It took him 11 years to find the perfect office-box. Now that he has, Dr. Fintan is very eager to get to work, and would appreciate it if everyone would stop interrupting him by telling him how cute he is… #AcademicCats #CatsOfTwitter

Dr. Fintan says that you are perfect just as you are. If your only New Years Resolution is to be kind to yourself and give a cat some water from the sink whenever they ask, you will be doing just fine. #CatsOfTwitter #AcademicCats

How it started (2016); How it’s going (2022).
May your Yule time be as contented and peaceful as a former Boatyard Cat, napping under a Christmas tree. #CatsOfTwitter #AcademicCats #MeowyChristmas

Trust the cat who grew up in a boatyard to seek out and liberate the catnip fish that Santa left him amidst a whole pile of presents.... #AcademicCats #CatsOfTwitter

Dr. Fintan had to get his nails trimmed & a shot for a herpes flare-up this week…This is the look I got through the exam room door…and why he is known in the boatyards as The Terror of East Boston. #AcademicCats #CatsOfTwitter

Dr. Fintan sometimes deigns to play hide-and-seek. Last night was one of those times.

“You’re still posting silly pictures of me on that bird site, aren’t you?”

It is #caturday so allow me to introduce my feline supervisors. Very senior supervisor Simon is a 17 year old void of great cunning. JackJack is only 15 and spent his early years in New Orleans. He likes to be the trumpet in an imaginary Second Line at 2am. Simon is a Siamese mix but Jack is the louder of the two. #catsofmastodon #felineSupervisors #academicCats
