An orange cat sleeps stretched out on the back of a grey couch, on top of a blanket with stars. 

One front paw is out forward and one back paw hangs down the couch back. He is at peace

A black tuxedo cat named Hawkwood and a white calico cat named Lucatiel snuggle together in a slightly collapsed soft-sided purple pet carrier. 

This is actually their brother's carrier.

A black tuxedo cat named Hawkwood and a white calico cat named Lucatiel snuggle together in a slightly collapsed soft-sided purple pet carrier. This is actually their brother's carrier.

It's routine vet visit day for the Crayola Crew. I leave the carriers out all the time so the Crew doesn't get AS scared when it's time to go.

If they stay there for 30 minutes my life gets so much easier.

Although...this is Anri's carrier. Neither of these cats are Anri.

Stage 1: In the foreground, Lucatiel (a white calico cat) drapes herself over a person's leg. Her paws are sticking straight forward and her chin rests  on said leg.

In the background, her brother Hawkwood (a tuxedo cat) watches the proceedings.

Stage 2: Lucatiel endeavors to get more comfortable. Her front paws - still sticking out - droop some. Her head is angled down, more into my leg. One eye is closed.

Hawkwood is still in the background on the couch arm. I think he was trying to figure out if he could smush himself anywhere next to me.

Stage 3: Lucatiel seems to have found her position! Both eyes are closed and she's leaning heavily against my leg. Paws outstretched. Serene.

Behind her Hawkwood has finally lost interest and was staring into the kitchen

I have done the internet a disservice by only posting one of my cats.

So here is Lucatiel, getting comfortable and falling asleep in the way only cats can.

...yes Hawkwood is in the background please understand his favorite place is anywhere I'm within eyesight.

A tuxedo (black and white) cat lays sideways in a semi dark room. He appears to be "walking" along the wall.

I love this cat.

(Not shown is how fast he started to eat his tail when I turned on the light...)

A person with blue hair, wearing a purple and black striped sweater and jeans, stands on their tiptoes on a staircase leading to a loft bed. They are peering at a tuxedo cat, who is watching them.

Feeling thankful for the Crayola Crew, so I figured it would be fun to share the picture one of the Foster Moms took of me and Hawkwood interacting for the first time.

"When I saw how he looked at you, I knew he was home."

A tuxedo cat named Hawkwood sleeps with his snout resting against one paw. His mouth is partially open and a small sliver of his pink tongue is peeking out.

A white cat - Lucatiel - and a black cat -Hawkwood- are snuggling on a couch. Hawkwood has his tail draped around Lucatiel in such a way that looks a little like a black snake.

Momma: Aww, it looks like there's a little snake is on Lucatiel!

Me: NO IT DOESN'T.

(I can't unsee it)

Blueberry is a Lynx point siamese mix kitten with a gold fusted nose and big blue eyes. You can see them in this picture but he also has white feet which would make him a "snowshoe" not to be confused with a Clown Shoe. He is sitting on the top of my pillows, and behind him is my assorted garlands and photos and ornaments included a felted ball garland in rainbow colors (from Trader Joes--excellent sustainable Holiday ornament) a paper crafted hippo, and a felted whale shark, a felted triangle garland in rainbow colors (can't remember where that came from) It is kind of blurry but there is also a little set of flower lights from Ikea. 

So yeah it has been a week. My friend Emily's husband got DOGEd and no one was expecting it because he is with the DoD, and both of them have autoimmune diseases and are trying to work as long as possible and they are barely 30! Their two little girls are in Girl Scouts and every time I support them, I get a hand drawn thank you card and it usually features Blueberry because THEY LOVE HIM SO MUCH! My fridge is covered with drawings from other peoples' kids. I love that.  I cannot shake this kidney infection and I am starting to think it isn't an infection at all but something else like stones or maybe I am finally a cat and I have those crystals that cats get.  My staff scientist is leaving my non profit (work work, not side work) and going into consulting and hiring has been a drag mostly because she is perfect and I adore her work and her whole being and our tiny office of three will not be the same when she's gone. I know she isn't dying or even leaving the area but V and I will miss her so much. She really brings out the best in us. 

Ben has been in DC for the last three days for a conference which has been a difficult one for him and he was so stressed in advance of it that he didn't set me up for success at home which was problematic because I've been sick but he did apologize for that. He comes home this afternoon. Yay!

Hawkwood would like to ask you to keep being.

Thank you.

A black tuxedo cat (Hawkwood) and orange tabby cat (Anri) sit together on a grey sofa. Hawkwood is partially loafed, facing away from the camera. Anri is fast asleep, his head smushed against Hawkwood's hindquarters.

A close up of the previous picture. The black tuxedo cat (Hawkwood) is mostly out of frame. The orange tabby cat (Anri)is centered. Anri is fast asleep, his head smushed against Hawkwood's hindquarters.

We made it another week.

The reward can offer is cats.

Please enjoy Anri using Hawkwood's butt as a pillow.

Three cats sit equally spaced on a couch next to their human owner. Closest to the camera- nestled on a blue, purple ,and orange blanket - is a white calico cat. In the middle is a black tuxedo cat who is half loafed. On the armrest in the background is an orange cat, fully loafed

The Crayola Crew disagrees with my job's hybrid work policy (because it makes me leave the house).

Shadow on the ground of cat's head, but it looks very big and rounded, like she's a bear.

I love this more abstract one. A red chair on a dark grey deck. The image of the chair looks smeared vertically because the little camera swings around on her collar.

I love red chair one. It reminds me of a Francis Bacon's Pope paintings. Welcome to my brain.

Shadow of half of a cat on a cement driveway on a sunny day. The only thing that defines the shape as a cat is one ear.

Shadow of half of a cat on a cement driveway on a sunny day. The only thing that defines the shape as a cat is one ear.

Accidental Mondrian-like photo from the cat camera. The color blocks (clockwise) are the bottom corner of a brick red door, the black doorframe, a section of pale cement, then a black doormat. There's a tiny sliver of mustard yellow along the upper right edge, and tiny green sprig of wild fennel popping in on the side.

Cat's view of walking along the top of a wooden fence on a sunny day. The cat's white whiskers appear from the top of the frame, and we also see the tip of her chin.

I downloaded my Instagram images before I close that old, very small & neglected account.

I'll repost some here.

Update, Hawkwood has entered the fray and I've now lost it to two of my three cats.

Why has Anri not come for the blanket, you ask?

Because he'd rather take over my bed.

Plus side: it distracts her from trying to get on my lap while I'm writing.
Downside: It's /my/ blanket
