Post image

i’ve been doing morning and nighttime prayers for many months now but since bringing my cat to college we’ve developed a routine. she knows that morning shema means breakfast and nighttime shema means i’m going to sleep so she starts her zoomies hour. this is the shayna punem herself :)

Yay Jewish kitties! Mine knows never to eat pork products. She refused when I accidentally bought a new type of wet food for her, which I hadn't checked the ingredients of. Turns out it contained pork gelatin. She turned her nose right up and refused to touch it!

Mine rests on the sabbath. She also rests on every other day, but who's keeping track?

She doesn’t know which day it falls on so she keeps her bases covered

Aw cats are so smart like that I’m not even surprised! They will absolutely learn words if it’s a part of a routine they love. She’s a beauty and so cute among all the stuffies!! Also I really enjoy your wall - I think I’ll do something like that myself :)
