… and thought it must be the radio. Pulls up at my place after at least an hour of driving around, I have to prise Reg the cat out from under the driver’s seat. He is undaunted and this morning is desperate to go out again. He is a moron and a danger to himself and others

Reg the red Burmese in a typical resting position, on his back with legs splayed up out thus making him look like a spatchcocked chicken

Love this poll - 'Someone else' means 'Please god anyone but the above' #nzpol

Stuff poll that asks who you'd vote for as new National Party leader. Nicola Willis on a crushing 13%, Chris Bishop on 29%, Erica Sanford on 21% and 'Someone Else' well in the lead at 37%

Olive the beauteous British bulldog and Pablo the permanently anxious Staffordshire terrier

Suspicious Staffordshire terrier- probably seen a spoon (he hates them)

Just waiting for someone to amend the caption, like in that photo of the penguin and the bagpiper

Headline says: "Watch: Melania Trump arrives at White House, with a robot" and the caption for the photo that shows two humanoid creatures in all white should read, 'Robot is on the left' (it is, I think)

Post a pic you took, no context, to bring some zen to the feed

Here's the fourth - sleeping on her own

Cream Burmese cat curled up on a chair with a blue/black/yellow cushion behind her (honestly, it's a nice pattern)

He's basically saying, "Don't worry, they'll be dead soon", right?

Headline from Stuff, quoting Auckland Mayor, Wayne Brown, saying housing change has done its job if it "calms down worried elderly residents".

Everyone should see this photo of my cat

A cream Burmese cat lifting its head so you can only see its chin and neck which looks weird because my cat is a weirdo

Exceptionally irate looking fancy chicken

Have managed to grow sweetcorn and zucchini. Have managed to pick two zucchini that are zucchini sized but no one knows you’re a marrow when you’re grated.
