The Greenman's Grove

Ah, the old "I'm just going to buy a fish" excuse, huh? Her husband fell for the oldest trick in the book. We, too, have been known to go out to "buy a fish" and come back with a cat (or two). We can't help it! We can't turn our backs on kitties in need, and two adorable voidling brothers like the ones below would definitely qualify as cats in need of a good home. At this point, anytime we go out for any unspecified reason, our partner knows we're on the hunt for a new cat to bring home. They've even started coming with us to help (and this is why we're getting married).

Petsmart is no place for a cat to live. In fact, no cats should be forced to live in an animal shelter of any kind. Of course, it's pawsitively better than living on the streets, but we wish for more people to make space in their hearts and homes for all the cute cats that need them. They are sweet souls who just need a little love, and honestly, what's the harm in adopting one more cat?

Did you know that Siamese cats can change color as they grow from kitten to adult kitty? Neither did we—until we saw this pawdorable TikTok video with hundreds of comments of cat owners sharing their "toasted" Siamese feline friends!

I have a multicolored feline baby myself, but he's a two-colored Tuxedo cat. His fur pattern has never changed, only expanded since his body has gotten bigger! Siamese cats, though, have the potential to completely change to a darker colored, sometimes even to a black coat, over time. This is due to temperature-induced sensitivity regarding cats' melanin! So, though you might have a cream-colored fur baby at first, they might get "toasted to perfection" as they grow up! It's almost like owning two separate cats, right?!

Below, you'll find the cutest Siamese cats, ranging from "undercooked" to well-toasted. And guess what? We love them all! I mean, how can you not? Scroll below to get a personal look at the toasted beauties!

When life has you hissing at your to-do list, there's only one prescription: cats. Not just the soft purrs and the slow blinks, but the endless stream of memes that turn whiskers and toe beans into pure feline serotonin boost. Cats have an almost magical ability to nap anywhere, zoomie at random hours, and make us laugh at their sheer dramatic flair. That's why this long list of feel-good feline pawsts is here to lift your spirits, chase away the mellows, and remind you that the internet was invented for one thing: cat content.

People dress up their pets, bedazzle their collars, and even bake them pet-friendly birthday cakes. It's cute and it's socially acceptable. We, more than anyone, understand that some people (us) truly view their animals as their babies, completely understandable. However, there are certain boundaries that should be addressed. Like ensuring you don't push your 'pet mother/fatherhood' self-appointed title onto anyone else…It just makes things complicated, and ultimately quite strange!

I'm sure if you ask nicely, your family members will allow your pet to sniff their shoes, and maybe even give them a cuddle or two..But when this mother expects her daughter, who's visiting from abroad, to bring gifts for her entire family and her cats…she might reply with a confused paw-don me?! How can she ask her daughter, knowing she is on a tight budget, to buy gifts for her pets when she can barely afford gifts for her own family? And then proceed to get offended when she refuses?! 

I'm starting to wonder who (or what) this mother views as her favorite child…?

Working from home isn't complete without a furry supervisor… or three. Cats take their job very seriously, making sure every keystroke, mouse click, and Zoom call is properly observed. They're experts at quality control, ensuring your productivity never exceeds their nap schedule.

From the moment your laptop opens, they're right there, tails flicking with judgmental precision. One paw on the keyboard, a curious sniff at your coffee mug, another stretching across your notes. It's hard to get any real work done, but somehow the moral support feels vital. Every time you glance away, a mischievous paw might delete a sentence, add an unexpected "mrow" in a group chat, or swipe at your screen just to remind you who's really in charge.

Even their snuggles are strategic. Curling up across your arms or plopping on your keyboard is a gentle reminder that your feline coworkers expect petting breaks, treats, and endless chin scratches. Working from home might be chaotic, but it's also far more purrductive with a cat around. After all, every meeting, spreadsheet, and email is better when supervised by whiskers and paws.
