Ruth getting claws clipped: Sits calmly & quietly b/c she trusts @danielmkim.bsky.social not to cut the quick, understanding treats will be forthcoming. Goodie getting claws clipped: Screams bloody murder in a purrito of his favorite blanket while his 2 back up humans attempt to hold him still.

Yesterday, no less than 10 minutes after arrival, Goodie threw down the gauntlet by climbing into Ruth's bag and getting his decidedly musky scent all over it, even going so far as to claw it into the mesh. Whatever detente may have existed before is broken. @danielmkim.bsky.social

How to Give @danielmkim.bsky.social a Heart Attack by CSM Purrgood Nelson Kim: 1. Escape out the front door. 2. Find Ruth Bader Ginsmeow in the bushes. 3. Realize you are "out" & sit down. 4. Wait for Appa to realize you are out & hyperventilate. #NoLeashesforKittehs #Leashfree #FreetheKittehs

Or, hear me out, is it because you hold up Goodie to her hidey-holes after he has already chased her because you're trying to start a fight b/t them???? @danielmkim.bsky.social You disturb her peace....

Ruth chose violence this AM, raising the Paw of Doom at Goodie while they waited for breakfast. Then, she then took the high ground (kitchen table) to dislodge Goodie from the adjacent kitchen chair to the one she desired. Secured victory via butt smack. She has had ENOUGH. @danielmkim.bsky.social

Shrimp is one of Ruth's favorite foods. W/ chicken or fish, she begs. W/shrimp, she plots. When she couldn't open the tupperware where they were defrosting, she faceplanted into a plate of shrimp tacos, grabbed the plumpest shrimp, and ran off to hide with her booty. #cats

My two food pet peeves. 1. Calling things kimchi that are not kimchi. 2. The overuse of rice paper. Ex: You can call bacon, scrambled eggs, and cheese wrapped in a rice paper spiral a bagel but that does not make it one. Additions, friends?

Ruth received a box of cat toys from a family friend. She has been acting strange every since. Sitting in a tense loaf and then running after them, licking them, etc.... Well....they're all filled with catnip. She's stoned out of her mind.

In light of the shooting at Brown University, a reminder: please don't rush to post in order to be first. Wait for substantive evidence from reliable sources lest you inadvertently spread misinformation. As a Rhode Islander who grew up a few miles from Brown, this one hits home.
