I joined #mastodon last week, on a whim, with no idea what to expect
Minutes later, I was welcomed by @dillyd which has never happened on any other platform and was a wonderful introduction. So I posted a couple pictures of my #cats, and found, to my surprise, people reacting and interacting
Maybe it's because I'm not fighting an algorithm, or maybe I just found a place where folks truly appreciate cats. Either way, I'm very happy to be here, and I hope you're prepared for more cat pictures
@rufustheduck finding @dillyd right from the start is a nice find, one of the nicest posters here.
And posting cats is kind of an easy win here

Welcome, and have fun!

@stepheneb @rufustheduck @dillyd I had a calico called luna too!
-
@HollieK72 I try to make a good first impression
@rufustheduck And it worked! I hope you enjoy it here.

@rufustheduck Welcome to the neighbourhood!

@Cycling_Liz I cycle, take photos of pretty places on my way to work in London, and while I don't have other pets, I do have a garden full of foxes. I haven't started knitting yet, but there's still time
@rufustheduck Ah you got me at the foxes! Let's see the foxes if you can get close enough 🥰 Welcome btw! It's a lot friendlier here than some other places.

@rufustheduck welcome to the fedi and happy #caturday
Ezechiel says hello (at least he will when is out of the box) -
@rufustheduck Welcome to the neighbourhood!
@CiaraNi thank you! it's nice to be here
-
@Cycling_Liz how about this?
@rufustheduck That's amazing. Love it. Thank you. What an amazing fox. I used to live in a flat with a court yard and they'd race around after each other screaming
Their lovely faces, eyes and coats make up for their nighttime antics. -
@stepheneb @rufustheduck @dillyd I had a calico called luna too!
@Haikyoneko gorgeous!
-
@rufustheduck tell your cats I love them
@Phoosy I did. They're very happy about it
-
@rufustheduck @dillyd
Louis says hello and thank you.@Louis_c_Harrington hello back at you!
-
@rufustheduck @dillyd Cats! Here's one of mine
@metalmartijn beautiful!
-
@Haikyoneko gorgeous!
@rufustheduck yeah, she was a special girl.

Oh no, you’ve done it now. I would like to point out that some of the crazy cat people here are actually interesting people in our own right, but we do get a bit carried away over cats.
@Susan60 adorable!

@rufustheduck @dillyd@turtleisland.social Hi Rufus, you are clearly a wonderful addition to Mastodon and thanks to @dillyd for noticing this immediately. As I adore cats and am sadly also allergic to them, seeing cats is a delight for me. Good to have you here.
@Amistad thank you! I'm very happy to be here
-
@rufustheduck Oddly enough, I used to know a cat called Rufus. Even more oddly, he was black not ginger.
But then I had a cat called Tabitha who was a tortoiseshell. I don't know why she was Tabitha, that was her name when she came to live with me.
Abby says Hullo. She too arrived with her name, but I can guess at its origin.@HarrietMonkhouse please say hello back from me
