Last year felt like a decade passed.

Guess this year is going for a century worth of events in a year.

A tuxedo cat lays in his cat tree looking wistfully into the distance with one paw draped over the side of the perch.

I situate myself, and seat myself,
And where you recline I shall recline,
For every armchair belonging to you as good as belongs to me.

Sani my sweetest tuxedo boy cat settling comfortably on the pillows at the end of the sofa, he looks firmly at the camera and obviously hopes that I will leave him alone. A bookshelf can be seen in the background.

I do absolutely adore Mister Wilfred.

Do adopt older cats.

They're often left alone in the shelters. They don't understand why their previous people couldn't stay with them. And then they're alone in a place full of noise and other cats.

Yet they make the best pets when you adopt them.

Mister Wilfred, an older black cat, snuggled in a blanket, looking literally like the cat who got the cream.

If you are able, please consider adopting an older rescue cat. They will give you the best cat loves. They know how lucky they are, and they only want us to feel the same.

Spicy blend. 🫖 Photo from my collection, no documented date/info.

Black and white photo of a shorthaired grey cat peeking out of the open top of a large, chipped enamel tea kettle. The kettle is outside on the ground in the sun, a wooden yard fence visible in the background.

Scout and T

@scoutandt.bsky.social

Today Sir Kat Chirpsalot decided to settle in, pull up a cat tree and call these four walls "home." He's been quite reluctant to spend much time with Scout and I. I bring him out and he scurries off to where he feels safe, in a fluffy cat cave. Pretty sure I have 2 cats now and a few feral friends.

Skeeter! ❤️ From my collection, 1943.

Black and white photo of a shorthaired white and tabby cat relaxing in a garden overgrown with foliage. The cat looks calmly at the camera and cursive handwriting in the lower right corner identifies the cat as “Skeeter”.
