Loki hates cats. Except for Chewy... But I'm pretty sure he thinks Chewy is just a weird dog. #kitten #catsofbluesky #dogsofbluesky

A small white and tan chihuahua, Loki, sits upright next to Chewbacca (Chewy), a relaxed grey tabby cat resting on a patterned Kirkland Signature pet bed. The bed is lined with a light bone-patterned blanket, with a colourful Paw Patrol cushion propped up behind them.

Two very different sleep styles. 🤣 #catsofbluesky

Peanut, a petite 5-pound Maine Coon cat with fluffy, long-haired brown and black tabby fur, curled tightly asleep in a ball on a pastel patchwork quilt next to a brown leather case.

Chewbacca, a short-haired grey tabby cat, stretched out fast asleep on his back with paws extended, resting inside a grey plush pet bed stacked on top of a red, fast-food French fry package-shaped cat bed.

His head still hasn't caught up to his body, but the busiest addition to the house does find time to relax between his taunting of his older siblings. #catsofbluesky #kitten

A medium close-up, eye-level shot framed through the arched entrance of a plush, dark grey cat tree cubby. Inside, Chewy, a young brown-and-black mackerel tabby kitten, lies curled up comfortably on the carpeted floor. He is resting facing forward, with his body turned slightly sideways and his striped, bushy tail curled neatly around his side and hindquarters. His front paws are resting forward on the ledge of the opening. Chewy looks directly at the camera with large, bright eyes, alert upright ears, and distinct dark tabby facial markings with warm tan accents around his muzzle. Soft daylight filters in from an opening on the right side of the enclosure, gently illuminating his fur.

A high-angle, top-down shot of Chewy, a brown-and-black mackerel tabby kitten, lounging across two stacked 12-pack cardboard cartons of red Mountain Dew resting on light-toned, warm wood flooring. Chewy is perched squarely along the top of the boxes in a relaxed loaf pose, with his front paws folded slightly over the edge and his fluffy striped body aligned lengthwise across the red packaging. He wears a small teal-blue collar with a bell tucked under his chin and tilts his head upward toward the camera with wide, curious green-hazel eyes. A plain white cabinet or door base is visible in the background against the wood floor.

Our first successful foster is up for adoption starting tomorrow! I'm so happy we got her to this point, because the first two weeks we weren't sure she'd ever be adoptable. I'm also bawling because lil Lynx has stolen our hearts. But she can't be a fail, since the last one already was. #kitten

A nearly three-month-old tabby kitten named Lynx curls up inside a light blue ruffled fleece bed on a black chair, looking directly up into the camera with wide hazel eyes.

So we've been fostering a kitten the last few weeks. He's a very handsome boy named Chewbacca, because his estimated birthday was May 4. #kitten This is him, eating his first meal post neutering. 1/

Chewbacca has large, dark eyes, prominent ears, and a smudge of food on their nose. A soft, textured dark gray blanket is visible in the background.

Where was I this morning? (answer in alt text)

A scenic landscape view taken from a hill on the west side of New Brunswick Highway 11 in Bouctouche, looking across a sparkling blue body of water on a bright, sunny day. In the distance, a long wooden boardwalk over the water connects a small white lighthouse to the Acadian cultural attraction, Le Pays de la Sagouine, which features a cluster of colorful theatrical buildings on the water backed by a dense green forest. A distinct, flat bank of white clouds rests just above the distant tree line under a clear blue sky. In the foreground, a portion of a white building with a dark roof, several evergreen trees, a chain-link fence, and the highway are visible.

Despite being locals, sometimes it's fun to go do the tourist stuff. Today we went on the tour at Giant Lobster. The chimeric lobster is my favourite.

The dish is lightly coated in brown gravy. In the blurred background, a bottle of soda, a bottle of orange juice, and a container of ketchup are visible on a dark table.

We're on an early celebration of our 6th anniversary. Supper tonight is at The Pilot House in Charlottetown. Just from the quality of the cocktails this was a great idea.

In the foreground, an Old Fashioned sits in a crystal rocks glass with a large ice cube, garnished with a bright red cherry and an orange twist. Slightly behind it to the left stands a Sloe Royale in a stemmed coupe glass containing a deep ruby-red liquid. To the far right, a tall highball glass filled with ice water sits partially in the frame. A small table lamp provides warm backlighting to the scene.

Yeah. That's why a 24 customer outage was repaired before a 250 customer outage has even been assessed.

A screenshot of a social media post from NB Power (@NB_Power). The post text reads: "Crews worked through the night to restore emergency outages where it was safe to do so. Today we will have damage assessors, safety specialists, line crews, and arborists working together to safely restore outages. We are relocating crews to the areas of greatest impact."
Below the text is a graphic with an orange and dark blue background featuring a warning triangle icon. The graphic contains bilingual text: "Outage information / Renseignements sur les pannes" and "Check outages in your area / Vérifier les pannes dans votre région." It lists two URLs: energienb.com/cartepannes and nbpower.com/outagemap. The post is dated December 20, 2025, at 7:42 a.m.

Someone enjoys the new catio... Perhaps too much. #catsofbluesky #cats #kitties

This is a lovely close-up photograph of Peach, a female orange tabby cat, enjoying herself inside her catio.
Viewed through the catio's black mesh screen, Peach is captured in a moment of bliss, rubbing her head against some catnip. Her face is gently pressed against the netting, highlighting the lighter-colored patch on her head. She is resting on a brown and black woven mat, and the sunlight casts the grid pattern of the mesh across her orange fur.

Halloween costume test time. Loki likes being a firefighter... Thor would rather be a dragon. #dogsofbluesky #chihuahua

This is an adorable photo of Loki the chihuahua!
Loki is ready for action, dressed in a shiny red and yellow firefighter costume. He's wearing a raincoat and a matching firefighter's hat. A closer look at the yellow badge on his hat reveals the humorous title "FIRE CHIEF" with "POOPER" written inside a star.
He is looking directly up at the camera with his large, dark eyes, wearing a very serious and intense expression that provides a funny contrast to his cute outfit. He's standing on a textured outdoor mat on what appears to be a wooden deck.
AltText by Google Gemini

This photo features another dapper chihuahua, Thor, modeling the same firefighter costume.
Thor, who has handsome black, grey, and white fur, strikes a noble and heroic pose. He is sitting on a cushioned outdoor chair with his head tilted back, gazing upward as if looking toward the horizon. The red firefighter's hat sits jauntily on his head, proudly displaying the "FIRE CHIEF POOPER" badge.
The scene is bathed in warm sunlight, casting shadows across the patio furniture. In the background, you can see a blanket with a swirling blue and yellow pattern reminiscent of Van Gogh's "Starry Night." To his right lies what appears to be the packaging for the costume.

Sometimes, every once in a while, he's a peaceful monster. #dogsofbluesky

This is a peaceful, sun-drenched photograph of a small dog relaxing outdoors.
The dog, seen from behind, has a white coat with large tan patches and prominent, alert ears, characteristic of a chihuahua or similar breed. It is lying down comfortably on a thick, beige cushion, possibly on a piece of patio furniture.
The scene is bathed in the warm, golden light of either a sunrise or sunset, which casts a gentle glow on the dog's back. The dog is looking away from the camera, seemingly gazing through a dark mesh screen, perhaps on a screened-in porch or in a gazebo.
In the foreground, there are soft, colorful objects slightly out of focus—a bright pink plush item and a hint of purple fabric—suggesting a cozy and familiar space. The overall atmosphere of the image is one of calm and quiet contentment.

Google Gemini thinks NB is a very, very interesting island full of geographic impossibilities. #ai #NB

A horribly inaccurate map of New Brunswick generated by Google Gemini. The province is an island per this map, shaped nothing like it should be. The cities are not remotely near where they should be, and the spelling on most is horrendously incorrect and some are just imagined. There are so many errors that I can't describe them all accurately. It's horrible.
