Harry Update: My 4yo void had surgery (a leg amputation) yesterday to try and clear him of his fibrosarcoma. The surgeon said there wasn’t any obvious disease near his margins and Harry did great. He’s home now and crashed on the bed with me.4yr ⋅ katpalmy ⋅ r/blackcats
UPDATE! Stolen pen recovered by Indianapolis Detective, thief in custody, and I am stoked! Details in comments.4yr ⋅ katpalmy ⋅ r/fountainpens
Wish us luck - my void Harry has major surgery tomorrow to try and fully remove his fibrosarcoma. He’s such a pretty and sweet void!4yr ⋅ katpalmy ⋅ r/blackcats
Albert beans - he somehow ate what he shouldn’t have been able to find and had to have emergency surgery to save him and unblock his intestines. He’s doped up but still sweet as ever! Healing beans!!5yr ⋅ katpalmy ⋅ r/jellybeantoes
Harry met with the oncologist today - no evidence of metastasis of his sarcoma, so we are meeting with the surgeon 3/11 to talk about a big surgery. Brave black void!!4yr ⋅ katpalmy ⋅ r/blackcats
STOLEN - A package with this Sailor was stolen off my porch today in Indianapolis. If you by weird chance see one come up for sale in the Midwest/Indy please let me know. Filing with police now.4yr ⋅ katpalmy ⋅ r/fountainpens

Holy grail of all grails - my precious is here!! I can’t believe I can finally own something so beautiful; I’ve been lusting over it for more than a year. The Raden is so stunning, even moreso in person!6yr ⋅ katpalmy ⋅ r/fountainpens

This is Harry. He is 4 and became a tripod yesterday to try and beat cancer. He has fibrosarcoma and the surgeon said there wasn’t any obvious cancer around the margins. Now we wait for the pathology. He’s home now and sleeping next to me tonight.4yr ⋅ katpalmy ⋅ r/TripodCats
My new Duraflex is great but it’s going to be a struggle waiting for the ink to dry!6yr ⋅ katpalmy ⋅ r/fountainpens
Harry has quite the flair for the dramatic. We rescued him at 14w so he's embraced the spoiled lifestyle.7yr ⋅ katpalmy ⋅ r/catpictures
My cat murdered my favorite mug. I got it at Rocky Ripple Festival 2018 and cannot find the artist. It was a husband and wife team from indiana. Does anyone recognize this? Know who the artist is? Thanks!5yr ⋅ katpalmy ⋅ r/indianapolis

This is what makes me nuts about Noodler’s. Bottom is my friend’s and why I bought a bottle. I got the top and it’s not the same or in any way appealing to me.6yr ⋅ katpalmy ⋅ r/fountainpens
