A bad day today. We were walking our puppy, Bailey, on a public trail when a pit bull mix ran up and viciously attacked him. We hoped it was just a couple bites but Bailey leg is broken in one or two places and the attack was so bad that the abdominal cavity may have been penetrated.

Jiji says that if Catalonia had an Olympic team, she have a medal to hang from her collar.

Jiji says that things have been too ugly for a while and I need to watch a movie and just chill for a couple hours.

A very hard day for Brenda and me. We had to say goodbye to our beloved Aussie, Philly after 10 1/2 years together. He was our defender and our best friend. He will never be forgotten. We will get another dog because dogs make our lives complete, but none will ever replace Philly

It's been a tough time lately. Chaos and blood in the streets. Hatred seems to have love on the run. And today, the death of Bob Weir, whose music has been a constant in my life for more than 50 years. I need to ground myself and remember my beloved Foo and warm myself in his memory. #caturday

Happy #caturday from the bathroom sink! No, I can't explain it.

Lixxie, Twink and Jiji wish my Bluesky family sunbeams and baskets of warm laundry for the holidays and all the year ahead. Share love every day.

Belated #caturday again. Jiji has stopped running away every time I point the phone at her, which makes things a lot more convenient. Tried out the AI editing on the phone and it wasn't too bad. But I still prefer doing my own edits.

From 2005: Houdini reminds you that you better watch out this holiday season. #caturday

From 2002, the original Twinkie gets a visit to the great outdoors in her carrier. #caturday

Belated Thanksgiving: Jiji looks out at the snow and is grateful to be inside where it's warm and dry. #catsofbluesky #caturday

When the tryptophan kicks in. Happy Thanksgiving to all from Jiji. #catsofbluesky

Jiji's battery has gone flat again. "This place needs more charging stations... Anybody got a USB-C?" #catspfbluesky

Twink looks magnificent. He might use this as a poster in his campaign to be elected Ruler of the Whole World. It's shows he's got the vision thing... #caturday #catsofbluesky

Aurora over central Indiana 11 Nov 25. You could see them with the naked eye.

Ji Ji is feeling a little less than 100% on this #caturday but it's for a good cause. She went to the vet and got spayed yesterday. Bob Barker's ghost will not be haunting us and she'll have a long and happy life. Hard to believe that she used to be barely a handful and her ribs sticking out.

Running late for #caturday Twink doesn't like the time change. "I don't care what the clock says - it feels like bedtime to me!" #catsofbluesky

From 2008: Loo and her antenna array. #whiskerwednesday #catsofbluesky

Ji Ji is starting to have some doubts about her plans to use Cut Rate Crooz for her upcoming holiday. What was supposed to be her stateroom is labelled "Cargo Hold No. 1." #caturday

For this #caturday, we remember back to when Lixxie first joined our family in December 2021. We found him sitting beside the path where we take our dogs for a walk like he was just waiting for us to arrive. It took about five minutes for him to settle in and he's run the place ever since.

Twink reminds you that National Cat Day in the US is less than two weeks away. Time for you to select and ship my gift so it doesn't arrive late. #catsofbluesky

From the legacy file: Foo knows that his plot to take over the house is going perfectly. They don't suspect a thing! Mwa ha ha! #caturday

Jiji enjoying a chill #caturday. It's a great idea for all of us.

Twink's magnificent whiskers. He can pick up radio stations hundreds of miles away. #CatsOfBluesky #WhiskerWednesday

Twink decided that there's too much reality right now and he's hiding under some warm towels until things settle down. #caturday

To Licorice, EVERY day is #Caturday. #CatsOfBluesky

Jiji celebrates #TongueOutTuesday. #CatsOfBluesky

Say hi to Ji Ji everybody. A couple weeks ago a friend called and said they'd found a kitten. She was just skin and bones, you could clearly feel the ribs, spine and hips. But she's doing much better and has made herself completely at home. She's the queen of (very cute) mean! #caturday

Twink, the Golden Cat, takes a break from his duties of running the house.

Today's Wordle is not a real word. And it cost me a 70 day streak. Sucks.

Licorice shows off his ceremonial robes. #Caturday #BlackCat

Twink gazes out the window. Looks like it might be fun but likes it better when food is provided without the bother of chasing it.

Support for core American principles such as “innocent until proven guilty” and due process is deeper and more widespread than the 2024 election suggests. Only a subset of Trump voters really wanted to overthrow Constitutional democracy. Some were naive, fantasizing, or duped. Keep pushing on this.

Requiring REAL IDs and passports and birth certificates to vote?!? Imagine if these were required to buy a gun.

Make it STAAWP!

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

just block them

The NYT Wordle today is going to upset a lot of people.

Hi folks - Paul here. I've been all over social media ever since there's been an internet. This is my latest stop. Heard a lot of good things about Bluesky and I like what I've seen so far - already following over 200 people which should make for an entertaining feed.
