We’ve had so much Wilfdfire smoke it is coming all the way from California and Oregon! For two weeks this has been what it looks like from our deck. Sometimes the smoke is different colors like orangey-yellow. And it is very poor visibility. And smells smokey.

Then we had two nights of rain YAY! and the smoke has started to clear.

We have been Very Busy taking care of kittens! Two kitten families is a lot of feeding and cleaning and socializing and cleaning and appointments for shots and spay\neuter and removing food from messy faces. This is the sink after breakfast feeding.

The youngest ones are starting to gain weight more quickly and are more playful. At first they wanted lots of cuddle time and reassurance now they are more confident. They are all girls except Fluffy Mittens so now we can pick permanent names!

Also mom has been Very Busy at work because they got Hacked! So we had to take the network offline and kick the hackers out and check everything and make everything super-duper safe and change everyone’s passwords and bring it all back online. We were like “we don’t negotiate with hackers talk to the HAMMER!”. Mom even helped identify the threat when she noticed that a server had restarted for no reason and alerted her boss who did not like what was in the server log and passed it on to the corporate security team who jumped into high gear to stop the hackers. It’s all about teamwork!
