The amount of fluff on a cat can be quite deceptive until they get their ass shaved. Wow man, I hope your pants grow back in quickly! 😂 (He was trapped, snipped, clipped and vaxxed this week hooray!)

Boy is getting trapped tomorrow so that he can get sterilized, vaccinated, the full community cat treatment and health checkup. Which means not feeding him today so he'll be hungry enough to get trapped. He has been so patiently waiting for dinner all evening […] [Original post on exe.schism.ink]

A roughly drawn comic in pencil and sharpie, using a floorplan layout for a historical house.

Text reads:

My office is very old.
Over 200 years.
Some say it is haunted.
By the man who built it?
By the slaves that once lived here?
Who knows?
It is a maze of additions
And stories untold.
And mine will be among them.
