For Oliver, his bedtime routine. Once he thinks I'm getting ready to go to bed, he'll sit by the stairs. Once I get there, he runs as fast as he can up the stairs and then looks behind him to make sure I'm still coming. Then he runs to the bedroom, again stopping and looking. Then when I go to the bathroom he runs back out of the bedroom to join me while I pee and brush my teeth–I leave the door cracked for him and he pushes in with his head. While I'm getting ready he skitters in and out of the bathroom being annoyed with me. Then finally when I go towards the bedroom he runs and does a flying leap into the bed. (Which means that sometimes when my partner is already in bed he lands right on his dick 😅). He runs over to my side of the bed and lays down and then I slither my way in. I'm a side sleeper, so I turn over and get myself tucked all in and comfy. And then he goes up to sit on my butt like it's his little kitty cat sofa.

He doesn't sleep with us all night but he almost always comes to bed with me and I just love that he has his little routine and that I'm part of it. 🥹

These would definitely be Oliver's.

Grindr

Bumble

This is Oliver. I mostly call him:

• Little Boyyyyyyy! (Singsong, obviously)
• Beautiful Baby
• Little Baby Man
• Stinky Boy
• Goofy Little Guy
• Crunch Boy (when he's eating)
• Whiny Baby (when he's feeling talkative)

Oh and my partner calls him Ollie.

Mine is Oliver. He was fostered as a 2 week old kitten by my brother-in-law. After his divorce Oliver came to live with us, he's been with us for almost two years now. I have had other pets but I've never felt this close to another creature.

He loves to be near me and comes running when I call for him. Every night when I get ready to go upstairs to bed, he waits at the stairs for me, then runs up as fast as he can, then turns around to make sure I'm still following. He runs down the hall to jump up on my bed and wait in my spot, then kneads and snuggles and purrs and it just fills my heart with such joy. He's afraid of most people, but he loves me unconditionally.

I joke that we're both have an anxious attachment style because we were taken from our mothers too early, but I really do think that we understand each other and the need to feel safe.

Maybe this is dramatic but I truly don't know how I could live without him.

My little blue point was a foster! Idk how someone could have abandoned this precious baby at 2 weeks.

Sansa is so beautiful and majestic! 💖

Once they've got you locked down they take off the mask 😭 DARVO

Things I love about this comment:

1. Singing Emmerly and Ivory
2. Emmerly's mlem matching the cat food bag
3. "Staredycat Sister's"
4. The fact that Char Char is a tortoiseshell, because I think they look like orange cats that got stuck in a sooty chimney

I have ADHD and can't seem to actually finish a god damn project, but starting them is easy! So...

Woodworking/carving:

• spoonula that I literally just need to finish sanding
• trinket bowl
• need to bleach and oil a dozen cheese knives I otherwise finished six months ago lol
• espresso tamper
• compost tamper

Sewing:

• a bunch of swaddle blankets for some pregnant friends
• UPF fabric kaftan for the beach
• slipcover for my office chair

The last pic has big "phone home" vibes 👽

Especially after running to the carpet 😅

I love Lamp 🥹

I'm imagining him throwing himself against the cage door begging for pets and knowing that you were the ones who would give them.

Percy 🥹 that is indeed very cute. He's communicating!

Fully Loaded Potato is perfection.

The other day I had lightning strike super close to my house (about 2 seconds to hear the huge thunder crack). It occurred to me that I didn't actually know how lightning worked so I looked it up, reminded me that nature is fucking wild. And then, you're right, we saw that and were like "let's get it in our house fellas"

Loling at the Predator sounds, it's so true. I think she is definitely having a conversation with you!

These are beautiful! I love the diversity of texture in the different tendrils.

"they use their paws as tongues on us!"

Oh this is for sure the teaser pic for his OnlyPaws

Okay but say more about the project
