Even if you don't like winter, you are sure to like cats! 

Winter is a season that introverts tend to veer towards. If you're someone who likes to cuddle up in bed rather than go out partying, then you're probably a winter person. Winter is for resting, for introspection, for slowing down and being forced to stay inside while a thunder storm is happening outside your window. So how does one stay crazy, cute, and cat-like in the winter? By embracing their snuggly, cuddly, and cozy nature. Just get your cat to lay with you, pile a bunch of blankets on your bed to tempt him into a purrito shape. The image of your cat bundled up like a burrito should be a mirror to your inner mood – winter cutie. 

Feeling overwhelmed is a part of life, so if winter offers the space and safety to slow down and hibernate, better take it while it's hot (or cold). Your cat can have 4 am zoomies, but you'll still stay fast asleep and honoring the part of you that needs real rest. What makes winter and cats so captivating is their strange parallels that combine with their juxtaposition of nature. Cats are inherently cozy and cuddly, but they're also inherently demented, aggressive, mischievous, chaotic, and capricious natures. Their floofy cuteness can be so misleading when you find them tearing your toilet paper to shreds. That stuff isn't so cheap, Mr. Whiskers! While winter has its ups and downs of dark rooms and crisp air, cats also ebb and flow through states of happy, sad, crazy, and sleepy. 

Winter has only just begun, so it's time to embrace what you can and get everything out of it that you'd ever want. Enjoy the holiday madness, the nascent start of a new year, and the sleepy, sad weather outside. No matter where you are in the world, there are ups and downs, and times to frolic in grass, as well as chill inside with the kitty. Cats have an innate ability to make us cozy no matter where we are, what we're doing, or anything else.

Meowwwww there, fellow feline fanatic fans! As we know you love cats, you also love cat memes. And this is exactly why we go digging in the internet's litterbox to find the best weekly cat memes we can find. And let us tell you, the internet really does feel sometimes like a litterbox. The archaeological digs you have to do sometimes feel like when your cat goes into the box and starts digging like they try to reach the downstairs neighbors. Yeah, some weeks just be like that.

But we don't fear the litterbox-ication of the internet. No, we're brave as cats hunting a fearsome fabric string. We're confident as a cat charting the unknown territory of the balcony. We're assured as a cat taking their rightful place upon the lap throne (that was taken by an inconsiderate laptop). And this is how the best weekly cat memes are gathered (100% accuracy).

So perk that tail up, purr your worries away, and let's open the weekend with the meowgnificense of the Caturday Medley. Like every cat meme collection out there - but with style.

This feisty feline proves that if there's a loophole, the cat will find it without fail.

"No cats on the counter" is basically a universal rule in a cat purrson's house. It's not sanitary, and we already have enough cat hair to clean up without worrying if it's in our food or on our cutting boards. But, that doesn't mean that our cats willingly follow the rules, you would be very bold to assume that. We've tried everything from aluminum foil to spray bottles, and the only thing that worked for us was to lure them off with a piece of cheese. We're not sure who got trained to do what here, but we're pretty sure it was us and not them.

We all know that it's nearly impawssible to get a cat to do what you want them to do. Cats are purrfectly independent creatures - they follow their own rules and expect you to follow them as well. Our cats are strict enforcers of their bedtimes. If we dare to stay up later than their normal bedtime, they will sit and stare at us until we make the right decision. You don't want to know what happens if they move to the second stage which is past staring and judging.

Our cat below is the purrfect example of a cat doing its own thing in its own way. It chooses the most chaotic, comedic, and pawsitively cat-like way to technically not be on the counter while still being on the counter. From perching on top of the coffee machine to loafing in a baking pan, this feisty feline said "fluffy you" to its hooman's rules and got comfy. It's hilarious, silly, and exactly what we signed up for.

Why improve on purrfection?

January is always full of New Year's resolutions. You may want to get back into the gym, start a new hobby, or cut down your sugar intake, but it's always about making this year better than the last one. Cats, however, would never understand the concept of a New Year's resolution because they believe that they are already purrfect. They're soft, fluffy, cute, get fed multiple free meals per day, and are treated like royalty in their households… so why wouldn't they believe that? There is no reason for them to try to improve because how can you improve something that's already purrfect? 

Well, on one hand, they're right. There is nothing we could do to make them cuter, cuddlier, or fluffier. But, if you ask us, there is some room for impurrovement there. We wouldn't mind if one of their New Year's resolutions was to stop chewing on cables, or to finally drink from their water bowl instead of our glasses of water. We also wouldn't mind them resolving to sleep somewhere other than on our faces at night. But, these are minor things, and every cat owner knows that it's nearly impawssible to change your cat's habits.

It may be a new year for us, but we're still going to have the same old kitty chaos that we know and love in 2026. New year, new us, but we still have to pspspsps our cats to get us to come to us instead of calling out their names. Some things never change.

Snowflake Challenge #2: Pets of Fandom

Loosely defined! Post about your pets, pets from your canon, anything you want!

I miss my own cats (Sage and Bruce, who are with the ex), so I’m going to post about that Leverage fandom cats fic I referenced last post instead!

The Odd Jobs series by Betty and Emeraldwoman
Parker recruits Eliot for a side job. Comedy and horror ensue.

It’s cute, and funny, and you should totally read it if you like cats, like Parker, or like Elliot’s POV in fics about Leverage.

Big cats and house cats are all just… cats. And that is especially true for kittens. That is what this story has taught us, really. When you look at a kitten, sometimes, it's a little hard to tell whether said kitten is going to grow up into a silly house cat or into a meowgestic wild cat. Because they're all kind of the same when they are younger - just as silly, just as clumsy, with the exact same meownnerisms. It's no surprise then that sometimes… people trying to do the right thing just get it wrong. 

We've seen it countless times at this point - people accidentally rescuing Norwegian Forest cats, accidentally adopting Siberian cats, accidentally raising puma cubs, and, what seems to be the most common one of this uncommon bunch, people accidentally rescuing bobcat kittens. All of these people were trying to save the abandoned cats, thinking that they were just regular kitties that they could adopt and live with, happily ever after. And all of them got the surprise of their lives when they realized that they have something special in their homes. This story, in that sense, is no different. And no less purrfectly adorable.

Specicially, with the best cat content of the week in our weekly Caturday meowgazine

Here, we give you the best of the best that the cat side of the internet has to offer - the most viral cat tweets, the funniest cat memes, the most wholesome cat stories, with a sprinkling of the controversial ones.

This annual’s main story is about planting seeds. It introduces a whole new cast of characters to serve as story anchor points, associated with the JLI embassies outside of New York and Paris--including one new embassy founded in these pages. Some of these characters would be focal to multiple Giffen-DeMatteis plots; some would get cameos of varying interest; some would never be seen again. Most would be utterly forgotten after Giffen and DeMatteis left.

It was still a bit too early in 1989 for a unified Berlin embassy. )

Happy Mew Year to all the lovely cat owners out there. While others were spending New Year's Eve with loads of other hoomans, partying and dancing until the cows came home, feline meowthers and pawthers took to a more cozy kind of night. With fireworks and blowhorns going off left and right, you want to stay close to your right-paw friend. They have no idea about what goes on during a New Year's celebration; All they know is that it's really loud, and they're exceptionally scared. They need their favorite purrson there to protect them!

Now that we're in the big 2026, it's time to start thinking about how we can change things up this year. In 2025, what did you feel like you accomplished? Did you get the big promotion? Did you pawssibly learn a new hobby or skill? Even if nothing had changed last year, everything still felt different. The world as we know it continues to change, our faces earn some well-loved fine lines, and our cats age with grace. As my tuxedo boy ages, he becomes more and more lovey-dovey. Is this what it's like after felines surpass their "terrible twos" stage? I think that I can get used to this…

Kittens are little rebellious menaces sometimes... Well, maybe all the time. Terrorizing their humans at every meowment during the night and lethargically lounging in the house during the day, kittens taunt us with their energy, chaos, and cuteness. Hypnotized by their adorable eyes, swishing tails, and off-balance demeanor, kittens lull their humans into a relaxed state before jumping on their faces and biting their noses. Careful, little fella! You're going to get yourself squished by the flailing arms of a surprised bipedal primate creature! 

Alas, kittens may be a handful, purrpetually scaling up into play mode, but we cherish those meowments of tranquility in between. As they wind down from a big day of chasing feathers and chowing down half their weight in kibs, kittens prove that they're actually the sweetest angels on the planet. Forgive them, Father, for they do not know how mean their beans are. Perhaps part of a kitten's charm is the spicy-to-sweet ratio that humans crave with their felines. It's this surprising dash of chaos that adds a calming calamity to our lives, and we wouldn't have it any other way.

The lunar halo of mackerel clouds, darkly dappled by the spaces between, keeps the moon from being reduced to just another circle of warm white light in the electric constellation of the apartment complex—which has usually been the effect when I’ve tried to take a picture. (That startling peacock-blue color was a happy artifact of my cheap-ass flip-phone camera!)

You can see how the moon continues an arc formed by the walkway lights—somewhat resembling the head of Scorpius, with the stairway light standing in for Antares.

Howdy! My screenplay takes place in rural North Dakota in November 1996, and two teenage characters are fans of Star Trek: The Next Generation. I know the bat'leth as a weapon was introduced in the show long ago, but when did replicas and toys become widely sold? Would it be realistic for a working-class young woman to have a mini bat'leth she could use as a knife in that year? I also read that the mek'leth (smaller Klingon scimitar) was introduced in DS9 and also appeared in First Contact. How early were replicas of those available to fans?
Thanks a million to you all! Would also love to hear any other miscellaneous stories or details of the TNG+DS9 fandom of the 90s, to give some extra oomph and care to an underrepresented community :)
