This is such a good idea

Who can relate?

Yuri Knorozov, the linguist who deciphered the Maya script, listed his cat Asya as a co-author on his work but the editors always removed her. He always used this photo with Asya as his author photo and got pissed whenever editors cropped her out

#academicswithcats and #catsofacademia trying to get some reading done now that the semester is over. Happy summer!

The cat has spoken: no working after hours.

While my colleague is happy to share a workspace with me, she's *not* prepared to tolerate me trying to get any actual work done!... 🙂🙃🐱 #AcademicsWithCats

I’m sure Toast disagrees heartily

Cats of Oxford Simpkin from Hertford spotted trying to get into the Development Office at Teddy Hall!

Participating in a #conference virtually is a great way to bond with your #cat. 10/10, would recommend #AltAcCats #AcademicsWithCats #CatsofTwitter #PhDCats

Incredible, congratulations! One nice thing about fostering is that it can be as large or small a commitment as works for your schedule. I’ve fostered intermittently over the past 10 years when I’ve had more time, and pulled back when I get busier. Perfect for academics!

Please share and participate (if relevant) in my sisters survey which is about cat behavior. She’s a third year Zoology student and keen to hear more about your lovely cats. There’s also chance to send a video at the end of your little fur baby. forms.gle/F2e3ist81LBBCS…
