Hi everyone,

We are aware that you have chosen to close your community at this time. Mods have a right to take a break from moderating, or decide that you don’t want to be a mod anymore. But active communities are relied upon by thousands or even millions of users, and we have a duty to keep these spaces active.

Subreddits belong to the community of users who come to them for support and conversation. Moderators are stewards of these spaces and in a position of trust. Redditors rely on these spaces for information, support, entertainment, and connection.

Our goal here is to ensure that existing mod teams establish a path forward to make sure your subreddit is available for the community that has made its home here. If you are willing to reopen and maintain the community, please take steps to begin that process. Many communities have chosen to go restricted for a period of time before becoming fully open, to avoid a flood of traffic.

If this community remains private, we will reach out soon with information on what next steps will take place.

If the human is seated at the desk, it is clearly only so that April may have a perch to rest on. If I don't lean back enough I get the pokey claw to the chin. Even as I post this later she has come back to take her spot again, but at least my fingers are free this time to send my plea.

This is my favorite part of my day every day. I know I'll eventually be in pain from hours of fat kitties on me but for now it's so comfy lol

My wife claims Slutloaf is her cat. I think there may be a difference of opinion concerning ownership.

Pierrette strikes again! Here she is earlier on my lap during my virtual math class. If last time she was stopping me from studying, this time she was stopping me from not studying.
