Friday Cat Blogging – 29 September 2017

At the very last minute of our stay in Kerry, the sun came out and so did the cat at the bottom of the hill. His owner gave us grief the last time we got out of the car in front of her driveway, so we haven’t tried to make friends with him since our first day. However, she was gone Wednesday afternoon, so I stopped briefly to snap a few pictures. I don’t know this cat’s name, but since we live on Coad Road I’ve been calling him the Coad Cat. He looks kind of sour in this shot, but that’s just the set of his face. In reality he’s a handsome and (normally) sociable critter.

The truth needs defenders. Be one.

This week is our Spring Membership Drive, and we need to raise 1,000 new donations to fund the critical investigations our team is hard at work on. As of today, we’re only at 200 of that 1,000-donation goal.

Our nonprofit newsroom is funded by donors from every state in the union—blue, red, and purple, all part of a community of readers who care about the future of our democracy.

We’re independent from corporations and uninfluenced by those in power. Our commitment is solely to the truth. That’s only possible because of readers like you, who believe in the importance of independent, fearless journalism.
