I found this one in Italy, which makes it even more sad.

Handsome black cat I saw in a small town in Italy.

I’m not sure that post was good for his brand:

I guess I thought this labeler was automated. Anyway, Jerry liked one of my (trenchantly funny) replies so I was hoping I could be Jeffiried.

Henry (the black and white one) is very happy that Rae (the black one) has decided to sit next to him on the couch. She doesn’t do that very often due to his many offenses like “being a kitten introduced into the home of an adult cat several years ago”

A black cat named Rae is sitting next to a black and white cat named Henry. Henry is asleep, all curled up and happy.

Henry and Rae are concerned (that you might forget dinner time).

Please enjoy this photo of my cat Henry sleeping with his chin resting on the edge of a cut glass bowl. One of his favorite spots 🤷‍♂️

I saw these rocks and sign in a rock shop and thought immediately of @nora.zone

Three rocks on a shelf in a rock shop. The rocks have purplish-pink crystals covering the side facing the camera. There’s a sign above the rocks that says:

COBALTO-CALCITE
Pink Drusy Crystals of Calcite.
"Kobald" (German) goblin, demon.
(CaCo) CO3 - Crystalline pink-calcite.

Rae being playful and daring me to touch the belly. I tried to touch the belly but she ran away (that’s the whole bit, I’m supposed to chase her).

Oh thank goodness! We had a terrible scare last week with Henry (pictured). He snuck out in bitterly cold weather and was gone for hours. He sauntered up to the door and demanded to be let in when he got hungry.

This is Henry. He is too big to be on top of the aquarium. When he was a kitten he jumped on top of it while I had it open to feed the fish and ended up in the water but apparently that memory has faded.

If you see this, post a bird. This is some kind of seagull, I’m not sure what kind, one that is common on the coast of Massachusetts. It has an expression that suggests it expects humans to provide respite and maybe also some fish?

He'll always be The Kurgan for me.

Clancy Brown as The Kurgan, the main villain in the first Highlander movie. He is dressed in what can only be described as ridiculous armor, with a helmet that looks vaguely like a snake's skull and he is holding a large sword.

Someone posted in the Bluesky subreddit “I have an invitation, give me a good reason to give it to you” I posted a good reason, and OP decided to argue with me about it. Another Redditor thought OP was being a douche and sent me a code. That’s the story of how I became user #83,790.

Henry agrees with you about the wonders of box.

This guy bites when you touch his belly but he’s pretty gentle. He doesn’t know he’s not a baby anymore.

Saw this spiky boi this morning leaving my driveway.

Found this while cleaning out our garage. I think it’s probably original to our home, built in the 1970s.

A section of rough boards, probably from an old shipping crate, addressed to “M P Blouin, 14 Main St, Rollinsford NH.

The “P” is an error, it should have been an “F”, for the Maurice F. Blouin company. This company still operates as M. F. Blouin, but they moved production to Dover NH in 2017.

Henry in his favorite spot, the garage (to anyone who might be concerned we have a system to ensure no cars go in or out when the kitties are playing in the garage).

Sounds like Fiona, lol. Though she loves all people and would simply beg an intruder for treats. Her nemeses are other dogs and squirrels.

I love this goofy guy. There’s just something about him that makes me laugh every time I look at him.
