Lost In Haste

Animal

  • Rainy day + lazy cat = nap time πŸ˜ΉπŸ’€πŸˆπŸ“·

    Grey cat, in a grey/green recliner, wedged into the side, between the armrest and a pillow, with his head on the pillow and his eyes closed.

  • He really does look rather regal here but I think he’s trying to lure me into a false sense of security; I still think Alex is upset about the continuing construction in the house. πŸ˜ΌπŸˆπŸ“·

    Grey-white cat staring in the distance, sitting on a black/white carpet, in the sunlight. Behind him is an out-of-focus plant on top of hardwood flooring with a few pieces of carpet beside it.

  • Yup, he’s still not happy with the construction…it’s almost done but I can tell he’s plotting our downfall. πŸ˜ΌπŸ˜ΉπŸˆπŸ“·

    Grey cat, on new (fake) hardwood flooring, in the glow of cloudy daylight, looking into the distance. The flooring is vertical planked, with brown carpet in the upper-right corner and mesh anti-slip pads in the upper left corner of the photo, with just the hint of a door.

  • Alex is not amused by the construction going on in the house. πŸ™€πŸˆπŸ“·

  • He was curious about what was going on in the kitchen. πŸ±πŸˆπŸ˜ΉπŸ“·

  • He’s taken to falling asleep in front of the bathroom door…and then when we try to open / close it, he glares. πŸ˜ΉπŸˆπŸ“·

    Grey cat, on the floor, in front of a door-way, glaring with one eye open at the camera.

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 27: Embrace

    Grey cat, curled up and hiding his face with his paws, on a blue bedspread, with blue pillows behind him.

    He didn’t want to wake up,
    so he was hiding his face,
    in a sweet little self-embrace.

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 26: Beverage

    Two stemmed glasses of mulled wine sitting on a tray, next to plates and a cutting board with cheese, crackers, and knives. The tray is on top of a black ottoman, with the head of a white dog staring at the tray in the background.

    I was never sure if Russell was after the cheese or the mulled wine but I know he was hoping we’d walk away at some point; he made a habit of stealing unguarded food. πŸ·πŸ§€πŸΆπŸ€£ #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 3: Precious

    Grey long-haired cat (with a tuff of lighter fur on his chest), looking straight into the camera, with light yellow-green eyes.

    Sadly, our little puppy-rabbit crossed the rainbow bridge back in February but this little fur-ball is still with us, eating us out of house and home, puking all his food up, and wailing plaintively to go outside. 😸 #mbsept

  • Another iOS Photos widget memory of #Russell πŸ’”πŸΆ

  • I use the iOS Photos widget on my Home Screen and there have been a lot of #Russell photos popping up lately. πŸ’”πŸΆ I’ve decided it would be a good idea to post them, until it isn’t… 🀣

  • I still wake up every day, missing Russell, hoping it was just a bad dream…only for reality to come crashing down on me. πŸ’”πŸΆ I’m so grateful to all the friends who’ve been there for me, trying to offer comfort and companionship; I’m truly blessed. ❀️

    White dog on his back, with his head cocked back to look at the camera, showing some side-eye, with his head back on a purple pillow.

  • I keep looking up, expecting Russell to be on the couch or in his nest of blankets. I keep expecting to hear the clatter of his nails on the kitchen floor. I keep expecting to hear him woof and growl at the slamming of a car door. I keep expecting him to greet me @ the door. πŸ’”πŸΆ

  • “How did that annoying little creature worm his way so deep into our hearts?” - me asking my Partner between breakdowns today πŸ’”πŸΆ

    Messy white dog, with hair obscuring one eye, staring into the camera while on a blue pillow.

  • Nobody tells you how much this hurts…or maybe they did and I just didn’t realize? I’ve never lost a pet as an adult; it’s been less than 12 hours and I feel like it’s been an eternity. I don’t know what I’m going to do without Russell, the world just feels so…empty. πŸ’”πŸΆ
