Styopka’s wisdom I’ve noticed that all problems in life begin exactly the moment you crawl out from under the blankie #StyopkasWisdom

Our little Tsybulka and her first Christmas tree 🎄💚❄️

Greetings from Kyiv! I’m a bit late today – had some rest, visited an exhibition, and walked slowly among the paintings. We even had a spoonful of snow. How are you after Christmas?

Please (please!) try to avoid messages like “Glad you are still alive/not injured”. And tell others. It hurts. Kyiv is still under heavy attack. No power, heating, water. But we hold on.

After 9 hours 53 minutes, all clear in Kyiv. Zelenskyy said russia launched nearly 500 drones and 40 missiles, with Kyiv as the main target.

Kyiv. Life after the night attack. Water is back. Heating’s better. Air raid alert again. No power. Generators sing about hope. This city stands – wounded, but stands.

Kyiv. Still no power at home. Air raid alert again. Victory (still a cat) already in her shelter 😅

You may know the Petrykivka style, a traditional 🇺🇦 art form with bright flowers and birds. The one in the video is less known: Mykolaiv painting, a local southern Ukrainian tradition used to decorate wooden chests and household items in the late 19th-early 20th century, with simple floral patterns.

Styopka’s wisdom If today you crave quiet, warmth, and hugs - you’re doing everything right #StyopkasWisdom

So interesting -Tsybulka is the only cat Twix accepted and spends time with He prefers to interact only with his mom Snowy and his brother Biscuit But he absolutely loves little Tsybulka! ❤️❤️❤️

Carols in the Kyiv metro. Sending you a bit of Christmas spirit from Ukraine.

Trump: Talks with Ukrainians and russians on a peaceful settlement are proceeding normally. 😡😡😡

Styopka’s wisdom Civilization doesn’t end with an explosion - it ends with indifference to cruelty #StyopkasWisdom

Friends, we're ok No sirens so far, it means russian scum are stockpiling missiles and drones to terrorise us during Christmas I cleaned my apartment before the next outage, fed little horsies Now I'm watching alpine skiing To remain positive, I'm listening to mantras It helps

Ukrainian traditions on Christmas Eve. Many have faded over time, but some are slowly returning, like the Didukh (I even bought one instead of a Christmas tree this year). Sunday Letter (please like or share, posts with links reach fewer people): www.patreon.com/posts/sunday...

Oh dear and I'd just wished you a Happy Christmas! 🤔 All things happen for a reason and those people saw the good in you. How do you know that they weren't angels in disguise trying to give you belief in yourself?😇

Styopka’s wisdom The Japanese say: “Don’t teach fate anything bad.” Dream of good things! #StyopkasWisdom

Looks like I’ve found a new hobby – visiting local markets and discovering little treasures. Even if my posts help Ukrainian artisans just a tiny bit, I’m happy. They deserve to be seen. Just look at these cuties I saw today.

Styopka’s wisdom Be soft. Be gentle. Be kind to yourself. You need you. #StyopkasWisdom

May the odds be ever in your favor.

Kyiv at night, gently wrapped in a thick blanket of fog. Calm and beautiful.

Friends, let's be generous and kind these pre-Christmas days🙏 37 resident cats and 11 community cats of Mrs Welcy deserve to receive their Christmas-batch of food😻🎅 Every little bit helps them enjoy a cozy, full tummy this holiday season 😻❤️

After Styopka’s vet visit, the pet carrier is permanently parked in the kitchen - it’s basically the cat flophouse now 😸

- As long as you keep giving me these wonderful, expensive canned food, I don’t mind how many pills you shove in it. Keep going. Styopka

Stand with Ukraine ♥️🇺🇦♥️

Friends, we're ok On my way to the office Lucky me: I finished my hairstyle right the moment when the outage started I'm late: I had to coordinate the loading/unloading of my houses for UN project Huge stress Styopka feels good He was waiting for his breakfast on my chair like always😸

Styopka’s wisdom Home doesn’t heal wounds, yet somehow that’s the only place you stop feeling them #StyopkasWisdom

- Bastik, let’s keep looking for Styopka through the window. He’ll come home faster this way! - Tsybulka, then let’s look for mom coming back from work too - it always helps!

Upd about Styopka Little guy has issues with his teeth The pain on his chin comes from that He’ll stay at the vet for the next 24h They’ll check his blood and do a heart echo Tomorrow is the main dental procedure I'm ashamed to ask but if you want to contribute we'll be happy It's quite expensive😾

Styopka’s wisdom While the cat’s teeth are being treated, somewhere a human wallet is quietly crying #StyopkasWisdom

1:09 am in Kyiv. Calm is over. Missiles. Every Friday night 🙄

What you see is a motanka – a traditional Ukrainian protective doll. Made by winding fabric, not sewing. It has no face – to avoid giving it an identity or inviting a soul. Instead, a sun cross marks balance and protection. Maybe your culture has something similar?

Yesterday, I showed you some items in the Petrykivka style. The key figure behind this art is 🇺🇦 Tetiana Pata (1884–1976). She taught an entire generation of artists, making sure Petrykivka would survive and flourish. Some of her works

Friends, let's help Mrs Welcy buy food for kitties🙏 I hate to think they have food for only 1 day Every dollar matters, it's a portion for 1 kitty We can also support Mrs Welcy with her new glasses Even working 3 jobs, she gives everything she has for kitties and her 2 kids🙏❤️

Buddies ❤️❤️

- Biscuit, tell me again what life without war is like. Do you really know it? - Yes, Tsybulka, I do. Though I’ve almost forgotten by now.

The perfect painting for both the Day of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and Saint Nicholas Day: 🇺🇦 Illia Yarovyi Saint Nicholas Shoots Down the Devil’s Shahed
