Greetings, Fabulous Felines and Hoomans of Hivelandia and surrounding communities!
I hope your weekend is going well so far, and that you have had a lovely Caturday! Yes, today was Caturday... my favorite day of the week!
Shadow un the morning sun!
It has been a rather wet and cool Caturday here... along with the last few days of rain. Rain in the summer is somewhat of a rarity where we are, so three consecutive days of rain is completely unexpected.
The Dad-Hooman says it's because there's a "Waterfront Festival" in town, this weekend. Not sure if I buy into that particular rationalization!
Shangri, looking dramatic
Anyway, we are having a quiet few days, since the Hoomans can't do their outdoor "gardening work" when it's raining.
We cats like it, because that means they are trapped inside and have to pay more attention to us cats, and give us extra playtime!

Meanwhile, the Hoomans have been talking about whether or not they are going to get another kitten when our aging housemate Smudge eventually crosses the Rainbow Bridge.
At 20 years and change... and showing her age... it's obvious that Smudge will not be with us forever. At this point it does look like another cat would then come into the household.
But then again, Smudge could live another five years!

I'm slowly moving forward towards my 2025 Hive goals. As of earlier this week, I reached the point of only needing 400 HP more to get to my goal for the year of 6,000 HP.
Will we get there?
I suppose time will tell, but I am feeling slightly more hopeful, as I close in on the point where I could get there by adding my Hive/HBD savings to my HP balance.
There's a bird in the tree outside!
Otherwise, not much in the way of news from around here. The Hoomans are not planning any more "away trips" for the rest of the month, and there are no scheduled visitors expected here, either.
Honestly, I prefer ot that way, as having houseguests is quite upsetting to us cats, most of the time.
Shadow and Shangri doing the Yin-Yang thing!
And that's about all for this week's Caturday update!
We appreciate you stopping by our little cat blog, and hope to see you aganin, soon! In the meantime, have a wonderful Sunday!

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!
