Happurry Hallowe’en from Count Korkula! The Count was out on the prowl when the moon was up, fangs polished, and whiskers sharp, spreading spooky charm across the village! Keep your treats close and your necks covered... Motto of the Day: A little bite never hurts anyone! #korkykatt

Trump threw himself a birthday parade. Cost millions. No one came. Except Korky. Who lay down out of sheer disbelief. The salute? Not accepted. Motto of the Day: Lounge in protest. Let fools salute the silence. #korkykatt #kattofthepeople #notmypresident #catresistance #kkknowsbest

Korky, my tuxedo cat, lounges alone on a row of empty arena seats, while a man with swept-back blonde hair salutes him from the arena floor, and we all know who that is -Trump on his failed birthday parade. The scene is stark, with the cat appearing unimpressed and the man obliviously reverent.

Dopo la colazione. Soft piano. Foam ball, presumed missing, resurfaces from under the sofa of blue velvet, where it’s clearly been conspiring. I gave chase. It rolled with its own intent. Then diverted. Even Korky Korleone didn’t see that twist coming. Revenge… will be slow. And molto stylish.

Thursday Tender Tribute: V for Victory, V for Veneration. 80 years since V-E Day, Korky Kornelius Katt raises a proud paw from his windowsill. Keeper of Peace. Whiskered Watchkatt. We remember the brave hearts who stood firm, for freedom, for tomorrow. #VEDay #KorkySalutes #WhiskersOfWar

May the FIFTH be with you… We overslept. Jedi Korky reporting for duty, fashionably late, armed with a tuna-sabre and a suspicious amount of catnip. The Meow Awakens… and demands snacks! #korkykatt

Korky, my tuxedo cat, stars as a plush Jedi hero in a spoof Star Wars toy package titled ‘The Meow Awakens.’ He stands proudly in a cosmic-themed box holding a tuna-shaped lightsaber, flanked by tiny mouse-droid sidekicks, ready to pounce on the Dark Side, one treat at a time.

A tail in three acts: 1. A mysterious, majestic ginger cat began creeping in through the cat flap at 12:30am each night for the week or so, silently raiding Korky's kibble like a feline jewel thief. #gingersnap #mainecoon #midnightsnacker

On the stairs. One paw on yesterday, one on tomorrow. I think that’s what missing a toy feels like. Dusty’s scent is fading in the bin! Hummie says something coming... crickety? I don’t know what that means. For now, I stay half-zooom, half-zoomed out. Love is a funny sort of furball. #korkykatt

In a world often chasing power, #PopeFrancis chose kindness. In a time of pride, he lived with humility. He reminded us that true greatness comes from serving others, quietly and with love. He walked softly through a loud world. May we follow that path and his spirit of compassion stay with us. 🕯🦋

Saturday Stretched Sloth: Wrapped in fluff, draped in dreams! No room for Hummie. The faux sheepskin is mine.The pillows are mine. The floor is yours. Choose your battles wisely, Hummie! #catlife #tuxiepower #staffproblems #korkykatt

My tuxedo cat Korky is lying on Ikea faux fur rug, and blue velvet sofa, stretched out posing in splendour backed by puffed cushions leaving little room for me! Quite adorable!

Thursday TalkTalk Touch: Emerging from the crinkled velvet shadows of Baggie, I sought meaning… then I saw it. Sleek, warm, slightly greasy from Hummie’s porridge fingers. The phone. My muse. My TalkTalk temptress. I gave it a nudge. It swooned. It made the first move. I just rubbed back. Honest!

Hoppy Easter to all... To my dear furriends far and wide: May your hearts be light, your naps long, and your treats abundant. And may your humoids always remember, never step over a sleeping cat. Especially one in bunny ears. #Easter

Saturday Sojourn Stillness & Starlings: I’ve been sat on the sill, just behind Hummie’s screen, listening for whispers in the wind. The starlings up in the gutter sounded almost like pawsteps… and for a moment, I thought it might be my late furriends calling down from Cloud 9. Still looking.

Left my seat for two minutes to grab a cuppa… came back to find His Royal Loafness has annexed it. . I’m now working from the piano stool while Lord Korkington oversees operations from the plush throne. Send help. And maybe a second chair. . #KorkyKatt #CatBoss #LoafLife #WorkingForTheCat #SeatTaken

My tuxedo cat Korky is curled up comfortably on an office chair, sitting on a white cushion next to a cream knitted blanket. The chair is positioned at a desk with a keyboard, notebooks, a colourful floral mug, and other work items. The human’s stool is visible beside the desk, implying the cat has taken over the chair. Human is now sitting on piano stool out of sight!

Hummie says I’ve gone to ground. It's not wrong. The world’s gone mad with tariffs and troubles, so I’ve retreated to me crinkle cave. Just a paw, here and there. Enough to keep Pinky Fish in line. Wake me when sanity’s back in fashion. #Korkyinthebag #toomanytariffsnotenoughtreat

Saturday Silent Sulk: Curiosity drew me to the shed. Then Hummie powered up the mower. The next thing I know is a neighbourhood chorus of buzzing beasts. I’ve retreated to the Jacobean Fortress. Do not disturb unless bearing poultry! #TuxedoTales #korkykatt #MowerMadness #JudgeKorky #SaturdaySulk

Hummie and I have stood up for #ukraine since 2022, even more so after the debacle! Hummie says those comments from the Oval Office were an absolute disgrace, flippant, callous, and deeply insulting to those fighting for their survival. Keep those whiskers twitching in defiance! #yourefiredtrump

Time for a bit of a wash up, and forecast on the British weather - more rain today, says Korky! No surprises there!

Stephanie Connell @stephanieconnell.co.uk · 12/02/2025

Navigating the sitting room is a perilous task. One must always be on high alert! The Hummie is unpredictable. Will it take me to the V*ts? The dreaded brushing? A sudden grab-and-snatch? A sneak-attack play session? Or scritches? I walk with caution… but also, you know, hope. That's life!

000

Stephanie Connell @stephanieconnell.co.uk · 09/02/2025

Deep breath, fluff up the whiskers. Here goes! Ringing! My paw is shaking. Will Tillikins say yes or no? What if she thinks I’m just another tom on the prowl? I need to impress her, maybe mention my expert cupboard-opening skills? Or that I let Hummie live rent-free? Ooh, hanging up! #Valentine

Hummie says there’s a lot of unrest in the world; it feels a little bogged down. I've a few simple words; never forget, you are always the bigger katt than you think! Stand in the light, let your shadow grow, and own your space. Confidence is everything. I think I might open a klinic! #korktythebold

Thursday Throwback Tail: Behold my impeccable kattwalk skills from our old territory - grace, poise, and just the right amount of sass. Meanwhile, Hummie is sulking because I performed my pre-dawn opera at full volume. It currently resembles a very disgruntled, wrung-out dishcloth. No regrets.

Stephanie Connell @stephanieconnell.co.uk · 27/01/2025

Fluffin’ furballs, Hummie! Must you constantly stalk me with that flashy thing? Every paw stretch, every scratch, click, click, click! Enough already! I’m a katt, not some Kitty Kardashian, or is it Kardassian from Steff Trek, or whatever that show you like so much?

Stephanie Connell @stephanieconnell.co.uk · 26/01/2025

I'm head-over-paws in love with Smelly, my furrbulous new stick! Hummie, busy as a meece at a cheese festival, felt guilty about me home alone. It brought me Smelly! The joy! Endless fun whapping, throwing, sniffing, and prancing around. Smelly, youse are the katt's whiskers!

Rescued an injured pigeon, rushed to the emergency vets in Swindon, looking like the epitome of chaos, teary-eyed, slip-ons on the wrong feet, and warning the pigeon about road bumps like it could understand me. Spotted this iron horse at the traffic lights on the way back. Hope 'Pidgy' is okay. 🤞🏻

Hummie, my ever so generous humoid, kindly chose to play with me this morning instead of yelling at that glowing talktalk of doomy news. I keep reminding it that smacking Dusty around is the purrfect stress relief, but does it listen? Nope! Typical Hummie! #cats #destresser
