Curator Cat on Caturday: Summertime and Family Crises!

in Caturday6 months ago

Greetings Fabulous Felines and Hoomans of Hivelandia and surrounding communities!

Welcome to the weekend and welcome to the first Caturday in the month of August! Time for another round of cat photos, on this my favorite day of the week!

Loving the sunshine!

It has been another warm and sunny week with many good sunpuddles around the house for excellent catnaps!

Sadly, our peaceful week was thrown off a little on Wednesday afternoon when we learned that the Daughter-Hooman needed to go to the hospital on Friday morning for an emergency surgical procedure.

Guarding the Mom-Hooman's office while she's away...

Since she only lives about 90 minutes away in Seattle, the Mom-Hooman dropped everything and headed across the Sound to be with her, while the Dad-Hooman stayed home to look after the house and us cats!

I can report that the procedure went well, and our patient is back home and recovering. It was a good thing the Mom-Hooman was there to support her!

Morning sun!

Out Internet was "broken" most of yesterday — something to do with new main cables being laid, says the Dad-Hooman — so I had the house to myself, as the Dad-Hooman used the lack of service as an excuse to do yard work, all day!

All in all, it was a good day for everyone! The Internet finally came back on at about 4:00am, after a 16-hour outage... of course, now the Dad-Hooman is very busy trying to catch up with all the online things he didn't get to, yesterday... silly Hooman!

I see a bird in that tree...

Of course, this also meant that we didn't much check in with the Cryptosphere yesterday... but that was probably a good thing, given that everything seemed to fall apart a little! I don't care that much... I just want to be able to check in to see how our cat blog is going!

The Mom-Hooman says she is going to stay in Seattle until Monday because the Daughter-Hooman isn't supposed to exert herself much for a few days. And that is pretty much as it it supposed to be.

Smudge, being Smudge!

As I have mentioned a few times, I'm revisiting my Hive goals for 2024... mostly because I don't think we're going to make our projected 5,000 HP by the end of the year. I just rounded 4,300 HP, and I'm not convinced another 700 this year is realistic. We'll see...

After all, I'm a cat, and most of the time I'd rather be nipping than try to be some kind of ambitious go-getter! Still, this is all part of my bigger aspirations to become a Hive "Dolphin" by the end of 2025... every little bit counts.

In the pink room...

Well, Caturday is almost over so I suppose we'd better get this post out while there is still time left!

Time for me to wish everyone a fabulous Sunday, and I hope your Caturday was a good one! I appreciate you stopping by our cat blog, and hope to see you again for the next edition!

Love Cats? Get Involved in Hive's Cat Communities!

If you're a cat lover and often/sometimes post pictures or other content that includes your feline friends, why not become an active part of Hive's growing Cat Communities?

These are some of the more active Cat Communities — why not join them ALL? Many of the allow you to share your cat posts, even if you started at a different community!

HiveCats by @curatorcat is a central "gathering place" for cat content on Hive; promoting the use of the #hivecats tag for feline content!

Cat Snaps by @manorvillemike is a place to post pictures of your cats when you don't have a whole lot to say beyond just sharing your cute photos!

Caturday by @saboin is a community where we get to celebrate posts relating to Saturday — aka "Caturday" — our own special day!

Cat Photos by @andrarchy is a "mixed use" cat content community; posts can be just photos or longer, as long as the subject is CATS!

Cats by @captainklaus (and Sissi!) is another "general" cat content community.

There are a number of other feline communities listed on Hive, but I am not sharing them for now as they have not had any activity (by their Admins OR users) since the Steem/Hive fork. Updates as they become available!

Sammi Jo spent the first half of her life "nipping" at me. 😂

I know C.C. you meant napping. Something me and Sammi both love to do. 😉💤🥱🥱😴😴😴

As a matter of fact. I may take one this Sunday afternoon. We have been running around here "battening down the hatches" as they say in preparation for the storm called Debbie... Uhhhg here we go again.

I really love cats. I'm glad I found your blog

How many egomaniacs does it take to screw in a light bulb?
One, they hold the bulb while the world revolves around them.

Wow! Quite an exciting week with suddenly having to travel to Seattle. Glad to know that it was not serious and things will recover giving some time.

The cats enjoyed sunshine and warm weather for a change. I need to be forced to get off the internet myself. I have my excuse, rainy weather! So, I couldn’t do any gardening.

The fluctuations in crypto market had been very drastic this weekend!

I am glad that you and your hooman family handled everything with grace and that the surgery went well. Now it is your turn to purr and help her recover. Bless you all!
