It's been a while, we dabbled with taking in another stray...it didn't go well, and it was clear that Artemis is an only cat. The stray is at a great shelter, and now we're cuddling and recovering from the chaos. So I guess the tip is, listen to your cat πŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’š

Artemis atop her cat tree, surveying her kingdom with a very serious look on her face... besides her tongue, which is adorably blepping.

The blep is v. cute, but also v. difficult to capture, so my tip is to just take rapid fire pictures, this was the product of nearly 50 identical pictures, hashtag worth it

Another picture of Artemis on catdad's shoulders. It doesn't even appear to be from a different photo shoot (it's not) but damn she's cute.

Catdad grinning excitedly while Artemis perches on his shoulder, perhaps a bit dubiously, but she stayed up there purring for a bit!

At first glance, it seems the focus of the picture is a beautiful portrait of Ashoka Tano, created out of bras by my friend Sadie. Upon closer inspection, one can see Artemis peeking out from the curlicues of the sage green cabinet which the portrait rests atop.

Catdad smiling like a doof while Artemis chows down next to him. There are several pillows, stuffies, and our third roommate Roombmate the roomba in the background.

Artemis's cute little face smooshed against catdad's leg, fast asleep. Her nose is just barely visible, but it is soooo temptingly boopable.

Unofficial Official Cat Dad Tip #6

While it can be tempting to boop the nose of a sleeping cat, do not. Cats NEED an admirable and enviable amount of sleep, so avoid disturbing. Even if you have to pee.

If you don't want your cat to sleep on you, then what you can do is chill out and love the cuddles.

Don't know where to get a cat? Leave your back door open and one will eventually come in. But make sure you know the difference between cats and possums...I only provide tips for one of these.

Get a cat, doy (or no doy, depending on how 90s you're feeling).

Already have a cat? You know where this is going...
