I’m just happy that she remembers this place! I realise it needs a good dust and vacuum though… poor girl is sneezing in one particular corner.

Her tail is so gorgeous too. Medium-haired cats are the best. Not too long to need frequent grooming, but that much more luxurious than a short-haired kitty
I am glad you have sighted the sox. I can now sleep. SOX!
She has definitely become sassier this time around, thought I’d put treats in one of her toys but it was just normal dry food and she went from super excited to instantly cold and uninterested and even hissed at me later when my leg inadvertantly brushed against her… but then she followed me into the bedroom and has been going in and out and I later heard her merrily crunching on the dry food. and she randomly mrrps at me and probably wants to play but It Is Sleepytime Now. Tomorrow I shall try and wear out some of her energy after work.
I’ve been rather hopeless with goals recently, but one big one for next year is finish my degree (whether I finish it well is another matter…), restore my balcony garden, and like you make exercise and creativity a more nonnegotiable part of my day. Easier to do in summer for sure.
Thats like… kangaroo, chicken, and t-rex all rolled into one. Impressive
Son of a gun, I’m having fun on the bayou 🎵
It took a bit of time for our lady to settle in this time as she’s been away for a year and hates the carrier - bit of hissing and swiping at her human before he left - but nothing a bit of churu knockoff can’t do to lift a kitty’s mood.
First point of order was bathroom, followed by a general investigation, then of course food (while I was rushing around tidying up and making my own dinner) - guaranteed cutest meows whenever food is involved - but I forgot then that I have to keep her out of my room if I open my closet, because she loves hiding in it and refusing to come out and there was more swiping and angry huffs as I tried to coax her out.
She’s pretty settled now though, headbutts and trills and all, and keeps coming back to sit on/near my socks, so I feel rather honoured 😌
Got a bit shitty at work over being lectured about fucking image formatting (fuck Word, seriously) but got over it thoroughly by (a) having walked to work and back - big tick, (b) absolutely SMASHING through the backlog, and © clocking off on the dot - because I have much more important things to attend to very shortly! Everyone else can fuck off!
Also managed to survive nearly getting collected by some fuckwit speeding through Kew Junction after the cars finished turning, a good 20 seconds after the lights had changed and I was halfway across the pedestrian crossing. People do be getting stuck in dumb situations there. No death for me today, though - thanks, but nothing will get in the way of hosting my VIP guest!
Got home in time to do some last minute gardening (now). How good is it having the sun still up when I get home. Home - which has been nicely aired through all windows during the day. It’s a great feeling.
Really wish I didn’t have such a full workload on because tomorrow would’ve been perfect to wfh/do half a day and potter around. I’m going to make sure I get some outside time at least and leave as early as I can. Weekend looks good for snuggles. I hope she will have fully remembered me by then. If not, some treats won’t go astray…
Poor girl will have no idea about it, until she’s placed with great and extreme difficulty in her carrier, the slinky little gymnast… But I think she does remember me as I’ve visited her a few times. I am sure she’ll enjoy her stay.
22.5 hours to ten days of CAT. I must tidy up the house a bit for her - so she has more nests to sit in. And avoids the pots where plants died and it’s all just dried up potting mix.
Oh, and there was so much gardening I wanted to do before she arrives, because I can’t have her escaping via the balcony, but I don’t think I’ll get to it in time… so she might have to be shut off in a bedroom for a couple hours when I get around to it. Though at the rate I’m procrastinating it might only get done after she leaves.
The sun being up when I wake up and get home is a huge plus. Short days aren’t great for the ol’ depresso
Would be good to hear how it works for you! I am working from home today and super grateful I can wash my clothes and get some sun in, given the dire forecast over the weekend, but I really only appreciate it this much because I’m out of the house most other times. Hopefully it’s a conducive space
begrudging upvote
Yep. Halfway through the season, Monday evenings
Do it. I see mostly positives and no real negatives.
Only Murders In The Building has been very entertaining this season, best season since the original I reckon.
What is that red? Looks like a good treat for when the trams are too busy. Yum
Had to pick up a few bins that had ended up on the road. They were all terribly drunk.
