Our gorgeous new boy, Milo. He's 11, and was due to be left behind by his "owners" moving house, who had already banished him to a life outdoors for the last 5 years b/c the new "wife" doesn't like animals in the house. It's a fucking farm, FGS! Anyway, he's much happier with us! #rescued #cats

All the stuff going on in the Middle East... and the Daily Fail still can't let go of this...

What an absolutely dreadful first six weeks of 2026. We lost my lovely Jasmine in January, then on Monday, we discovered my Original Old Gentleman, Murphy, had suffered a stroke. We said our final goodbye to him Monday evening. He was 21 years and 6 months old. RIP, Dearest Murphster. #cats

My lovely Jasmine has been for her assessment, and the outcome looks bleak. A mass on her bowel, and further weight loss. She is down to 2.6kg from 2.8kg. A course of Prednisolone has been arranged, hopefully to give her some time. Vet said she is not in any pain, for which I'm grateful #Jasminecat

Playing "Driving Home For Christmas" with a tear in my eye. Looking through my #ChrisRea collection, and acknowledging what a talent he really was. #RIPChrisRea

My lovely Jasmine is going in for a dental procedure next week, and I have to admit, I'm a bit trepidatious due to her health issues. Wish her luck! #Jasmine #catsofbluesky #cats #teefs

It's two years today since my lovely feline soulmate Bertie went OTRB. There is hardly a day goes by when I don't think about him. #catremembranceday

My little Jasmine has continued to confound us by making slow but steady improvements in her general health. Her appetite has returned, but she is still a little underweight at 2.9kg and her shaved belly is resisting regrowth. #Jasminecat #cats #catsofbluesky

There is not a day when I don't miss this magnificent chap. My dearest Bertie, aka Lord Bertrand. I will never ever forget you. A piece of my heart died when you were taken from me xxxx #bertie #cats #catsofbluesky

Little Princess Jasmine, who has not been at all well. She still finds the energy to come and say hello. Bless her. #cats #catsofbluesky

Ukraine is holding the line for all of Europe, but I suppose when you're comfortably remote — in both miles and morals — grasping something as quaint as collective responsibility must feel terribly abstract.

@jamesblunt.com I cannot think of a higher honour than to be roasted mercilessly by you. BTW, saw you at Radio 2 In the Park a couple of years back, and the look on your face in that little inflatable dinghy... 😅

My talented lady painted this portrait of #LH44 Lewis Hamilton. She has captured his likeness very well IMHO. #LewisHamilton #FerrariF1 #ScuderiaFerrari

@scuderiaferrarif1.bsky.social My talented partner painted this awesome portrait of Lewis - I thought you should all see it! I think it is amazing. #lewishamilton44

Over Christmas, we had a fun evening drinking and painting. This was my first attempt at copying a famous painting. It's a bit rough, but I've never done anything like it before! #klimt

Back in the early 1970s when animal welfare was very patchy, this fox was recued from death by a pack of dogs. They killed his mother. This man saved him and gave him a lovely life. He was set free locally a few years later, and was regularly spotted in the area.

This page was set up as an homage to Bertie, who went OTRB in October 2023. The finest creature (including humans) I have ever met. He was a most magnificent cat.

Our O.G., aka Murphy, aka The Murphster, taken recently. He's an old man now, at 20 years and 5 months!

One of the very first pictures we took of 2-year-old Murphy, back in 2006. He's still here, now aged 20, an old boy now!

Hi all, I've escaped the toxicity of that "other" social media app, and arrived here. Hopefully we can have some friendly, clean, cat-inspired chats...
