Main heat isn't working until the repair guy hopefully comes tomorrow. Supposed to be in the 20's (F) tonight; hope 3 cats and a (electric) blanket are enough.

spoiler explanation

Edit: Heat is fixed. I'll miss you cats.

Every Friday https://www.youtube.com/@shironekoshiro streams hours of their cats sleeping. It’s so relaxing.

we had a bit of trouble last night at class (another dog had peed in the building earlier / she wasn't used to the videographer moving). we managed to work through it with a bit of training and get another great submission ready for scoring. echo is an absolute delight to work with!

[Image description: our fifteen year old Russian Blue cat, Maeko, lays on a matching couch with her head on a sunflower pillow]

This is Maeko, our old gray lady in the house. She's fifteen this year, which I know is a huge accomplishment. She's a little curmudgeon who's never liked anyone but my wife and I, and we joked that she would be around as long as Palpatine (the hate keeps her strong). But she's really starting to show some of those signs, and someone keeps cutting onions around here.

She probably wouldn't like any of you, but send some scritches her way if you would.

Leon the Lobster is Alive (www.youtube.com)
submitted 2 months ago by ErsatzCoalButter to c/animals
 
 

The latest update video from Leon the Lobster, a cozy docu-series about a lobster rescued from the grocery store.

As of this post, Leon the Lobster is alive and appears to be recovering from dropping a claw. Sorry-not-sorry for spoilers, nobody needs to be introduced to a cool animal with a fake-out like the video's real title. Brady. You jerk. All of us have high enough blood pressure.

Things have been a little tough for Sudo since Juniper arrived, since he's used to taking up all of my attention. Playtimes are now in between her naps, and her janky motions have kinda freaked him out over the past few days. We still have cuddle time after she goes to bed for the night, and I managed to snap this shot of the two of us this evening.

i told my partner that if he charged up the gopro, i'd make a video for him when i took the dog out to the local nature preserve. turns out it makes some nice crunch-crunch sounds.

Steel Worm (video.everythingbagel.me)
submitted 3 months ago by JohnOliver@feddit.dk to c/animals
 
 

Its the time of the year where cold blooded animals get easier to catch!

This was found in a forest of northern Denmark. Here they call them steel worms.The common name is Slow worm and the Latin name is Anguis fragilis. It is not a worm though and although it looks like a snake, it is a legless lizard. This is one of the largest ones that I have ever found!

The bonus clip is a larvae of the Calliteara pudibunda moth, also known as the pale tussock

I work 24 hour shifts as a care assistant to a person with severe disabilities. This is their cat. I often share a bed with it!
