cats

Sat down to take a break between some chores I've been doing around the house, this is Ripley's favorite time to strike 💖

Song from video clip is 405 by Metronomy and Biig Piig, if anyone is curious

Tasselhoff is the most lapiest of cats I have ever had. She is incapable of avoiding my lap if I'm in my chair. Yet she won't sleep in the bed. Only my lap in my chair.

The character she is named after had a knife called Rabbitslayer. Unknown to him and everyone else in the book this knife would always find its way back to him. Very handy if you are a kinder that tends to misplace things through chronic distractability.

Anyway. She always finds her way back to my lap.

I love this creature so goddamn much

In true feline style, cats took their time in deciding when and where to forge bonds with humans.

According to new scientific evidence, the shift from wild hunter to pampered pet happened much more recently than previously thought - and in a different place.

I was watching Randy Feltface with my cat sitting on my lap (not pictured, you degenerates will never see my lap), and I started just belly laughing at the bookshelf on gumtree skit, and I'm drunk enough to start wondering if my cat enjoys the sensation of my laughter as much as I enjoy the sensation of her purrs. A human is a ball of anxiety that can't purr to soothe itself and a cat is an utterly ridiculous creature that can never laugh at its own silliness. We'd be entirely screwed without each other.

I got a call about a kitten hiding in a 30 foot lomy drainage pipe.

I had to borrow some tools from an auto shop across the street and it took an hour but I got a little bugger out.

Within 15 minutes they handed off to one of our local fosters to the great disappointment of my wife who decided she wanted to keep it

the moment she saw it.
