Most of the time I am happy and grateful to be able to walk to work. Today it was 96 degrees when I left the house and 99 when I came home. FFS.

It's hot on this #caturday. Only a fool, or a human, goes outside in this nonsense. Here, we will watch your shoes and prevent you from being fools. Also, the A/C blows right here on this bench.

The stage: a three-shelf shoe rack against a white half-wall. There are many shoes. On the top shelf, two cats, both black and white, lounge in nearly identical positions beside each other. The larger cat on the right stares at the camera. He looks bored or hot or both. The smaller, short-haired cat on the left has his chin on his paw. Both show right hind paw toe beans, mixed pink and black.

11 mosquito bites in as many minutes, while sitting indoors in a closed room reading Dungeon Crawler Carl 5, all on feet/ankles. A random curse? Bad luck? A single boss mosquito?

International Cat Day is no excuse to skip naps.

Two cats, black and white, unalike in dignity. The larger, fluffier cat sleeps in a graceful curl against the treadle of an antique Singer sewing machine. The smaller, short-haired cat dozes in sprawl, half on his back, hind legs splayed to the ceiling.

It’s a little warm in here.

A moment of peace before kitten shenanigans resume.

A large, fluffy black and white cat crouches on a middle platform of a tall cat tree, facing resolutely away from the paparazzi. Behind him, a half-grown black and white kitten stares at the paparazzi, fully aware of how stinking cute he is. There are paintings and masks on the wall behind the cat tree, and a window to the left, which is totally overexposing the cats, but the paparazzi wanted to document this rare moment of peaceful, almost-touching coexistence.

May your #caturday be spent with your favorite people, doing your favorite things.

A big fluffy black and white cat sleeps curled up against a leather patchwork bag on a sheepskin rug. A small black and white kitten is stretched out, asleep, perpendicular to the larger cat. Their legs and paws are overlapped and touching.

Oh, online vet pharmacy. The anniversary of me using your service is not for celebrating with generous coupons. I needed chemo for Murdercat. I don't need it anymore, and have not since November. There is no celebration here.

But what if we made *friends* with the dragon?

A small white kitten with a black patch over one eye relaxes under the head and neck of large, brightly colored dragon stuffy easily three times bigger. The kitten looks smug.

Kodama would like to be your friend on this fine #caturday.

a small kitten with a black patch of fur over one eye is lying on the top platform of a cat tree at eye level. He stretches his paw toward the camera. His toebeans are pink and tiny.

The world is very large when you are very small. A little sooner than planned, but such is the way of cats. Kodama, meet the world.

a small kitten, mostly white with a near-perfect black spot on his ribs, and a black mask over one eye, sits on a red and black cat tree looking out the window. Whatever is out there, he is fascinated.

the end of an era For the first time in since I started living with cats, back in, oh, 1996 or so... there are no black cats in my house. Pooka was my first--cat, black cat--and I spotted him at the petstore in the mall (I know) in a cage out in the middle of the shop with the rest of his litter,…

For the first time in since I started living with cats, back in, oh, 1996 or so... there are no black cats in my house. Pooka was my first--cat, black cat--and I spotted him at the petstore in the mall (I know) in a cage out in the middle of the shop with the rest of his litter, in a big wire cage.

Happy 18th birthday to Louhi Philomena Hepzibah Rue, the runt of her litter, who makes up for a lack of size with an excess of sass.

The Patchwork Terror has a sunbeam and birds on this freakishly warm #caturday

A fluffy black and white cat is lying on the top shelf of a cat tree with his chin propped on the edge, squinting out an open window into a sun beam. There must be birds out there.

One small cat, self-folding.

I challenged my students to dress up for extra credit, and I lead by example. (Also I love collecting the expressions from students as I march across campus. Some smile. Some whisper. Some--the few also in costume--make eye contact and nod knowingly.)

a blond woman wearing a tall witch hat festooned with feathers and a sheer veil hung with plastic spiders side-eyes the camera. Will she teach her writing class like this? SHE WILL.

National Black Cat Day! Tinycat & Murdercat share the cat-tree, a momentous occasion, b/c no one is hissing, biting, or fear-peeing because she's been pounced on by someone 2x her weight. (The very next moment, she started clawing the tree, and lo, those things came to pass, as foretold.)

The scene: a cat tree with several levels. A big fluffy black cat with green eyes sits on the penultimate level. His ears are back. Something is amiss! Below him, on the next level down and almost directly beneath him, sits a small, very petite shorthair black cat with wide yellow eyes. She looks like trouble.

Whether you protest or not on this #caturday, remember to take time to rest, and remember to bring your bestie.

This floofy gremlin had a flawless dental yesterday. I just need y’all to observe how thick and deep his fur is. #caturday

A fluffy black and white cat reclines underneath a coffee table. Extended in front of him is a four leg that has been shaved for surgery. There is about a half a centimeter depth difference between the shaved part of his leg and the fur around it

PSA, y'all: if you're over a certain age, maybe get your MMR antibodies titered. Yours truly is still immune to rubella, but not measles or mumps (!). Time for a booster, please and thank you, while vaccines are still readily available.

There IS a cat under all that fur. We have proof! Murdercat doesn't seem to mind. It's hot. He has new ventilation. *I* mind b/c of what the ultrasound found. He takes his pills well, though, so one day at a time, until there are no more.

It's #Caturday and also 20-odd degrees hotter than normal and the Patchwork Terror hasn't put away his spring coat yet.

In the sunny corner of the office sits a short grey cat-tree with a partial tube as its top level. A black and white cat lies stretched in that tube, with one hind leg outthrust from one end, and forepaws dangling from the other. He peers through a hole in the tube as if annoyed at the photographer.

A grey and rainy #Caturday. Tinycat and the Patchwork Terror share the view.

Look what came in the mail today! The Martian Contingency (thanks, @maryrobinettekowal.com!) I look forward to a weekend of reading with Murdercat’s supervision.
