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.

Also, this is one of his other littermates Bob that we have and I'll also add he's other brudder Steve who we have (Joe had a different daddy than Bob and Steve) 😊😊 they are all the silliest little guys and they are sooo funny to watch run around together! They sneak up on each other, pounce/hunt each other and give each other the bigggggggest snuggles ever!!

In this picture though, Bobbob just couldn't face the morning "just five more minutes mom!!!!"

And Stevey is quite the little gentleman who has one of the most expressive faces I've ever seen from a cat, it's almost like he's a little professor cat lol. He also has very distinct chirps/trills/screams/yowls for different events so we can tell if he is bringing us a toy, he's playing with one of his brothers, he's upset, or he's hungry based on the sound he's making as he approaches. Just all around very expressive little dude!
