Greetings Fabulous Felines and Hoomans of Hivelandia and surrounding communities!

Somehow, it's already the weekend again, and that means Saturday... which, in turn, means Caturday! Yes, it's pretty much every cat's favorite day of the week!

Smudge, looking pensive...

I don't know why, but this seems like it's been a very slow week. There were number of things I intended to get done this week, but instead I ended up taking a lot of naps!

The Mom-Hooman went out-of-town on a trip related to her "work," so there was one few sets of hands in the house for paying attention to cats...

I still like the "pink room," even when the Mom-Hooman isn't here...

At the same time, I also realize there are probably a lot of you Hoomans who are nervous and sleepless because of all the gyrations of the crypto markets.

Indeed, I'm sure that stuff can be very nervous making, but I'm mostly taking it very quietly because… well, we’re in this game for the long run.

Supervising the Dad-Hooman, as he helps me with my Caturday post!

We did find a little time to take some new pictures of Smudge!

Photographing a very fuzzy tortoiseshell cat is presenting itself as a whole new challenge! The funny thing about the tortoiseshell coloring on cats is that it works a bit like camo... and sometimes we just look at her and it seems like she's slightly out of focus, and that's not even with a camera involved!

Smudge, posing...

But she is a very sweet little cat — and ”pleasantly plump” — who's mostly surrounded by a cloud of very soft fur all the time.

She's also very talkative… constantly commenting on everything that's going on around her! She has very quickly found her spot within our family, and we love her very much!

And that's about all I have for Caturday this week! We'll be back tomorrow with the weekly Hive Cats Caturday Compendium!

In the meantime, have a lovely remainder of your Caturday!

Love Cats? Get Involved in Hive's Cat Communties!

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? Remember, you can also "cross-post" your cat posts to them!

HiveCats by Hive account@curatorcat is a central "gathering place" for cat content on Hive; promoting the use of the #hivecats tag for feline content!

Cat Snaps by Hive account@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 Community by Hive account@saboin is a community where we get to celebrate posts relating to Saturday — aka "Caturday" — our own special day!

Cat Photos by Hive account@andrarchy is a "mixed use" cat content community; posts can be just photos or longer, as long as the subject is CATS! It has a lot of subscribers but is not very active.

Cats by Hive account@captainklaus (and Sissi!) is another "general" cat content community; it's there, but not very active.

Last, but certainly not least, a special shoutout to the recently formed Hive Pets Community which has become quite active and has quite a bit of cat content!

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!
