@gop @SenateGOP @HouseGOP @RepCiscomani @FoxNews Here you go, kids. This is what #ANTIFA means & its historical significance. The #NoKingsOct18 peaceful gatherings are to STOP Fascists from being accepted & revered in our country. You can help to stop fascism! @RpsAgainstTrump

Popeye is a cute 5-month old gray and white tabby with a congenital eye condition called "sunken eye". His right eye is fully functional but it sits back farther than his left eye, resulting in poor depth perception. For the first few months of his life, he was very scared because he couldn't see well, so he simply hid from the world. Once we had him in foster for a couple of weeks he realized how great his life indoors could be, and he really came out of his shell. He loves to play and be petted, and he starts purring and making biscuits as soon as he sees a person walk into the room. He's an adorable playful kitten who needs a loving and patient family to work with him as he learns to live with his vision issue. He's so happy to be an indoor kitty and he'll make a great companion for anyone wanting to share their love with a kitten discovering life! Apply here: loudouncommunitycats.org/adoptions

It's Vyshyvanka Day in Ukraine🇺🇦! This is my father's vyshyvanka, which my grandmother embroidered. After the restoration, the shirt looks better, but, unfortunately, not perfect. How old is the vyshyvanka? I'm 56 and it seems to me that my father was courting girls in this shirt.😄🫡🐱🇺🇦

We learned something new about Garfield today. Fur two hours, he was in his heated bed but not sleeping. He was cranky, even gave me a warning hiss, which he hadn’t done in a while. You can see in the photo that he was not a happy camper. We thought he wasn’t feeling well again. Nope. We left the front door open. It leads to a small, fully enclosed porch and several of our kitties like to hold meetings there. Garfield was scared. He’s not scared of the doorbell, he’s not scared of visitors, but he did not like the door being open at all. Thankfully, after we locked everything back up, he reverted to his new and improved self rather quickly. His new favorite thing to do is to drunkenly head butt everything and you can see a wonderful example of it in the video. He’s still jumpy and trusts us about as far as his tail goes, but at the same time he’s changed so much towards calm and friendly. *THUNK*BOOP* 😀🐈🐾🧡

Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський
For centuries, we have been captivated by its pattern. But now it is our turn to create the pattern ourselves – through our lives, our fight, and every new step we take. Every day, Ukrainians embroider it with their own hands – defending what they hold dear, rebuilding what has been destroyed, healing wounds, teaching children, and continuing to learn themselves. We preserve our memory and build the future. Happy Vyshyvanka Day, Ukraine! Celebrating the destiny we embroider in independence!

Toru Miyazaki gave 11 cats with advanced kidney disease an experimental injection. 15 others didn’t get it. A year later, 9 of the 11 treated cats were alive. Only 3 of the 15 untreated cats survived. He just filed for approval, and the drug fixes a defect only cats have. Most cats die from one thing: their kidneys fail. By age 10, 4 in 10 cats already have chronic kidney disease, and by age 15, the rate doubles to 8 in 10. Once diagnosed, a cat has about 2 years left. The reason kidney disease hits cats so hard is a broken protein in their blood. All mammals carry a protein that helps the kidneys clean out waste. In humans and dogs, the protein floats freely and goes to work when the kidneys are in trouble. In cats, it stays stuck to another protein and can’t get loose. So the waste piles up, and the kidneys eventually give out. Miyazaki originally found the protein in 1999, back when he was at the University of Tokyo. He figured out the cat-specific glitch in 2015. The paper he published in the Veterinary Journal in February laid out the trial. The injection is a working version of the missing protein. His company, the Institute for AIM Medicine, filed the approval paperwork with Japan’s Ministry of Agriculture on April 24, 2026. If the review clears, the drug goes on sale in spring 2027. The 30-year lifespan figure in the tweet is Miyazaki’s own projection of what cats could reach without kidney disease. The trial only ran a year, and the average cat today lives 15. Most die from the same disease this injection treats. The research almost died in 2020. After running out of funding during COVID, Miyazaki went public. Cat owners across Japan responded by sending in 300 million yen, around 2 million dollars total. He resigned from the University of Tokyo and worked on the drug full time. The treatment in front of regulators today exists because cat lovers refused to let the research die.
