- A small reminder for everyone to drink some water & get some rest. If you’re like me, you’ve been running at 10/10 anxiety & need to dial it down to 4 or 5 to, hopefully get some sleep. Achieving Luca’s 0/10 isn’t likely for any of us (esp in the U.S.) anytime soon #CatsFightingFascism #FDT #FuckICE
- She finally got around to being curious about the new addition to the family…..it’s been a week lol. I imagine her thought process was something along the lines of “Ok, fine. Let me see what all the fuss is about”
- Reposted by Erika RayeRecall that Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered not long ago by a fake cop who showed up at their door looking like this guy
- Day 5 and I can’t sit down without him getting in my lap. I am getting very little done but look at his sweet little face!

- Day 3 update: Luca was a spicy boy (likely bc it’s his first day without post neuter pain meds) Kilian spent most of the day wondering why he kept getting hissed at. The sun isn’t even down yet and he has done the sad panda shuffle off to bed. I feel bad (Luca does not). Pax remains unbothered.
- This is sick. This is inhumane. I’ve seen people call this administration immoral but can we just be honest and stop sugar coating this shit. It’s amoral. These are soulless monsters with a taste for blood and a get out of jail free pass from the president.
- DHS claimed "Medics provided immediate aid to Pretti." They lied. In truth, a physician entered a sworn affidavit that ICE blocked him from reaching Pretti, and when he finally got there ICE wasn't giving him CPR, but counting bullet holes. My full analysis: www.qasimrashid.com/p/in-minneap...
- 2nd day home & he wore himself out running around the house. His new brother & sister are still a little confused but things are going better than expected. The cats don’t know it but they’re the only ones keeping me (sorta) sane. Trying to say positive for now. #FuckICE #FDT #CalEXIT
- He may have been found in an abandoned house last week but he has a forever home now. Internet, meet Luca. I think I’m going to be stuck like this all day and I’m not mad about it #caturday.

- Reposted by Erika RayeThat’s grotesque @elliottpayne.org There’s an opportunity to use our 🇺🇸 as a protective cloak. Suggest advising (and providing) witnesses and protestors to bring American flags with them. Would also be a challenge MAGA ICE CBP to assault our flag. bsky.app/profile/star...

- Reposted by Erika RayeThe 6-month-old that DHS is tweeting about here lived in the neighborhood and the baby’s father was just trying to evacuate his family after federal agents had shot someone.
- “It only took 4 blocks and 5 years for them to go from knees on a black man’s neck to bullets in a white woman’s face” This was a comment I saw on some random TikTok a few days ago and I cannot stop thinking about it.
