solo is going apeshit right above us. Also, this is MUCH louder than it is on the video. It shakes the house, sometimes. It’s minimal, so not super annoying, but visitors are always 😳. #swva

After snapping at me like a snapping turtle and scratching my hand, she is peacefully sleeping. It’s been a #Pazuzu morning, so far. She woke up and chose violence. (In actuality, I think she has a sour tummy and needs the rest). #calico #calicosofbsky #selinabean #cats

Iggy is the sweetest. Somehow we keep getting the sweetest orange based cats that show up at our door. Not the sharpest tack (orange), but he makes up in loves. He also tongue thrusts for no apparent reason and constantly looks derpy. Maybe I’ll get a good shot of that one day. #catsofbluesky

It’s been an exhausting few weeks for so many reasons. Iggy is a bright light. He’s been spending time outside the tent in the room and being the well-behaved tidy gentleman he is. Also he likes the stick on the ribbon toy more than the ribbon. 🤷🏻‍♀️ #catsofbluesky #catsofbsky #gingercat

We’ve been without power because of the ice storm in SWVA. It’s been chilly in the house. Today, Iggy burrowed into the blanket while hanging out on the bed. I think he’s a caver. #catsofbluesky #catsofbsky #meow #rescuecats

So sad that Iggy didn’t officially get to meet Patsy. She’s always been a fantastic elder. He’s been so patient with us and our sadness. Selina, too. #gingercats #creamsiclecat #catsofbsky #catsofbluesky #meow

“One day you'll look to see I've gone. For tomorrow may rain, so I'll follow the sun”

Lost our sunshine girl, Patsy, today. 💔 She was 18, but we had 17 of those years with the sweetest and most amazing cat ever.

This was a black bear that decided to raid our peach tree
last summer. We see them come through, periodically. This one was right outside our window in our driveway. Wasn’t as shy as the others. #blackbear #swva #virginiamountains #wildlife #bearsofbluesky #vawildlife

This old lady went to the vet, today. Both I and the vet thought, for SURE, we were going to have the “CKD” talk after her bloodwork. Nope. Clean, thankfully. We need to monitor her weight, but otherwise, she might just be old and outrageously picky. #catsofbluesky #catsofbsky #oldladycat #meow

Iggy gets “yard time” multiple times a day (outside the tent). Good thing we have an appointment soon. His breath is absolutely disgusting. #meow #catsofbluesky #catsofbsky #gingercat

Just ‘cause he was being adorable. #cat #catsofbsky #catsofbluesky #gingercats
