Greetings Fabulous Felines and Hoomans of Hivelandia and surrounding communities!
It's important to keep your feet clean!
We have managed to make it to another weekend — actually, we have made it through another weekend! And with the weekend we also have managed to make it through my favorite day of the week: Caturday!
We're running late this week, mostly because the Mom-Hooman was out-of-town, and the Dad-Hooman was driving her there and back, becauseone of the Hooman cars is current;y out of commission.
Napping buddies!
As most of you know by now Caturday is an old web tradition dating back about 20 years, in which people with Feline friends and companions share pictures of their favorite furry friends on Saturdays!
Here at our place we're in enjoying a lazy summer although the last couple of days have been cloudy after we've had some really warm weather after our local standards.
Shangri, hamming it up for the camera!
I like the warm sunshine and I like taking naps in the sunny spots, but as a black cat even laying in the sun can get a little too hot sometimes. Thankfully we have nice comfortable cat beds in shady spots as well!
The last few days have been kind of quiet around here because the Mom-Hooman went to Seattle to visit the Daughter-Hooman and the new baby!
Sometimes a little greenery is a good thing!
She seems to like to spend time over there so much that I sometimes wonder if she's going to forget that she has cats... OK, so that's just a joke but she does spend a lot more time out of town these days.
It's OK though, because the Dad-Hooman is very good at taking care of us and making sure that we all get our treats and playtime and attention.
There's always something to look at!
As I said, was rather cool and cloudy for caturday, and the Dad-Hooman decided to forego working on his outdoor projects and instead come inside and work in his Home Office. He has been very busy sorting through things he keeps in boxes and that's very interesting to us cats because you all know how cats feel about boxes, right?
Meanwhile, it has been nice to see our own Hive token make a little bit of forward and upward movement in terms of price, as the overall crypto markets seem to be in a bit of a growth period.
"I'm NOT going to look at the camera!
I don't know how well things are really going for us though because even though we have seen gains in the price, it seems to be going backwards in terms of market capitalization ranks.
I don't care so much about the actual dollars and cents as I care about how we're doing relative to other projects out there and it seems like we're not doing so well.
It makes me feel a bit sad because I think we have something really worthwhile with Hive and there's lots of activity here compared to other projects which strike me as being purely speculative and even just what some Hoomans call "vaporware."
Shangri, and his magnificent tail!
I guess it just goes to show that Hoomans are ultimately not very sensible in their thinking and base much of what they do on what they hope is true rather than what actually is tangibly true.
Overall, everybody in the house is fairly healthy and going along happily, although old Smudge — 20 years old and counting — seems to be slowing down a bit. We do our best to keep her comfortable and well fed and loved but I suppose there comes a time in a cat's life when things naturally just don't work as well as they used to!
Smudge says: "Don't count me out!"
And with that, it is time for us to close out this week's Caturday update. We appreciate you stopping by our little cat blog and hope to see you again!
In the meantime, I hope you had a wonderful Caturday and that the rest of your week is a good one!

These are some of the more active Cat Communities — why not join them ALL? Many of the allow you to share your cat posts, even if you started at a different community!
HiveCats by @curatorcat is a central "gathering place" for cat content on Hive; promoting the use of the #hivecats tag for feline content!
Cat Snaps by @manorvillemike is a place to post pictures of your cats when you don't have a whole lot to say beyond just sharing your cute photos!
Caturday by @saboin is a community where we get to celebrate posts relating to Saturday — aka "Caturday" — our own special day!
Cat Photos by @andrarchy is a "mixed use" cat content community; posts can be just photos or longer, as long as the subject is CATS!
Cats by @captainklaus (and Sissi!) is another "general" cat content community.
There are a number of other feline communities listed on Hive, but I am not sharing them for now as they have not had any activity (by their Admins OR users) since the Steem/Hive fork. Updates as they become available!
