Greetings, Fabulous Felines and Hoomans of Hivelandia and surrounding communities!

It's the weekend, at last, and we all know what that means: It's Caturday, my favorite day of the week!

Smudge! Photo by @cosmictriage.

Today, we honor our old lady kitty Smudge with the primary photo fot eh update, as she joined the Mom-Hooman for a bit of Yoga, earlier.

Despite the "owly eared" look she's actually not grumpy; she's just curious and watching.

What are all these boxes doing on MY table?

Hard to believe we have already made it halfway through 2025... but there are only a couple of days left in the month of June. It hasn't exactly been a great year around here, so we try to find little things to be grateful for, such as our health and the fact that we do have a roof over our heads!

And, of course, we all still have our paws and whiskers intact... and there are sunny spots, and those are good things!

Nala, by the window, being pensive

The Mom-Hooman had a good time in Seattle, visiting the Daughter-Hooman and her new baby, so that was a good thing!

She arrived back home yesterday with the Son-Hooman who is spending a couple of days with us before he has to go back to this thing he calls "work." I'm glad we cats don't have to work..

Shangri, taking relaxation to the whole new level!

At mid-year, I am falling a bit short on my Hive goals... but then again, it hasn't exactly been a stellar year for the altcoins and for our own Hive token.

I'm going to have to "up my game" a good bit in the second half of the year to reach my goal of official "dolphinhood" before we run out of year!

Two can play at the "ridiculously relaxed" game!

The Hoomans seem to worry a lot about something they are calling "the cost of living" these days. Personally, I'm not too worried, as long as it doesn't affect the cat treats budget! Because that would be a tragedy... and we'd probably have to go on strike!

Then again, that would likely take too much effort... naptime is a better solution!

Having a house meeting!

And that's about all for this week's Caturday update! I hope your Caturday has been a good one, and that you have a lovely and safe remainder of your weekend!

We appreciate you coming to visit our blog, and hope to see you again!

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!
