iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Came home early yesterday, not feeling my best, so I decided to take it pretty easy today. I am very lucky to have a couple of relaxation coaches to help in my endeavor.

I have a Big Ask from our community. Many of you will remember our graduates Pikachu and Eevee, who were adopted together. Eevee had dealt with some very challenging chronic diarrhea while she was a kitten, but before adoption, we figured out a food that worked for her & she was all better (thread)

I found a baby picture of my Nevi! It turns out she’s actually 10 years old and was a bottle baby at the very same shelter where I volunteer now. I’ve only had her for about 2 1/2 years, so I didn’t know her whole history. Anyway, here’s the cat tax.

Color of photograph of a tiny, domestic, short hair, brown tabby, tuxedo kitten, reclining in a fuzzy white bed. Most of her body is covered with a red blanket. She has a tiny little pink nose and she is so young that her eyes are still blue. She has a trademark white squiggle between her eyes.

Color photograph of a domestic short hair, brown tabby, tuxedo cat. It is the same cat as pictured in the kitten photo, just about 10 years later. in this photo, she is lying in a heated, fuzzy cat bed, which is surrounded by a fuzzy blanket. She has her mouth open because she is making royal decree. She still has her trademark white squiggle between the eyes.

They said all of her scans looked boring, which is good. The working theory is a URI, so she was sent home with antibiotics and it’ll be about a week before we get the test results back on that. She was breathing much better when I took her home, so I’m cautiously optimistic.

Erica Layton @snarica.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

I’m at the emergency vet with my girl, Nevi. She’s having some breathing problems and I’m hoping that it’s just a mild Upper Respiratory Infection and it’s treatable. She sneezed and blew snot all over the poor vet assistant who came to get her. 🤞🤧😷

My favorite thing about my team is that Ichiro, who retired in 2019, shows up for practices, puts on a uni, and works out like he could be called into a game today. That must be so inspiring for the young players. And I hope they casually walk up and say, “Excuse me. May I ask you something?”

Tig: “Dey stolz my blud n sayz ai iz FAT!”

The color of photograph of a brown tabby tuxedo cat hiding in a green cat tree. His eyes are wide open and he looks a little shell shocked. He is staring a little to the side of the camera as if saying “nobody knows the trouble I’ve seen.” There is a light colored, patterned pillowcase above that he is peeking out from.

Watching #TraitorsAU season 3 on this snoozy Monday morning. Cher’s favorite is Rhys. She loves the bright hair and the bobbles on his jacket. She aims to one day be as stylish as him!

In the still are two contestants; Rachael Evren on the left, and Rhys Nicholson on the right. Rhys has bright red hair and is wearing a black jacket with small pearl bobbles spread over it in a random pattern.

Happy Caturday from these two baby girls on their first ever Caturday in foster! Cher and Dionne are enjoying their nice, cozy bed and having little lounge time. #FosterKittens #CaliGirls #Clueless

Color photograph of two small, fluffy calico kittens. Both are lounging in a gray, fuzzy kitten bed. The picture is taken from above. The kitten at the top of the photo, Dionne, is a classic calico. She is in a loaf position. The kitten at the bottom of the photograph, Cher, is a dilute calico, with more muted coloring than her sister. She is in a more relaxed, curled up position.

The new foster girlies have names! My last group didn’t get named until day eight, but these girls had names within a couple hours. Meet Cher and Dionne! #FosterKittens #CaliGirls #Clueless

Color photograph of a tiny, dilute calico kitten, Cher, sticking her head out of a gray fleece critter cuddler. Behind the kittens face is my face., But only part of my nose, and one eye are visible. The kitten has a pink nose, with white around it, as well as a small white blaze, reaching up the bridge of her nose. Above her nose, blaze is a round buff colored splotch. It kind of looks like she has a torch running up her nose with a big flame on her forehead.

Color photograph of a tiny calico kitten, Dionne, sticking her head out of a gray fleece critter cuddler. Behind the kittens face is my face, but it is obscured by the cute kitten. One side of the kittens muzzle is white, the other side of her muzzle is slightly orange. She has a diagonal white blaze running up her nose, that ends in an orange burst. It almost looks like her pink nose is a meteor with a white flame and orange at the end.

I used MapQuest for my drive today. It was very cute, my questie was the unicorn. I’m hoping they continue to improve it in the future, but it does what it needs to do for now, in addition to not bowing to the ridiculous whims of this administration.

Bay Area friends: A friend found these small kittens behind a gas station and we've been trying to find them a home for almost two months. For now, they live in a small bathroom. Would you consider adopting? They are vaxxed, neutered, and incredibly affectionate. Please help!
