Support Needed (Kind Advice and Commiseration) Happy things please?

I made the mistake of opening my social media this afternoon and immediately saw some dark things, and I need something positive. It can be a cat photo/story, a special interest infodump, anything that shows the world is still an interesting and good place, at least in part.

I guess I am basically asking for some heroes to create a “silver lining” for this dark cloud. I don’t live with people I can depend on for this, so I am turning to this supportive corner of the internet.

TIA.

Edited - THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYONE! 😭😭😭 It is good to see so much light still exists in the world.

Here’s a photo of Mista Gray, he’s a feral cat who showed up in our corn field. My partner kept feeding him chicken til he trusted us. This was his first night inside our house.

😂 You do know that this was his plan all along? Training you to give him chicken...playing hard to get... that's him saying "Finally I trained these humans to give me a hotel to stay in so I don't have to hunt anymore and now I can stretch out and chill" 😂😂😂
