Voted! @chugarden.bsky.social and I were 770 and 772 in W1-P5. Felt joyful to vote for @dewayneforminneapolis.com, @elliottpayne.org, @engy5150.bsky.social and more!

It’s #caturday and Debbie is adorably in my spot. I guess I will need to find another seat.

Debbie striking a dramatic pose. #catsofbluesky

My buddy took me to Wisconsin and it was preposterously awesome. A chickadee ate from my freaking hand! It was so tiny, it had no weight, I could only feel its tiny talons

We believe these handsome rabbits might be siblings. They have similar ginger fur & aquiline noses

Happy #caturday! Here is Harry intensely staring at his bunny pal while his bunny pal stares intensely at Harry.

This sweet summer child of a rabbit seems to want to be friends with the cats

3 happy little goldfinches nibbling away at a hyssop.

It’s #caturday and Debbie is demurely crossing her ridiculously tiny paws.

My new #crochet project is really bringing out Harry’s eyes. Happy #caturday!

Now that we can post our own gifs, here’s our new Minnesota Pride flag 🎉

Happy #caturday from Debbie and Harry

I received a trail camera for my birthday from my husband @chudgar.com. We have a raccoon in the yard. They eat my corn but you can’t deny they are photogenic 😀

It’s #caturday and Debbie and Harry are VERY interested in the tiny bunny on the front walk.

Update: a 10-year-old is singing “Africa” by Toto (1982)

It has been a heavy week. But, I still have a backyard. My next door neighbor Daisy is having a 10th karaoke birthday party. You have not lived until you hear a 10 year old singing Toto’s Africa with full commitment

A little bunch of things from the late summer garden. My mom passed away this weekend and she was a very keen gardener. I like how she quietly instilled her love of plants with me. Between you and me, it was the only thing she did quietly. 😀

If you’re into sparrow feet have I got a photo for you

Debbie loves her little Kong yarn ball. Things can get a little rowdy if Harry gets involved so it is a “supervised” toy 😄 Happy #caturday

A tiny hummingbird bird resting on a big ol wire. He’s a regular to the yard.

It’s #caturday! Don’t know anything about this very handsome black cat. They visit in the evenings and sometimes Debbie and Harry chatters with them. I’m a sucker for a black cat ❤️

Poor wet woollybear 😢

The garden is maturing nicely. This is our tiny pond just begging for a frog to move in.

Debbie admiring a sunset this week. Happy #caterday 

Debbie isn’t much of a cuddler but Harry is. He very subtly keeps a foot on Debbie for snoozing. Happy #caturday!

Not sure what Harry is up to here. Practicing sitting up? Happy #caturday!

I know #gardeners and #bunnies are supposed to be enemies but come on. A very tiny bunny eating peas. What is not to love?

#cats are not bothered by heat advisories. Surface temperature of 104.9 F.

For #caturday. The puff ball remains of a Debbie and Harry play session.

Yin yang #cats basking in the sunshine. This is Harry and Debbie’s new favorite spot.

Big ‘ol #bumblebee on foxglove beardtongue . He was so big, he kept snapping off the flowers.

Look at this nice mushroom @chugarden.bsky.social found in the garden! From genus Oudemansiella (per @inaturalist.bsky.social)

It’s #caturday. I’m in Minneapolis and I almost didn’t post. I won’t the bastards get me down.

The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

March reaches the Capitol

At the Capitol, grim but determined crowd. Marchers approaching

Harry gently draped for #caturday.

#peony season is a brief but lovely time of year.

My lone Itoh #peony bloom just about to bust out.

It’s #caturday. Perfect time for a little toe work.

An adorable little installation at the entrance of our local #postoffice.

Happy cat in a box for #caturday. That box is interesting but just what is going on outside?

Early days but the garden is starting to wake up. #garden

Harry’s nickname around the house is “big paw boy “. Here he is showing off after his dinner and perhaps a bit of his sister’s left overs. Eating is exhausting. #catsofbluesky

Whenever I stop here my 13 year old boy mind takes over and I find it hilarious.

Debbie is always so interested in Harry settling into his hammock. Happens pretty much every day but new every time. #catsofbluesky

A strangely cool #caturday. Harry is enjoying both the fire and RuPaul’s All Stars

Happy #caturday from Debbie and Harry ❤️
