My foster cat is still kitten-less and getting bolder by the day. She has made some truly insane leaps for a gal holding 70% of her body weight in her lower half. I'm including a photo because I can't help myself, but it is unauthorized and

The cat lord giveth and the cat lord taketh away. I was sad when we had to return the kittens unexpectedly last week, but we now have a pregnant cat who could give birth any day. My husband wants to call her Virginia Slim because she is maybe the lankiest

My birthday is on Monday, so I'm writing this early in preparation for max long weekend enjoyment. My husband has some kind of mystery overnight hike planned that we'll have finished by the time you read this unless a bear has attacked us, which is not
