Evey, Lou and Mulligan. Evey is my spirit animal now. Lou was a rescue, as you can tell from his mismatched vibe, he didn’t come from a happy home, but we fixed that, he’s five months old here.
The orange cat is Thorin. He’s 13 years old and a little cranky with other cats, especially younger ones. He doesn’t have the energy to keep up anymore. Rory is ~1 year old. Super playful, and so sweet she’ll give you a cavity. But she’s a little much for the old man sometimes.
This was her first winter in a place that actually gets snow and she loved. If I let her she would just sit outside all day. She’s half husky, but her coat is 100% husky.
I got Mulligan, or as we usually call him Moop after a long stay in the ICU. I asked my partner if I survived could I have a puppy? He of course said yes and I spent months dreaming of this boy from my critical care bed. I received a new set of lungs during that stay in the hospital and that summer we brought Mulligan home. Mulligan is named for my surgeon, Dr. Mulligan, which considering “a mulligan” is a do over I’m reminded the universe does have a sense of humor sometimes.
He will sit on it like this and you can pick it up with him on it, take him on a magic carpet ride, and set him down somewhere else. Best passenger ever, 5 stars
If he’s not winning, after a while he’ll nip at toes or jowls. Just heeler logic. I reckon ACDs would nod approvingly at Alexander with the Gordian knot.

My little Sevvy making a loaf and giving me pretty eyes. People who say you can’t take good pictures of black cats need to learn how to use their cameras better.
my neighbor’s dog jude. she’s an old girl, so it was nice to see her moving around with so much energy here. if you look close she’s actually staring down a mosquito.
