Hi Reader,

Hope you and your kitty are doing well.

I want to be transparent with you about why our Facebook feed looks a little different than it has in years past. To keep Floppycats sustainable as my full-time career, I’ve had to adapt to what the algorithm rewards—which is often the lighter, 'emoji-heavy' content. However, my goal is still to bring you the deep, educational content Floppycats is known for.

To do that, I need your help to 'train' the algorithm. Facebook will only help my original content reach your newsfeed if it sees you interacting with it. Like this post of Charlie. When you take a second to like, share, or leave a comment, you are providing the fuel that allows my more meaningful work to show up in your feed more often. It’s the most direct way you can support the content you truly value. This goes for any creator on any platform. Take the time like the video, share it and comment on it! It REALLY helps us and helps more valuable content be seen.

If you have the time, I would love for you to take a look, comment, and share our recent Shorts:

• ​Why Your Litter Box Still Smells (and How to Fix It) - You can buy the Purrified Air Litter Box Air Filter on Amazon​
• ​Stop Googling Your Cat's Symptoms​

Have a great week ahead!

Peace, love, and purrs,

Jenny

1. Watch

​

​Just Chiggy Being Chiggy​

I recently uncovered a special backyard video of my late blue lynx mitted Ragdoll, Trigg, filmed in the spring of 2018. Charlie had gone inside, giving Chiggy and me a peaceful, quiet moment together.

Watching it is bittersweet since I miss him so deeply, but it perfectly captures his unique spirit. In just five minutes, you get to see:

• His adorable head twirls as he rolls over in the grass.
• The funny way he wraps himself around the backyard brick pillar (and around me).
• His incredible patience while I pick dirt from his coat (Charlie would never let me get away with that!).
• How much he absolutely loved getting his scratches.

I hope this brings a smile to your face and helps you remember him fondly.

​Sunken Cat Hammocks​

My friend, Amiee, sent me these photos of her cats, Miso and Tofu, enjoying their new desk hammocks that her boyfriend bought for them. They look pretty darn comfy. Her boyfriend bought these Sunken Cat Hammocks on Amazon.

​Gus – Floppycat of the Week​

"I rescued Gus 2 years ago and he rescued me back. My boys (a black domestic shorthair 16 years, and an American bobtail 13 years) had died two months before– within one week of each other. One from kidney disease, and one I didn’t know was sick."
