The humans have caught Voltaire (Saskatchewan, Canada) drinking for the glasses of water they put on the bedside table in case they are thirsty in the night. He doesn't really get why this is an issue. The humans are concerned about how long this has been going on.
There's a pop-up window on my website, sophiajanehayden.com, where you can get a link to a PDF of The Story of Rockit by joining my email list. It's a short children's tale. Rockit is an adorable Australian herder pup with big dreams of herding cattle like her famous grandfather, Mick. But when she is adopted into a California home, she's met with two mean cats and a couple of elderly, very slow-moving tortoises, Herman and his wife, Morticia, in the backyard. It seems her dreams of being a herder have been dashed. But are they? Wise old Herman, who has lived for 105 years, tells Rockit never to give up on her dreams. #story #shortStory #storytelling #scribesAndMakers #mastodon #bookstodon #bookTok #wednesday #writingCommunity #writing #writer #writers #kids #childrensbooks #stories #cartoons #cartoon #tales #tale #animal #readingCommunity #readersofmastodon #reading #readers #fun #cute #cuteanimals #cuteanimal #sweet #dog #dogs #tortoise #catNews #cat #authorLife #authors #author #authorsOfMastodon #email #website
Sammy (BC, Canada) was very happy to get his breakfast a whole hour early this weekend. His humans are clearly confused, but he wasn't going to correct them. Little does he know this may never happen again.
Pippin (BC, Canada) does not know what all the fuss over him sitting on the remote is about. Sure, the movie jumped back to the start, but the humans should be paying attention to him anyway, not some silly film.
Pippin (BC, Canada) very sweetly came and asked his human for snacks at lunchtime, sitting on their desk and patiently waiting for them to be ready to feed him. The plan was nearly perfect. Unfortunately humans can talk to each other, and the human was warned that he had already been fed.
Bumble (Buckinghamshire, UK) has found that one of her humans has a mug that fits her whole head inside. She has also discovered that tepid tea, in an unattended mug, is quite tasty. She now wants to have her share every time the mug appears.
Want to take a look back at old Cat News? We are now slowly re-uploading them in random order on Tapas, if you want to relive what the cats of the world have been doing for the last few years.
Molly (Greater London, UK) likes lying on a heated mat. There are two heated mats, one for each cat. She especially likes lying on Max's mat. The mats are identical, but she takes every opportunity to steal his.

Pippin (BC, Canada) thinks that this is enough internet for today and it is now time to pet a cat. Please step away from your device and find something small and fluffy.
