Happy to see that #Caturday is in full swing. I have a few photos to share, but I haven't actually been a cat steward for many years. #MastoCats #CatsOfMastodon

Below, a kitty from my time in #Santiago, #Chile back in 2019. #Chileans love their pets... three #Cat cafés in Santiago when I was there, and you'll never see happier street #Dogs.

In solidarity with all political prisoners, and #Mapuche resistance.
Against police States & fascist regimes.
