Greetings, Fabulous Felines and Hoomans of Hivelandia and surrounding communities!
Hope this week is treating you kindly... we have managed to arrive at mid-week, and around our place it is always a good time to share new cat pictures!
Shangri is growing into a very handsome young cat!
I suggested to the Dad-Hooman that he take some new photos and put them on the blog now because I know he's going to be very busy this weekend, because there's going to be another of those "art shows" the Hoomans like to attend.
I actually approve of this particular event because there are a couple of vendors there who make pet toys and treats, and last year the Hoomans brought home several fun items for us!
Nala is a Pretty Pretty Princess!
Thankfully, the Hoomans won't be gone till late at night as the show is only open till 4:00pm on both Saturday and Sunday.
Meanwhile, the big green tree is now in the living room, and I await my opportunity to sneak in through a not-fully-closed door to play with all the sparkly toys!
Guarding the Dad-Hooman's boxes of creative supplies!
This will, of course, be Shangri and Nala's first Christmas with us, so it'll be interesting to see whether they enjoy all the sparkles and extra kitty treats as much as I do!
I feel pretty sure they will!

The Holiday schedule seems to have become almost settled now.
The Daughter-Hooman will be coming over to visit the weekend of the 21st, and then head back to Seattle for Christmas to spend it at the in-laws' place.
The Son-Hooman will also be here, and he'll come back for Christmas Day, when Hoomans also like to have friends over for Christmas dinner.
Two cats, watching the world!
In other news, it still looks like I might fall a little short on my Hive goal for reaching 5,000 HP before the end of 2024... unless I get a couple of "whole sized" upvotes in the next three weeks.
But that's OK, I'll just keep plugging away at it... we are here for the long term!
At least it has been really nice to see the price of Hive pick up a little... as I have stated before, if we can just get back to where we finished last year — a little under $0.37 — I would feel a certain amount of relief.
Pensive Shangri
Our young cats are quickly gaining an understanding that they are part of the Curator Cat world, and lots of pictures will be taken.
Shangri is such a pretty cat, and very photogenic as well, with his rather dramatically deep golden eyes standing out against his soft yellow/buff coloring.
Nala is a little more difficult to photograph because she is always "in motion," and she's living up to the reputation that calico cats often are "a little bit crazy!"
Shangri is a well-balanced cat!
Well, I think I am hearing the dinner plates being set up in the kitchen, so I'd better run and make sure I don't miss out on a good snack!
Thanks for visiting our cat blog, and we hope to see you again soon, perhaps for Caturday!

Love Cats? Get Involved in Hive's Cat Communities!
If you're a cat lover and often/sometimes post pictures or other content that includes your feline friends, why not become an active part of Hive's growing Cat Communities?
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!
