The competition in the Midwest Interspecies Loafing Regionals is intense and it's hard to say at this point who will prevail and advance to the national quarterfinals

Sugar the cat and Charlie the dog, loafing on the top of the stairs

Saja has located a sunbeam. More updates as events warrant.

Saja illuminated in a sunbeam. His black fur turns a little brownish in full sun.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

Saja asserts dominance over the dog and the dog is actually kinda into it

Saja, flagrantly draping his tail over the dog's face, and the dog is all, like, well, this is my life now

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

Saja's head pat most emphatically did not go over as intended.

Saja, on top of the human's computer, giving Spice a head bonk. Spice's reaction was less than thrilled.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

Smudge has some important news: BOX

Smudge, sitting in a box that used to hold the human's signature sheets

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 07/09/2026

Spice is just THRILLED the human is back from his travels, THRILLED, I say

Spice the cat, looking definitively unimpressed with the human.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

"Hey, when did the kitten get so big?"

Smudge, who is older, looking at Saja, who just turned one. Saja is a loooong boy now.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

"I think the dog is dead. I think we should eat her."

Saja looking at Charlie the dog, who is laying in the grass like a big ol' lump

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 21/08/2026

"No, I am not sleeping on the top stair just to trip you and make you fall down the stairs. But it would be a nice bonus."

Sugar the cat, napping with intent on the top stair

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

"I was told there would be bacon."

Smudge, sitting at the table in a chair, patiently awaiting his cured meats.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 16/08/2026

"Yeah, okay, that bird is DEFINITELY trying to start something with me"

Saja the kitten looking out the patio door at something, probably a bird, ears back.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 11/08/2026

"The power is out and you can't get online to work? That means you have more time to focus on me. Get to it, human."

Spice the cat, resting on the human, glancing back at him whilst he tries to use his laptop

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 07/08/2026

Sugar: "So where am *I* going to sit? Rude."

The human's office cat tree's three spots are filled with Smudge, Spice and Saja, and Sugar is looking at the cat tree as if she's wanting a spot.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 04/08/2026

"Why, yes, officer, I did see the whole thing, and I would be willing to testify in court about it"

Sugar the cat, on the stairwell, looking very chatty and sincere.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 03/08/2026

Spice and Smudge exhibit the differences in nap position philosophies

Spice, curled up, demure, one paw daintily sticking out

Smudge, goblin, sprawled, one eye open from the skin on his head being pushed back

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

Smudge, his face studiously neutral about whatever nonsense he is being forced to observe from the stairs

It's probably the dog. The dog is always up to something stupid. Smudge here is being patient and stoic about it.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

A Scamperbeast, actually scampering!

Saja the cat, sprinting in the yard

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 21/07/2026

"You were gone for several days without permission, human. But I am so glad you are back I have left you a special gift in your shoes. You're welcome."

Sugar, looking very sweet and not and all like a serial shoe pooper

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

"I'm not lurking. I'm observing with intent."

Saja, lurking at the top of the living room cat climb.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 13/07/2026

Today is apparently a high water mark in the annals of "Can't Even"

Spice the cat, who just can't even with this right now

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 08/07/2026

Be a hero to a new generation of Scamperbeasts!

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

"Yes, I AM the pretty, pretty princess, now adore me as is my due."

Sugar the cat, being adorable, demanding tribute in the form of pets.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

And now, Smudge's review of the piece of fried bologna he was just provided: Quite good, actually

Smudge is licking his lips in quite a satisfied manner.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 04/07/2026

"What the hell are they doing setting off fireworks for? It's still light outside!"

Spice the cat looking out the window toward the direction of fireworks going off. Indeed, it is still light outside, which makes the fireworks especially questionable.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 02/07/2026

Saja is in training to be a Certified Luggage Inspector and he takes his training very seriously

Saja the kitten inside a carry-on, inspecting it closely

Saja appears to be experiencing Kitten's First Existential Crisis

Saja, staring into the middle distance as if the very nature of existence is too weighty to bear. A Churu might fix that.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

Smudge: "Spice doesn't know this yet but I am totally about to bat at her ears." Spice: "Oh, I know."

Smudge on the top level of the office cat tree, looking performatively innocent. Spice, on the second level, is giving him a semi-open side-eye.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 11/06/2026

Saja offers you the most tender and tasteful of bleps.

Saja, sprawled on an ottoman, his pink little tongue barely sticking out and offering a contrast against his black fur

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 05/06/2026

"The human's shirt does not have nearly enough cat hair on it. I can fix that."

Sugar the cat, immediately before depositing a truly prodigious amount of hair on the human's shirt.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 02/06/2026

Smudge appears to be questioning his life choices

Smudge the cat, propped up into a human-like sitting position on the couch, appearing to wonder if disemboweling rodents is all there is to life

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 01/06/2026

To begin the month of June, Smudge offers up the rare but valuable TussleMlem™, with an assist from Saja

Smudge and Saja are wrestling on the carpet and Smudge's tongue is touching his nose.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 31/05/2026

Porch panther

We appear to have a programming dispute

"What do you mean, 'why can't I lay in the cat bed like a normal person'? This IS normal!"

Saja the kitten half out of the cat bed, draping his legs over a table.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 15/05/2026

You need a little scrunge in your life

Smudge, with a very smirky scrunge look as he is caught mid-yawn

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 14/05/2026

"Why are we lurking under the kitchen table just before dinner? Why, no reason. No reason at all."

Smudge and Saja, planning their ascent from floor and chair up to the table. It was not successful.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 08/05/2026

"You typed WHAT"

Smudge the cat, behind the monitor and keyboard of my computer, looking shocked, shocked

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 30/04/2026

"I have notes about your most recent portrait of me"

Spice the cat, standing on the keyboard of the computer whose monitor bears a photo of her.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 27/04/2026

Saja has been introduced to the concept of rain and is not sure he is a fan of it

Saja on the porch, looking out while rain happens just off the porch, and appears consternated.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 25/04/2026

Smudge in his Fortress of Solitude, ie, a laundry basket with a blanket over it.

Smudge treating himself to a nap now that the laundry basket has been emptied of everything but him. There are toe beans present.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 23/04/2026

"Don't speak to me or my son ever again"

Sugar looking rather forbidding whilst the human looks on behind her, vaguely surprised.

The human is being informed that, contrary to its own opinion, it is not yet time for it to stop being a cat couch

Sugar the cat, putting out a paw to stop the human from getting out of bed.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 03/04/2026

Smudge, a perfectly normal cat who is absolutely not here to consume your soul

Smudge, teeth bared and eyes rolled back into his skull. Is he yawning? Or is he an ACTUAL DEMON? Probably, yawning. Probably.

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 31/03/2026

Remember that when you look into the abyss the abyss looks back into you

Saja the kitten looking into a lighted toilet bowl in the darkness

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 29/03/2026

"You were away for a week, human. This is simply unacceptable."

Spice the cat, looking annoyed but ultimately relieved that the humans have returned from their vacation (she and all the other pets had a sitter for the duration).

The Scamperbeasts @scamperbeasts.bsky.social · 20/03/2026

THE MIGHTY HUNTER LEAPS ONTO THE BACK OF HIS PREY TO DRAG IT DOWN INTO OBLIVION

Saja the kitten snuggling up to Charlie the dog, who, it must be noted, looks not in the least concerned.

Saja once again looking out of the human's office window to spy a bird.
