I don't know quite how to explain this and it's more obvious when you see her move but I've never known a cat give off such strong "human trapped in a cat's body" vibes.

Walter de Staplecat, Simpkin IV, Teabag, Balthasar and Benny D Cat take the stage as we meet the college cats of Oxford. And, of course, Magdalen’s Ozymandias. Read on for our photo special. (Includes a cat map.) oxfordclarion.uk/college-cats...

Aren't they all? #petshaming

Look into my eyes.

Some people just can't keep their motivation up when they work from home.

Who wants to listen to a nice conversation about cats then? open.spotify.com/episode/7ek9...

The standard of fortune telling at St Giles Fair gets worse every year.

Talking of (bob)cats, my good friend and teammate's cat Sage has been going through hell lately. The family opened up a GoFundMe page because they need help paying the mountainous vet bills. It would mean the world to me if you could help them out! gofund.me/0c7f1019

Sooo hungry, but can't move.

How much is that kitty in the window? The one with the wriggly bum

Is there a Cats of Oxford Top Trumps @catsofoxford.bsky.social

Here's some ineffectual pouncing

The Doctor faces a terrifying new enemy.

Goodnight from Ozzy

Librarians when they find food in the library... ❌🥣

José and Moo were unusually close together (getting close to José is a rather chancy business), and then Mabel got up from the other end of the sofa, and walked along to curl up on top of their intersection.

I was wondering why Peter hadn't shown up for breakfast

On his back

The Sheldonian appears to have acquired a cat. Not sure if he's the little guy from Norham Gardens in which case he's a bit lost...

Enormokitten.

Meet Ozymandias. He doesn't know it yet, but once he's had his second jab, he's going to be the new Magdalen College kitten.

The first annual Cats of Oxford spot the difference competition.

Happy #Caturday everyone - we have been playing in the garden and now we are having a rest 😺

Small Black Cat came back again @sjpat3.bsky.social, while I was doing routine maintenance, on my taxi, asking to come in. There was a stand off when Prospero and Julia saw her. I’m pretty sure she doesn’t like Small Black Cat being on her territory.

Mid week sun puddling 😻😻#Hedgewatch #CatsOfBlueSky

Alexa, show me "optimism".

This is the face of a cat who had a routine vet's appointment at 5:30 today, and so disappeared yesterday afternoon, left us worried sick overnight, and didn't reappear until 5:35, after we'd had to cancel the appointment. Don't try to tell me they don't understand overheard English.

Lucy can't believe I need to take another photograph #Caturday

On the plus side, at least he's not sleeping in the washing machine this week.

Morning Hedgewatchers 😻 it’s a lovely day for a #Hedgewatch this #Catboxsunday and as our pal Ron always said “sniffin is livin” Love Phoebe

"Excuse me, I think you'll find those are *my* sausages."

Insuperable obstacles to copy-editing this morning.

Say what you like about the issues with artificial intelligence, but I don't have the artistic and technical skills to capture Charlie's true nature without it, nor the cat-wrangling skills to make him wear fancy dress in real life.

The Neighborhood Watch. @catsofoxford.bsky.social

Two of our cats posed artistically this morning.

Perhaps there is something that we can learn from the US at the moment - it's #NationalLoveYourPetDay today! Pets enrich our lives: from companionship to helping reduce stress, so here are some pics of those that are loved by our students, Fellows, & staff😍 @catsofoxford.bsky.social #DogsOfBluesky

Auditioning for a remake of The Trouble With Tribbles.

Waitrose has acquired a car park cat, and apparently a velcro wall.

There is a new tiger in town! Meet foster cat No.61 Jerry 😼#CatsofBlueSky

a proper kerfuffle outside the window at this morning’s #church staff meeting, when this cat was chasing a squirrel along the top of the rectory garden fence. #Oxford 1104 GMT. He then sat staring the squirrel out for the rest of the meeting.

Someone is feeling sorry for himself. Based on previous evidence he probably lost a fight overnight.
