Looking at shoes.

Dorit Reiss@doritreiss· 14d

I sat down to tie my shoes. Someone came to be petted and play with shoe laces. #hazel #catsofbsky

She was 9 pounds in January, but grew quite a bit. The vet end of January thought she was 6-7 months by her teeth, a big breed. Here’s her next to her food bowl and a chair, if that helps.

Happy cat. #hazel #catsofbsky

She’s had a hard day. If you’re wondering, she likes crinkly paper. Leave it around and she’ll carry it off and do something with it. #hazel #catsofbsky

What do you think she wants? #hazel #catsofbsky

Antivaccine activists (even past scientists) do not know how to use analogies. Taking the HPV series is not equivalent to never going in traffic: it’s like going in traffic while observing precautions. Here is a scientist explaining analogies. thelogicofscience.com/2026/06/25/u...

Tweet by Peter Gotzsche: “If you get vaccinated against HPV, you will lower your risk by 94% of getting neck or throat cancer (Danish radio news 29 June). Well, if you take penicillin every day for the rest of your life, you won’t get gonorrhoea. If you stay indoors, you won’t be killed in the traffic.”

From @acyn.bsky.social on that other platform: x.com/Acyn/status/...

Kerry Kennedy on her brother RFK JR: There was a snake in the garden. He rushed over with his infant son in one hand—he grabbed this snake and stuffed it into the pillowcase while he was holding his infant son.

He walked up to where the rest of the birthday party was, and he reached into the bag. And the snake was just chomping on his hand, and he pulled out the snake to show the kids. Then there was a vole and he grabbed that with his hand and he put it into the bag with the snake, which made all the kids scream.

Then we went over to his house a mile away. There were tons of kids in the swimming pool and he released this snake that had chomped on his hand into the swimming pool.

Now, so this is somebody who, on the one hand, has a fascination with nature, but on the other hand has, you know, a lack of judgment when it comes to the safety and care of children and of and so is this the person who you want running HHS who's got this lack of judgment when it comes to health and safety?

Secretary Kennedy pretended in the past to support free speech. Now he is using his position to bully a medical journal, in a way that's reminiscent of the conduct the Supreme Court struck down here: supremecourt.gov/opinions/23p... He cites no regulatory authority, and has none.

"I sent this letter to the Editor-in-Chief of Toxicology Reports demanding a full explanation for the removal of a published article examining vaccines and sudden infant death.

Americans have a right to know why scientific papers are removed, who made those decisions, what evidence supported them, and whether the same standards are applied consistently.

We will restore trust in public health by insisting on transparency, accountability, and open scientific inquiry—not by asking the public to accept decisions behind closed doors."

#Hazel says: it’s too hot. Norwegian forest cats aren’t made for it. #catsofbluesky

#Hazel has gotten to the top of the last cat tree she had to claim in our home. She is on top of her kingdom now. #catsofbluesky

Anti-vaccine activists like their cut and paste. Luckily, my friend Kathy - @handmadekathy.bsky.social - addressed this bad list - which includes opinion pieces, junk science, and off-topic studies - a long time ago. vaccinesworkblog.wordpress.com/2017/08/10/t... #autism

If you need a smile. Mild swearing.

Screenshot of message that says "S.W. Animal Clinic: Hi Michael, The Rotisserie Bastard is done with his procedure and ready for pick up."
Then, explanation from "Mike": "We call our dog R.B. for short. It stands for Rotisserie Bastard because when we adopted him he ate an entire rotisserie chicken. I constantly forget I put his full government name on file at the vet."

The fierce predator is in hunting mode. She saw and attacked suspicious feet peeking out of a blanket, then jumped in the cat tree to look at birds tweeting outside the window, then came back to do more hunting on our bed. Good morning. #Hazel #catsofbluesky

Guess who has taken to coming onto our bed in the morning for a petting session. Can’t take pictures then, though. #hazel #catsofbluesky
