#squeaktoy sassafras silkyshorts

Hello everyone. I am too tired for The Discourse(TM) today, so please enjoy this video of my cat Squeaktoy Sassafras Silkyshorts making a valiant effort to kill a gecko through the glass, with special guest appearance by her brother Moogle Moonshine.

My li'l girl Squeaktoy Sassafras Silkyshorts wants to murder the lizard on the other side of the window so bad. Such a cute little sadist. <333

ETA: I can't believe I forgot to mention the sudden surprise appearance of Squeaky's brother Moogle Moonshine! I am such a terrible, heartless mother for forgetting him like this.

So anyone remember how my hard drive got destroyed when my cats were hangry because we had to take up the food and water for the night because my li'l girl Squeaktoy Sassafras Silkyshorts was getting spayed the next day? No? Never mind, then.

Anyway, I'm looking for some free alternatives to Photoshop and Microsoft Word, since apparently I can only use Word and Office through a browser now and like fuck that, I need to find some replacements or something because I'm so sick of feeling frozen in place. I mean, it's bad enough that I lost thousands of personal photos, videos, music and all of my WIPs and it's going to cost $1450~ to even try to recover them (success not guaranteed. I'm trying not to hope), but I now I don't even have the software that would let me start something new. So if anyone has any recommendations, please let me know.

My cat Moogle Moonshine, his mama Parker Peridot, his sisters Squeaktoy Sassafras Silkyshorts and Kipo Pixie-Paws (RIP), and my girl Maya Miette (who I got at a used car lot a year before Parker and her brood showed up) are all members of the Itty Bitty Kitty Committee.

His brothers Bilbo Buttercream Baggins and especially Big Bubba Kupo (now home after roughly 8 months) and my dad's cat Miss Chi, however, are too Lorge and/or Chonky to qualify as itty bitty kitties, so instead they're members of the Hefty Natural Kitty Committee.

Anyone remember the cat that had kittens in my back yard last year? We still have the mama cat (named Parker Peridot, because she's a thief but also very loud and raspy. She has a lot of emotions and she is going to make them your problem), as well as three of the five kittens (the remaining girl is named Squeaktoy Sassafras Silkyshorts, and the two boys are Moogle Moonshine and Bilbo Buttercream Baggins). This past March one of the two female kittens, Kipo Pixie-Paws, somehow got into the sewing kit and ate a length of string, and despite our best efforts to save her, she ended up dying in my arms a week later. Needless to say, it was completely devastating and honestly, I'm still not over it.

A few weeks after that, we gave the largest of the litter (seriously I swear his father is a panther), Big Bubba Kupo, to a new home. This was also pretty emotional, but at least I knew he was still alive and had a chance at happiness. I was still worried though, because he went from living in a house with six other cats and which almost always has at least one human around to play with him and give him attention to living in an apartment with one other cat and an owner who's rarely ever home at all.

Turns out I was right to be worried, because surprise surprise, he's been lonely and bored as hell and has been tearing up his new owner's place and trying to get outside. So he's coming home tomorrow, and honestly it's the best news I've gotten all year (it's been an awful, awful year). I missed him so so much and I can't wait to see him again. Now if I could only master necromancy so that I can bring Kipo back, too (along with my aunt Beth, my horse Sharif, my dogs Sokka, Bongo and Mac, and on and on)...
