re: cats; scat 

@eredien The disgust? Yeah, I bet it is. XD Nah, we were warned this was how it happens, I just... didn't need to actually SEE it happen. XD

late-night sugarfoot update (low content, silly) 

she mew
she bat a ball
i scritch

mom and kittens are healthy and content in Mother Box

other cats are accounted for, fed, and loungey

taking a day off work because our finances actually look okayish again to my utter amazement

found a perfect excuse to put off minor bureaucratic errand for work

ibs bout is finally settling down

got half a tray of bbq still in the fridge

am properly medicated, hydrated, and caffeinated

i think today will actually be sorta ok

cats; scat 

peg and i have now both directly witnessed the reason there's never any kitten poop to worry about in the Mother Box

uh thanks sugarfoot i guess

does german have a term that means "disgusted but grateful?"

you know, the same basic feeling you get when you're doing supervillainry and you say "minion, rid me of this troublesome hero" and they immediately gib them with a rocket launcher right in the middle of your posh carpeted lair

c'mon we've all been there rite? 🐯​

re: covid mention + 

@001zlnv congratulations of sorts :) relieved to hear!

Oh, and if y'all go characteristically overboard with your generosity, we'll discuss whether to return some of the cash, save it in a Kitty College Fund, or pass it along to the many, many worthy NOLA animal charities! Or maybe we'll expand our little Bast-Believer Kitty Mission to include feeding some of the adjacent colonies.

I'm a little bashful about mentioning, especially since the Drive-In Saturday fundraiser went very well (and we're so grateful), but several of y'all have asked, so...

We would still gratefully accept donations for the kitties! The best route is Paypal to egypt@urnash.com but if you prefer other options just ask me or @anthracite

We've already spent a bunch on furniture and supplies, but there's LOTS of kittenproofing left to be done and we still need to get some vet visits in.

@Phorm @anthracite Oh, the donation drive was centered around Drive-In Saturday, an old friend's bi-weekly MST3K Discord event. (I could certainly get you in on it if interested!)

Best way to donate is probably Paypal to egypt@urnash.com. Thanks sweetie! I'm sure Sugarfoot would be very grateful too if she had any abstract reasoning ability or non-mew language skills! :)

re: kitty alert (+++/"---"), mildly problematic meme 

Should be a while before they're ready or able to leave the Mother Box without assistance, but they're definitely moving around. It's a great sign, and a LOT less scary since Chief Engineer Anthracite acquired the boards and tools needed to squirmproof the undersides of the kittenarium doors, but... yikes this is all happening so fast.

kitty alert (+++/"---"), mildly problematic meme 

OH LAWD THEY TODDLIN'

kitty, poop (zero actual news) 

granted last time i thought "gosh, sugarfoot has settled down so nicely, it's finally peaceful" she went mewl-crazy and pooped on peg's yoga mat half an hour later

but gosh sugarfoot has settled down so nicely, it's finally peaceful

it's fine. i knew the job was dangerous when i took it.</superchicken>

today i am profoundly likely to get into both blaseball and hades thanks to you little morsels, so maybe it's time to take a good hard look at my memetic immune defenses XD <3

re: cat stress, cat scat (--) 

@LexYeen @JulieSqveakaroo tagging @anthracite into this because it will probably be reassuring. Thank you so much for the affirmation, yeen! <3

re: Teff art, Warning: Contents more devious than they appear 

re: collar 3d art and ic text 

@kauko Hmm, good point. No future I wanna live in is gonna have that shit. How about as a decoration in public parks?

re: collar 3d art and ic text 

@kauko In 2300, this is the new Inflatable Dancing Tube Man. Every shop has 2 or 3 of these dancing around in place outside to lure in customers.

re: cat stress, cat scat (--) 

@JulieSqveakaroo Yeah, I petted Sugarfoot thoroughly and explained that while the Food Humans are both pretty tense, we don't blame her, she's a good kitty, and we were kinda braced for this happening eventually. Honestly just kinda relieved it didn't turn out to be her deciding she was DONE being an indoor cat...
