News video! Matey and Sweetums have gone to live at NEAST HQ today, but I still have plenty of adoptable friends here. Also, if you're really lucky, next week you might get a vid from a real actual cat cafe (as opposed to the half-arsed establishment I live in 😆) youtu.be/-XVet6FbUio?...

This is Rex. He is a sweet, snuggly, sooky boy and you should adopt him. Located near St Helens, north-east Tas. youtu.be/mLYI-Zz5w4s?...

Errol kicking his brother Rex in the head. 😆

Current guests available for adoption: * Scaredy * Elsa * Bunker * Matey * Mistress Hiss * Robin * Sweetums * Saffron * Amber * Errol * Rex

Bunker. He's very helpful at keeping your clothes warm for you in the bathroom. Emphasis on the 'keeping'. 😅

What's that? Some slacker finally got around to making a new video?? youtu.be/43_qn-ImGEg

Morning cat stack.

Good afternoon, Tiny Stripe.

Apparently the outdoors is not salubrious for relaxing today.

There's an attempted stowaway in my suitcase!

"Why you photo me and not pat?" Big Al enjoying his garden time. The answer to the test of whether he can walk himself there without running away is yes.

In my line of work, one becomes something of a connoisseur of feline upchucks. When I encounter an offering That Was Prepared Earlier and it causes me to say "phwoar, that's a bit whiffy", you know it's something a bit special. 😆

Floff

Seeing if Al can be trusted to walk himself to his garden from the garage.

Scaredy is very busy relaxing this afternoon.

Brb, eagerly awaiting delivery of my Most Heroic Urine Sample Collection 2025 award for successfully diving across the room with the specimen container as this guy decided to have a stand-up wee out through the net wall of the enclosure.

It's amazing how many people suddenly flood out of the woodwork when the incantation 'Maine Coon' is uttered... 🧐

Amber still doesn't trust me, but she loves toys on strings. She also still loves her son Errol even though he's now bigger than her. Available for adoption in north-east Tasmania, Australia

I've had Errol since he was one day old, and I can't get over how he's grown from a tiny little fighty blob into such a big handsome Good Boy. Available for adoption in north-east Tasmania, Australia. #catsofbluesky

Decided I'd better get a personal account in addition to this one due too much appalling nonsense potential, so I'm going to unfollow most people and shift you over to @dont-be-an-octopus.bsky.social. 🧳

Absolute worst thing about living in the country is distantly mooing cows sound *exactly* like your phone vibrating when someone is trying to ring you. Please, I don't want to spend my whole day playing Pocket or Cow, just text me. 😭

Big Al has finally decided he likes playing with this toy.

Matey, Matey, Matey. Someone out there will think he's the best thing since sliced bread, but he drives me bananas with his pushy, needy, doggy personality and inability to mind his manners around other cats.

This is Big Al. (his name was Narla but I already have a Nala) He's my first direct surrender as The Cat Shack instead of a foster. He is a super sweetie, but he appears to be FIV+, so he can't be integrated with my existing cats and I need to get him a house of his own. youtu.be/SjBC8G6Gu80

Long Taika is long

Rex is having an ear malfunction this morning! 😆 Available for adoption in north-east Tasmania. #catsofbluesky

This is my big cat-yard out the back that's been sitting around 80% finished for about a year. Finally making progress again. It's made of 'wallaby' mesh (rigid enough to stand up on its own), star pickets and Catnets netting and angle brackets.

Errol, Muffin, Amber and Rex. #catsofbluesky

Interviewer: And what would you say is your greatest passion in life? Me: Organising cats. 😸

I am floff, I slep on tabl

Amber apparently really likes this gardening glove.

Anyone want to make a bet on how long it's going to take for me to get into trouble using this account to follow things of personal interest...? 😅

I was trying to pick up this wand to tempt Amber to come closer, but Muffin is like a toy-seeking missile with a nuclear warhead and I can't even get hold of the handle 😅

Errol is ready for adoption, it's time he and his brother Rex found their forever homes, please! Look what a perfect good boy he is. ♥️ Located near St Helens, Tasmania, Australia #CatsofBlueSky

Hi Rex!

Errol had a quick check at the vets today and he's healing up well. But he says please stop trying to paparazzi him, he needs a nap after the ordeal!

News video, including a check-in with Errol. youtu.be/Qql_SHK2Dng

Errol had to have 'the works' to find that missing ball and is now busy healing up from multiple incisions, but he doesn't seem bothered at all. The thing he hates most is being made to stay in a cage overnight so he doesn't get into unsupervised mischief.

If anyone is following the saga of Errol's Missing Ball, good news - he's been pronounced big enough to have his surgery and is booked in on Feb 12, after which he will finally be ready for adoption.

Rex is still figuring out the door flap... (Available for adoption in north-east Tasmania) #CatsofBluesky youtu.be/DvTYV0EfVCM
