@binarythis I started giving the cats empty toilet rolls and same
Diego was lying on the couch earlier cuddling up with a fuzzy pink blanket. So I wrapped him up in it and upon completion said “now you look like a clitoris!” Sadly he decided he didn’t want to be a clitoris before I was able to get a picture.

Corsair of MastodonOooooh the weather outside is atrocious
But my cats are so ferocious
Since going out is a pain
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain

Just include your full mastodon link (like this: https://mas.to/@marekmcgann) in the "Websites and Social Links" section in ORCID, then include link to your ORCID record in your Mastodon profile.
Hurray for distributed digital identities!
Time for the 4th cat introduction: Matilda! Or Tilly, or MaTilly, or MaTizzleToes… Is she an otter or is she a cat? Who can say!
All our cats are rescues of some variety, but Tilly and her brother Squizzy were born into a loving foster home before we adopted them, and so have never known a day of hardship in their lives. Tilly is Anise’s baby girl. She’s very clever and does actually love a belly rub, though this turned out to be a trap

Ok, so it seems like I’m introducing a cat a day on here and today it’s Daisy’s turn!
Daisy came into our lives at the start of Melbourne’s lockdowns, when we moved to a new house and she was in the backyard…and didn’t leave. At the time we thought she was pregnant, but it turned out she had already had her kittens and our landlord had surrendered them to council.
Daisy, we are told, is Diego’s GRANDMA! She comes from the same neglectful neighbour (who is aware that we have been taking in her cats). Because she pretty much fended for herself for the first ~2 years of her life, she’s semi-feral (she doesn’t look it and she’s come a long way since we took her in, but you can’t take the wild out of the girl, y’know).
She is objectively the prettiest girl in the world, though this picture doesn’t really capture that. She loves playing “shoelace”, especially when I let her use my slippers
