I mean.. it just never ends.. 😭 I was driving home, and there, on the road, sits this poor little #kitten, starved, tired, resigned.. So kitten no. 5 now, and I have no more rooms left for quarantine 😰 I'm running out of kitten food, dewormers and my nerves. #ItNeverEnds #CatRescue #CatsOfBluesky

Tired little kitten sleeping in a soft bed

This little kitty was waiting by the road, came to me by himself and didn't even care about being in a box. Or driving. Or meeting my dog. Just so so tired and in shock..

One more #kitty post, sorry..🫣 Today we made it from "Hissss, don't touch me!!" to "Ok, you can feed me.." to " Well, maaaybe I actually don't hate touching so much?" 😆 The brave gray girl even climbed on my back. Lets call it progress and sneak out now.. 😅🥰 #rescues #catsOfBluesky #kittyLove

My poor mare has colic, so we've been walking every 2 hours day and night, sun, rain and snow, for 8 days now. And she developed an abscess on her hind foot 😓 BUT she seems to be doing better 🙏 And her hoof boots have a doggy paw print on the bottom to really confuse the neighbors 😅 Wish us luck! 🤞

A photo of an art print featuring a digital painting of a South Asian masculine-presenting or non-binary character wearing a blue kurta sitting in a desert made of pink sparkling sand. In the background are four staffs with sprouts of leaves climbing up from the ground. The figure has a contemplative look as they sift through the sand in front of them with their raised hand. As they watch the sand trickle down the ground, a rainbow magically forms within it.

I have put together a very interim post-fire wish list on Amazon while I sit here waiting to find out what's wrong with the air conditioning in the car. Thank you ALL so much for the support to this point. Losing absolutely everything to the fire was very shit. www.amazon.com.au/hz/wishlist/...

A very singed book in the rubble of my entirely destroyed house. The book is destroyed, but you can read that the title is "Age of Ash" by Daniel someone. This is the remains of my book advent calendar I didn't get to open.

A tree #doodle a day keeps the... art block... away? Maybe? 🤔 Anyway, I got inspired by #inktober but had to do it my way. #Artblock, go away!! ☠️ Somehow it doesn't feel so overwhelming if it's just a doodle 🫣 I'm even keeping it up through November for now! 🫡

I tried to finish a digital painting from June, but gave up.. 😖 So I went for a walk with my new/old photo camera and experimented. I think I'm in love with the light and the hints of autumn colors in the forest.. 😅🥰 A bit baroque-like? 🤔 Need more practice.. #photography #forest #woods #loveNature

Both girls operated, hopefully successfully 🤞 Mommy Ronda had her second removal of tumors on her mammary glands, and her baby Frika was spayed. Ronda was in a very poor state.. And to think all this could have been avoided with one simple and cheap procedure years ago 😥 #CatRescue #catsOfBlueSkys

Yes, Ronda is just an old, abandoned #tabbyCat with mammary tumors, no teeth and big paws - but also the cutest, patient and funny little-kitty-at-heart that's really enjoying her life now 🥰❤️ My right index finger is still ruined BTW, but at least I'm out of the hospital. 🤦‍♀️ So still no art from me 🤷

No art for now, since I had an "incident" while catching a panicky cat (to have her spayed. Not one of our cats this time!) The vet took one look at my bleeding and said "oh, that's me almost every day. Let's fix this." I'd say she did a pretty artsy job with the bandages, don't you think? 😆😅❤️

Skratek @skratek.bsky.social · 11/07/2024

Mommy Ronda had an operation today. What we hoped was a simple spaying turned out to be removal of several tumors. And she was pregnant again! 😱 I have no idea how, since she gave birth to little Frika about 2.5 months ago, and was isolated since. 🤷‍♀️ #catRescue #catsOfBluesky #PetNeuter #ItNeverEnds
