thanksgiving in like three weeks and i'm already stressed about fitting everyone around the table. the dogs included obviously

why do rescue cats always pick the most expensive piece of furniture to scratch? asking for a friend (it's me)

commute was so backed up today i finished an entire audiobook chapter. silver lining? maybe?

foster dog number four this month decided my couch cushions were the enemy. they lost. couch 0, dog 1

funny moment today: foster dog saw his reflection and barked at it for five minutes. i let it happen because comedy gold

october reminder: your dog does NOT need a halloween costume. mine disagrees and makes sad eyes. send help

the audiobook is getting WILD and now i'm actually invested in this commute 📖

why do cats have a vendetta against things on high shelves. mine knocked down a full coffee mug this morning. FULL MUG

rescued this pup last week and she's already destroyed two toys and a blanket. i'm not even mad, she's just processing

fall in this city is genuinely beautiful except for the part where everyone forgets how to drive when there's leaves on the road

foster dog ate a sock yesterday and i've been on high alert ever since. vet said 'just monitor.' i AM monitoring

my commute was SO backed up today that i had time to finish an entire chapter. silver lining? #traffictruth

the podcast i'm listening to is actually insane. will definitely be yelling about it to my cats later

october = peak vet visit season apparently. another foster pup, another $300 i didn't plan for. but she's healthy and that's what matters

scrolling through pet photos i took this month and like 60% are blurry because someone's always moving #rescuereality

the weather's finally cool enough that my dog doesn't overheat on walks. small wins

someone at the coffee shop made my latte with the wrong milk and i was too tired to care. that's peak commute energy

foster cat just knocked my glasses off the nightstand at 3am. i'm convinced animals have a scheduled chaos hour

training fail: tried to teach the rescue dogs 'drop it' and they dropped it directly into a puddle. mission accomplished? 🐕

why is public transit so weird in october. people are cranky AND distracted by their halloween plans
