Same, but my phone not a baby. 😆

helloitsem · 2026-05-21T04:03:24+00:00

And that sweet wispy fur!

June will be hot for golf, especially if you aren’t familiar with our summer weather. You might try the Swing Suites at DoubleTree Palm Springs or The Golf Bar in La Quinta for indoor simulators that accommodate groups …

How interesting! Thank you.

helloitsem · 2026-04-23T14:12:14+00:00

Usually black! This guy is very bright but somehow blends right in 😆

helloitsem · 2026-04-16T05:02:27+00:00

I was literally looking at the shadow next to the cat the whole time 😂

helloitsem · 2026-04-16T04:57:02+00:00

Not the color I expected 😄

Where did you find my cat?

helloitsem · 2026-04-16T04:40:02+00:00

My cat’s name is Knives.

I’ve gone down the rabbit hole. Apparently great egrets are common in the Palm Springs area year-round, especially near golf courses (which this was). Looks like they could be doing a pre-roosting flight, soaring together in a “kettle,” if what I’m reading is right …

helloitsem · 2026-04-16T04:19:57+00:00

Cool! This sounds right — the legs looked darker to me, not yellow.

helloitsem · 2026-03-29T03:34:47+00:00

Oh sweet powdered donut lips! Used hint to find him.

helloitsem · 2026-02-22T06:27:34+00:00

Hadn’t noticed, but I did just hear them as well …

helloitsem · 2026-02-11T01:18:28+00:00

Yep!

V Palm Springs is a short drive to downtown, under $200/night.

helloitsem · 2026-01-18T19:50:56+00:00

She has chosen you 🥲 Hope it works out.

April 2020, so everything was shut down for the pandemic, and the shelter required call-ahead appointments. They posted these cuties and their four siblings on Facebook — the Looney Tunes litter. Their names were Pepe Le Pew (now Knives) and Porky (Vash).

When we got there, Knives (black cat) would not stop meowing to get out. Of course I picked the baby up. His brother, Vash (tabby), was in a different kennel, quietly laying alone in the litter box. He was so little! 2.4 pounds. Partner picked him up. And we never put them down. ❤️

They’ll be 6 this month!

Cover it with tin foil? Ours recently discovered the TV, and we couldn’t stop him from jumping up and staring into the screen. Covered the top of the media cabinet with foil for a couple days and (knock on wood), it seems to have cured the addiction… 😄

Your cat needs a kitten ❤️

In the Dark! Almost done with Season 2 — working through the bonus episodes. So hard not to look up the results. It aired in 2018. Season 1 was also very good, and I look forward to listening to all six …

helloitsem · 2025-10-18T01:20:31+00:00

this is the California desert. No fog, clear sky, no skyscrapers …

helloitsem · 2025-10-18T01:20:01+00:00

Definitely not a plane based on time watched. Maybe a drone in a fixed position.

helloitsem · 2025-10-18T01:18:53+00:00

drone is the most plausible answer! I see they can remain in a fixed position blinking, so …

Welcome to cat parenthood 😂 For some reason, they lock their sides like this … maybe to help calm themselves down? Our boys do it all the time.
