The vet thinks she is about 7-8 months. She’s a sweet cat. Minimal strategic warfare. There’s some non-serious play fighting, but she mostly gets along with her cat brothers and ignores the dog.

I’ve been making candles for fun & gifts for a few months. I tried using coconut wax for the first time and the candles turned out great. I learned that coconut wax burns longer than bees wax due to a lower melting point. It doesn’t produce soot and can hold a scent better other waxes. #candlemaking

For #InternationalWomensDay a thread of my ongoing series of portraits of women in science through history. If you look for them, they’re there. I’m up to 67 now! Here’s to the day when a scientist’s sex is no longer remarkable in any field!

It is -30 today but it’s only going to get warmer now. Soon we’ll be able to open the window and hear the birds.
