OYSTERHOOD is reclusiveness or solitude, or an overwhelming desire to stay at home.

A day of resting and recuperating. My love and I started watching Mare of Easttown. Great beginning; I am hooked.

Tomorrow is our next appointment with a specialist vet. I have many questions and a lot more hope. To feel less afraid, I had a look at some of Salieri’s kitten photographs that featured on this blog quite a long time ago.

Note that Salieri already understood Olga Tokarczuk’s greatness when she was a kitten (fourteen years ago!). She read Sunday newspapers, studied the thesaurus, and together with Mozart assisted with the writing of my PhD thesis at a very tender age.

She needs to write many more chapters of her life, and the vets and I have to make sure that she gets to share her purring stories.

Be kind. Wear a mask. Support local.
