“Impressed” is insufficient to describe this.

Did we somehow fall into an alternate timeline?

Need to write about my experiences on Substack: substack.com/@johnsonized...

Warning violent content⚠️ Trump & his administration are shredding the Constitution. They're ignoring our rights. & trying to turn our country into a fascist surveillance state. They're attacking our people & our way of life, but you can do something about it. Call Congress now: 202-224-3121!

DARN! Missed #Caturday again. Here's one of our recent rescue kittens becoming alarmed at Sterling, one of our grown juveniles, outside the Kittenenclosure. His ridgeback is impressive.

No, you're not seeing double. 4 of the new rescues: Snow Drift & his twin sister on a fleece blanket. Junior [looks just like his mom] & [no name yet] on the arm of the Adirondack chair. Still working on getting their eyes cleaned, being stuck shut from bad colds - but they're all getting better.

Perfect... #cats 3 of 12 of our new rescues snoozing on dad's lap in the Kittenclosure. What better way to start a Sunday than being so trusted by new arrivals that they fall asleep on you?

It's #Caturday ! We saved 12 🐈 lives this week. 2 feral moms, 10 kittens between them. 2 are albinos. Built a separate enclosure. Got them all washed. No fleas! All kittens have colds with stuck shut eyes and plugged noses, requiring repeat cleaning. Video feed if we can figure out RTSP.

It's #Caturday ! Amber, one of our smallest rescues 🐱, nestled into mommy's fluffy chair blanket. She's so sweet. She greets me at the bottom of the stairs every morning, stands up as tall as she can and implores me to join her for breakfast. 🍵 🐈 Can't pass that up.

Hmmmm.... Perhaps we should require that from candidates for president

Get 'em while they're HOT.

It's #Caturday ! Butters caught a Mouse! He's s Kurilian Bobtail. The breed originated in Russia. Rare within the US. He's my guardian. First thing in the morning when I open the window to the cat flap, he goes out into the kittenclosure to make sure it's all safe for everyone to go out.

As do we.

Our long-standing Allegany Artisans Studio Tour, on the 18th and 19th, now end up coinciding with No Kings #2. As such, we'll have to be in the glass studio hotshop, as opposed to showing our support. Rest assured, we do and we'd be there if we could. bsky.app/profile/glas... glasssculpture.org

It's #caturday ! Our Winky returned home. Her sister Zot misses her, searching through the house. Later, as our grief subsides some, we'll go out to our hotshop and blow a glass kittyface urn for her ashes. Right now, I know we'd not be able to get very far before our vision would be obscured.

My First Substack: Executive Order to Fly Flags at Half-Staff? With A Slight Amendment...

Happy #TunaTuesday from Watson, who's decidedly had his share of Tuna! After grabbing this I tried for a really great shot that captured his full shadow stretching across the floor toward me, but was beseged by many other #cats "helping" by sequentially getting in the frame and ruining it. #catsky

It's #Caturday - Moonlight 🐈 Stressing Out Again Turned from doing the dishes and met with this. What a hoot. Takes the stress out of one's day. (He isn't, so why should we be?) We're dealing with Covid-19 here, picked up at #WorldCon during our #HUGOs delivery. Gotta take the bad with the good.

Darn! I missed #Caturday ! Moonlight stressing out as usual.

It’s #WhiskersWednesday! Moonlight’s Fantastic Feelers!

It’s #Caturday! Moonlight, ya gotta relax…

It’s Caturday! If I fits, I sits.

It’s Caturday! Lola watching BirdTV.

"There's no good art anymore" is such an upside down looney tunes ass opinion when we're surrounded by people making amazing shit all the time on here. There's no good art? Get better at searching. Good lord.

It’s a :( Caturday! Butters saying a gentle “Hello. We miss you.” to Silicon’s remains. The disk he’s cradling is Silicon’s paw print impressed in white clay. Her ashes are in the tall Rainbow Bridge canister and some of her fur is contained in the small clear square box.

Our Silicon returned to us today. (Had to stop typing for a bit… could no longer see the screen for the tears.) We’ll create a blown glass urn for her in our hotshop and some of her ashes will be infused into a sphere using glasses matching her colors. Her fur will be placed into FurEver FurBalls.

It's Caturday! Butters enjoying the new Shark Bed we received from a donor, among a welcome array of other needed donations from our Amazon Wish List.

OMG! A delivery came from our Amazon Wish List: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/... SOooo very thankful to our donators. Our kids are appreciting each and every addition to the their supplies. We are many and caring for us is a big job. Our rescuers are a non-profit, so can supply receipts if needed.

We lost our beloved Silicon today and she crossed the Rainbow Bridge. She had been ravenously eating for weeks, even horning in on other's food, but steadily getting thinner. Two days ago she stopped eating. A brave, tiny girl. Tears suddenly obscure my vision.

IT’S CATURDAY! Watson *not* in that box! #cats #caturday #rescues #shelter
