At the time of recording "Beauty & the Beast" (1991), Celine Dion was actually considered an "up & coming" singer. Disney was concerned she may not have been a "strong enough" pull to do the song alone. They asked the seasoned and well-known R&B star, Peabo Bryson to sing the duet along with Celine. It became a massive hit and it would also win them a Grammy for the song.
Peabo Bryson & Celine Dion truly gave us one of the most magical Disney theme songs of all time with "Beauty & the Beast". Peabo's signature sound and soothing tones will definitely be missed, but never forgotten.
Popeye is a cute 5-month old gray and white tabby with a congenital eye condition called "sunken eye". His right eye is fully functional but it sits back farther than his left eye, resulting in poor depth perception. For the first few months of his life, he was very scared because he couldn't see well, so he simply hid from the world. Once we had him in foster for a couple of weeks he realized how great his life indoors could be, and he really came out of his shell. He loves to play and be petted, and he starts purring and making biscuits as soon as he sees a person walk into the room. He's an adorable playful kitten who needs a loving and patient family to work with him as he learns to live with his vision issue. He's so happy to be an indoor kitty and he'll make a great companion for anyone wanting to share their love with a kitten discovering life!

I’m only posting this because it seems a lot of people don’t know this: If you have cats PLEASE do not bring lilies into your home.
I was sent a bouquet for Mother’s Day, and I didn’t notice there were lilies in it until I started trimming up the flowers to put into a vase. The kitties were playing in the box they came in, so I rushed them to the emergency vet because I know lilies are fatally toxic to cats. Even a few specks of pollen is enough to send them into aggressive kidney failure. I wish I was being dramatic, but it really is that bad.
Fortunately their bloodwork came back normal and I was able to bring my girls back home.
Make sure you do your research before sending a pet owner flowers or plants! The gesture is so kind and appreciated, but make sure you’re not sending something that could harm their animals!
my kitten started choking again today (y’all who follow me know this mf STAY CHOKING😭) & thank god i know the cat heimlich because it’s one of the scariest things when your pet starts to choke.
so here’s my bi-monthly “you should learn the cat heimlich if you have cats” tweet

Pleased to share my favorite high-resolution capture of the Artemis II launch- the moment the SLS is clearing the tower, captured by a sound-triggered camera placed near the pad.
I'll have prints linked in my bio for this one, and here's a short thread about how it was captured
