Nancy By Ernie Bushmiller August 24,1946

Styopka’s wisdom It’s good that there are difficulties. They show who’s really around. #StyopkasWisdom

Francine is back home at the Richmond Lowes and sporting her new airtag. Francine decided to venture onto a delivery truck and go on a walkabout at a distribution center. The employees and townsfolk who love Francine launched a massive hunt for her. I'm so happy she is home.

Talk show hosts.

Dandy is snuggling, but also ignoring me. I left to go watch my niece run Cross Country earlier and she was not happy I went to the outside during unapproved hours.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Dandy has perfected her Cinnamon Roll form.

Mambo does a dramatic retelling of his bad dream ("And I looked and looked but there was NO MILK BAR and I was having a STARVATION!") while his siblings ignore him.

Pyewacket is a Stage 5 Clinger— he has a lot of very Big Feelings about being placed in a playpen with all the things he needs like food, litter, toys, stuffies and instead thinks he should just be allowed to live the rest of his life on my couch where none of those things are.

Mambo finds his feet... and his voice. OH, that sweet little voice!

obviously this is an empty box but it's giving me the weirdest feeling, like it is somehow surveilling me

This is how you handle Nazis.

may Mr Lover light your path

don't worry, everything is going according to plan

On the rare occasion where Dandy doesn’t greet me at her Post of Greetings, she’ll ask to come up at the door. When she does this she “flys” to Dandyland. This is what it looks like.

If you politely mute when you aren't talking, it doesn't even matter if someone is scream meowing in the background of your zoom

This little face (Mambo) just kills me. He looks like a toothless old man asking if the dining room will be serving vanilla pudding tonight for dessert.

Happy Birthday to Tiffany who was born on this day in 1971. #Tiffany #80smusic #musicsky

Halloween inspiration:

Spooky Season Reads: A Thread I’m going to try and post horror recommendations through the month. I believe they’ll take the form of author spotlights, giving a general breakdown of an author’s style and a good starting point for reading their work.

The snuggling continues.

Dandy is in surveillance mode. From her high perch she can look upon all of her subjects, judging their appearance.

timeline cleanse, sound on

Newest little friend is very chatty & missing his mum but settling in, getting less restless between feedings now that his tummy’s full. He picked the bottle up fast & eats with such strong suction that he pulls in the sides of the bottle. He’s not from our other colonies, still working out a name.

Thank you for your patience this last weekend. We now return to our regularly scheduled Spike & Dandy programming.

An important PSA from Batman

he is a little baby cat. banana for scale

A minute at the milk bar. ChaCha is keeping those kittens very well fed!

my cat when i explain that my retirement plan consists solely of the expectation that i will be transported and reborn into a medieval fantasy game setting like in an isekai anime, with a generous magic system that makes healthcare coverage obsolete

Himb's hamsum

many people often speak of Chancleta's strength and power. indeed, it is estimated that 90% of governments are consumed with this issue right now. but few speak of his mercy, his maturity. how he ignores the provocations of his sister each day, because she is small and young. praise him. a hero.

For comparison purposes.

When making kitten pie (my favorite!) it's important to be sure your filling is evenly distributed across the crust. I've done an excellent job here, and mama ChaCha approves.

Meet Tsybulka, our new little assistant/little horsie Tsybulka means Little Onion in Ukrainian (Цибулька) She got the name after playing with a little onion at my cousin’s house I wanted to call her Asya, but my son insisted on Tsybulka😻

$400 to the first goal which, combined with money a close friend gave me, will at least help cover the cost of vaccinations and spay/neuter. Anyone wanna help some cute kittens find gainful employment at a cat cafe? www.gofundme.com/f/urgent-res...

feeling a little silly

clownish. not at all respectable. cannot take her anywhere.

Inconceivable! On this day in 1987, The Princess Bride was released in theatres. #ThePrincessBride #80smovies

Allegedly they wouldn’t “have to vacuum so much” if I stopped “being so dramatic” when they are “just trying to brush me” which all sounds fake. I choose neither
