Greetings Fabulous Felines and Hoomans of Hivelandia and surrounding communities!
I hope this new week is starting off well for you! Things are somewhat busy around here, with the Hoomans being in the middle of lots of creative work, in preparation for an "arts and crafts show" they are participating in, this weekend!
Smudge, in mid-meow!
A Smudge Post, for a Change!
Anyway, I thought it would be a good time to give my fluffy housemate Smudge a little more exposure... she's just as interested in all the creativity as I am!
The Mom-Hooman was doing some sewing on the big table in the dining room, and Smudge thought that was fascinating.
She immediately had to explore the sewing machine bag:
Is this a new kind of cat bed? (photo by @cosmictriage)
She examined the bag for a while, then tried to sleep in it... but decided that it really wasn't what she'd hoped for, because she couldn't really see out and look at what was going on.
Being aware of your surroundings is important, when you're a cat!
This was fun... but not THAT fun! (photo by @cosmictriage)
After a while, Smudge returned to her favorite afternoon sleeping spot on the black leather footstool... and promptly went back to sleep.
But — like all good cats — she had to make sure that this strange new bed/bag got a full Smudge inspection!
Back to sleep... in her spare time, Smudge likes to read Jung, other psychology and spiritual books!
Meanwhile...
When not inspecting art-related endeavors by the Hoomans, I have been revisiting some of my goals and ambitions for our cat blog, for this year... and pondering the question of what happens to a goal when you actually reach it.
Do you just stop and set a completely different goal, in a different direction... and consider yourself "done" with the original plan? Or do you just revise your original goal up, and keep plugging?
Pondering life's deeper questons!
I have a few things and investments that are about to change... so I have been pondering this question.
But enough about that! This post was mostly for Smudge!

Love Cats? Get Involved in Hive's Cat Communties!
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? Remember, you can also "cross-post" your cat posts to them!
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 Community 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! It has a lot of subscribers but is not very active.
Cats by @captainklaus (and Sissi!) is another "general" cat content community; it's there, but not very active.
Last, but certainly not least, a special shoutout to the recently formed Hive Pets Community which has become quite active and has quite a bit of cat content!
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!
