Critters!

Bad news: Pixie is in the hospital - he stopped drinking and eating on saturday, took him in today.
Good news: His bloodwork was fine, nothing wrong with liver, kidneys or his blood.

Likely problem? Salmonella. Nothing you cure, you just got to adress the symptoms or the cat can die.
Edited to add: Salmonella goes away on its own, but a cat can die from the symptoms, so the vets got to treat the symptoms. Bit like a really, really bad stomach flu.

So, one night in hospital and he should be back to normal tomorrow.

@Goblin

Poor guy! I hope he feels better soon.

[JinShei]

@Goblin Poor little chap!

[boneghazi]

Aww. Hope he feels better soon. I had salmonella as a kid and it was friggin rough.

[surreality]

OK, so, I lied. I also came back to share this link -- https://imgur.com/a/dE5PmGB -- to album of flouf. (Ignore my messy as fuck desk, lord knows I try to.)

Her antics have been getting me and the husband through; hopefully her silliness will give y'all a reason to smile, too.

I could admire cute pussies all day.

I mean kitties, of course.

Do not actually post pictures of —

I only wish I had a picture, but I do not.

Weaselwobble vs. Square Tissue Box: 0/2

It's that she got her head stuck in the empty box, and was so 'you fucker!' she dove after it and got her head stuck in it again, then kept backing up into things until she capsized and turtled, knocking shit over everywhere that makes me facepalm... while giggling constantly every time I see a tissue box since.

I emerged from my studio, only to have my husband ask, "What was all that noise?"

I simply held up the empty tissue box, and pointed to the cat, who was sitting next to me daintily on the floor, staring shame-faced at ground.

Me: "We need a constant go-pro with this cat."
Husband: "For posterity." <could no longer form words after that from the cackling>
Cat: <cringes and scuttles downstairs, looking over her shoulder the whole time in our direction like, 'racka-fracka-bastages'>

I wish I could have gotten a screenshot. Telemed Webex meeting with one of my doctors this morning on my laptop. Logan sneaks in, and suddenly leaps into me, and starts giving me all the kisses.

Thankfully, my doctor is a dog guy who wants a dog, and thought Logan was adorable.

Draw me like one of your French girls, Jack

[surreality]

@GreenFlashlight She actually has a pose like that, though the only shots of it I have are blurry and the floor is too much of a mess. (We even call it that pose.)

She sleeps on her back, back feet sticking straight up in the air with her toes curled in, front half-flopsed over to the side, usually one paw right over her nose, somehow still all sprawl.

[sahin]

PSSSST.

Heard ya'll were soliciting cat pictures here.

[Cupcake]

Hello you all deserve this

[sahin]

@Cupcake

Rock! Hello good boy!

[Macha]

@Cupcake Hello puppers. Pet them for me, please!

[Auspice]

[Wretched]

Lily wanted a bandanna too.

^ How to store your extra cats.

(Also how to keep them from climbing on your desk while you're working.)

No such thing as an EXTRA cat.

Also looks a little like one of my no longer here little girls. There any Russian Blue in her?

[Aria]

@TNP We would assume. All of our cats were strays, so who knows?

And we have five. FIVE. We definitely have some extra cats that I wish we could store for the future.
