trump wants a 200% tarriff on pharmaceuticals from Australia. Apparently the health and wellbeing of Americans is worth less than appeasing big pharma who want him to decree how Australia looks after its own citizens. Apparently subsidizing medicines so that people can afford them is a bad thing.

My brave boy staying away from the villainous ginger boy. #caturday

My great grandfather lies in Belgium a long distance from the wife and four children he left behind in 1917. Lest we forget.

A bit late for Caturday, but just in time for Easter Sunday. The late, great Hamish, Supreme Ruler of his universe, scared the Easter Bunny who dropped eggs as he ran off. #caturday #easter

This was how my boy let me know of his displeasure whenever my suitcase came out of the cupboard. #caturday

My little man has since passed on, but every now and then a social media reminder pops up to remind me of his big personality. He was cold this day, and I had taken the doona off the bed to remake it. I couldn’t do it when I returned to the room, as how could I disturb him? #caturday

Just saw the bleached blonde bimbo and her balding offsider on fox “news” poking fun at Michelle Obama and Kamala Harris for their hairstyles. Is that the best you’ve got? The old adage about throwing stones in glass houses comes to mind.

This is Chateau Cat. So named because I met him at a Chateau we stayed at in France last year. I bent down to pat him. The next day, in a panic, unable to find my credit card, I retraced my steps and found it in the grass. Thankfully Chateau Cat wasn't a thief and left it where it fell. #caturday

USA drug companies asking trump to impose tariffs on Australia because in Oz the government subsidises some medicines for citizens and residents. WTF? USA is upset because Oz provides healthcare in Oz? Where do I begin trying to understand why this is anyone’s business?

Even though I was the one to feed him and look after him, I was NOT the favourite human. #caturday

I’ve just completed a basic Barista course. Now I just need to learn how to do the pretty latte art. #coffee

Something lovely to wake up to. The view from my kitchen window.

Some things just make you feel good. #sunset #australia

No, I haven’t been under the house, why do you ask? #justneedabreak

This was taken during a storm when all three were underfoot in the kitchen because they wanted my protection. Sadly, only one of these three is still with us. The thing that animals do wrong is to have such short lives. #caturday

I know it’s not Caturday today, but I lost my fur baby tonight so I am feeling sad. Hamish was with us for just over 15 years, even though he was annoyed at being yanked out of the shelter (where he was bullying the other kittens), we like to think that he liked us, even if only a little. #caturday

We saw this when travelling in France. Pizza in 4 minutes from a machine. Not brave enough to try it though… #pizza

Ok, I know I looked like I had been dragged through a hedge backwards, but it was a warm day and these lovely people are very generous with the wine they serve on arrival and at lunch.... Anyway, I had a great day, and their home is amazing! Brilliant job Angel and Dick! #escapetothechateau
