For #Caturday, Fidget shows off his high-speed chasing skills! (Cat wheel courtesy of his rescue because he was the only cat who’d ever used it 😂) Alt: a small mostly black tuxedo cat runs inside a large exercise wheel. He’s chasing a feather wand toy that he eventually catches and carries off.

One day, Sploot will catch the wily “bug” that keeps making waves in the drinking fountain. So far he’s tried batting the water, pushing water into the water intake, sneaking up on the fountain when it’s running, and now exploring what’s happening behind the fountain. #Caturday (alt text +)

Oh hey. It’s another shit show today. You already know all about it. So here’s a #Caturday post to give you a timeline cleanse: Sploot, a fluffy brown tabby, plays with his fav toy, a small, plastic, empty cat treat bag. He tosses it with glee, spinning in circles, and pounces it.

Here they are again, where Fidget tries to put his head back in the tissue box and Sploot bats him away from it. He’s done with this nonsense haha!

For Caturday. Fidget can take the box off anytime, and will put it back on if I take it off and he isn’t done with his game of “box head.” Sploot doesn’t like this game and will sometimes even scruff him to get him to stop. “It’s dangerous and weird, brother!” (Alt text follows +)

Here’re Fidget and Sploot having fun doing our Christmas craft, AKA playing with paintbrushes—the best toys ever. Fidget is always stealing Sploot’s toys, so this is also classic cat sibling stuff haha! (Alt text next post) +

For Caturday, and every day really, here’s a minute of Sploot kneading a blankie I tossed on my office chair and a very forceful and happy bunt after he realizes I’m watching him. 🥰 (Alt text: A fluffy tabby kneads a fuzzy blanket with gusto. Notices me, walks over, and bunts my phone/face hard.)

New catio just dropped! Alt: camera pans around an outdoor deck enclosed with wire fencing with wooden shelves and driftwood paths to the top of the deck. Two cats climb and explore. My husband’s electric leafblower is harshing the vibe a bit in the background. Old cat Tinker is unseen but here too!

For #Caturday, Fidget, master of disguise, shows you how to disappear and then pounce your target. (Alt text: a mostly black cat burrows into a pile of brown packing paper, becoming one with the shadows. Undetectable. Then he pounces, taking some paper with him.)

#Caturday, because we all need a smile. Video: Fidget’s first ride on his “toy,” the robot vacuum. A mostly black cat with white toes, neck patch, and whiskers sits on a round robot vacuum while it turns and moves. He is calm and curious. He jumps off to watch the spinning brush from another angle.

For #Caturday, fearless Fidget tried to figure out the SpotBot carpet cleaner. (Someone fluffy had a hairball. :cough: Spoot :cough:) It doesn’t play with him like the robot vacuum does though. Its brush is surrounded by a force field! (Alt Text following) 1/2

Fidget: a small, mostly black tux with his head stuck in an even smaller snack bag! (Not even about licking the bag! He does this with tissues boxes, packing sleeves, you name it. Always gets himself out, sometimes goes back for seconds. Maybe it’s fashion? 🤷‍♀️)

Fidget: smart enough to learn speech-button-pushing in 30 minutes or less, uses the “snack” button when dinner is late. And yet… (Video #AltText: a mostly black cat has a human snack bag stuck on his head. He wiggles around until the bag comes off. A tabby in the background watches.) #Caturday

Video #AltText: a small, mostly black tuxedo cat digs a dangling feather wand toy out of a cardboard box filled with brown paper. When I put it back into the box, he jumps in face-first. His face smashes into the paper and his butt stays up in the air, his back legs stick out behind him. 2/2

Fidget is super play-motivated so I gave him a play button. He learned it in about 30 minutes and ever since it is play-play-play. He also now has a skritches button, which sometimes means skritches and sometimes means come here so I can push play at you. 😂 #Caturday (Alt. text following)

For #Caturday, here is Fidget following the robot vacuum around and using its side brush as a toy. (Alt: a mostly black tux cat chases a round robot vacuum in the bathroom. Its side brush spins in a circle, disappearing under it and reappearing. It is perfect for batting at and pouncing on!)

On this #Caturday, I give you Fidget being a fidget spinner and making his own fun. He does this multiple times a day! (Alt: a small mostly black tux cat holds one end of a wire wand toy in his mouth and pushes it in a circle so he can chase the other end. He circles at top speed.) #CatsOfBluesky

We have that toy! One of my cats likes to take it for a walk. (Video alt text: a small, mostly black tuxedo cat drags a wand toy with a very long ribbon attached down a hall before disappearing into a room.)

Too smart for his own good!

Fidget put this paper packing sleeve on his head and kept putting it back on after I took it off. I thought he was just being silly, but it turns out he had diabolical reasons. Next post for why! Alt text after that. #CatsOfBluesky #CatShenanigans

So happy to see so many people turn out in my smaller suburb-ish WA area. I was pretty sure only a handful would show up. Over 300 people RSVP’d! This is just a few minutes in! (ALT: people stand with protest signs on all four corners of a large shopping center.) #HandsOff2025 #HandsOf

New #cats are home!!! They’re already playing, cuddling, snacking, and being downright adorable. Plus Tinker is sniffing under the door and not hissing. Yay! Tried to hang out and edit, but they were determined to help. And, um, they’re not good writers. 🤷‍♀️ Video alt next. #CatsOfBlueSky #amediting
