little blue butterflies

Oh my mouses!  OH MY MOUSES!  Oh my mousie mousin' moosie MOUSES!

Yeah, I know that moosie part is weird; but somehow it sounded better with it, than without.

MOUSES!

But anyway...

But anyway, I bet you're all wonderin' why I, Seville the Cat, am so very, very excited.

Well!

Well guess what Peepers got me.  Or um...  Hmmm...  Or opened for me, rather.  I suppose...  Never mind, just guess what Peepers opened for me.  For me, Seville the Cat.

Guess!

Give up?

Okay, I'll tell you, instead of makin' you wait in suspense any longer.

PEEPERS OPENED A BLUESKY ACCOUNT FOR ME.  She opened it for me and only ME!

Yup, I, Seville the Cat, have now got MY VERY OWN account over on Bluesky.

MOUSES!

And she didn't cheap out on me like she did over on Facebook.  Oh sure, on Facebook I've got a fan page and all, which is nice, I suppose.  But I don't have my own profile page over there, like she does. I don't have anythin' like that,  THAT - a profile page, I mean - I have to share with the peep.

Usually without her knowin'.

MOUSES!

But the point is, I've never quite forgiven her for makin' me share, and not openin' a profile page on Facebook that is my very own.  

MOUSES!

But things are different over on Bluesky, my friends.  Yup, things over on Bluesky are different, for sure.  ON BLUESKY, the account is all mine.  Mine, I tell you.  MINE!  That Bluesky account is well and truly mine.

MOUSES!

And I have to admit, she - aka Peepers - was pretty smart about it, too.  Since Bluesky is similar to the old Twitter where tweetin' was bright and carefree and joyous and fun, she kept my information and whatnot kinda the same.  So if you wanna find me over on Bluesky, just look up Seville the Cat or @nerissathecat 'cause that, my friends, is exactly where I'm at.

MOUSES!

Now I'm still figurin' stuff out over on Bluesky.  Makin' my way, and all that jazz.  And one thing I'm not sure of is the lingo.  On Facebook, I post.  On Twitter, I tweet.

Yeah, I know.  It's all X this and X that, now.  But x-ing sounds really weird.

But anyway, what do we call it on Bluesky?

Someone said skeeting.  Yup, someone said that on Bluesky, we skeet.  Hmmm...

Well, I'm totally new there so if skeetin' is the goin' word, I've gotta be okay with usin' that.  I mean, I can't barge in there and boss peeps around.

But...

But if cats and peeps actually haven't quite decided yet...  

HOW 'BOUT WE CALL IT FLITTING?

Now hear me out, about this:  Bluesky has this cute little blue butterfly as it's logo or whatever, and I was tryin' to think of what butterflies sound like.  You know, 'cause tweetin' is what birdies do and Twitter had a birdie, and we called posts, tweets.  So I thought whatever butterflies sound like would be appropriate for my postin' on Bluesky.  It kinda makes sense.  You know? 

But then I realised that even though I, Seville the Cat, have SEEN many a butterfly in all my nine lives, I've never actually heard one.

Oh sure, I've heard Peepers rantin' and ravin' and screamin' and stuff on account of those little white butterfly-like moths and their babies decimatin' her broccolini and similar plants, but those sounds were all emanatin' from her.  

And that is NOT somethin' any of us should copy.

My gosh, my ears are still recuperatin' from when she found those holes in the leaves of her stocks.

MOUSES!

But even though I couldn't think of any sounds butterflies make, I did think of somethin' they do.

Other than their mothy cousins eatin' peeps' plants, that is.

Other than that, my friends, BUTTERFLIES FLIT.

Yeah, they flit.  They flit here and there and just about almost everywhere, amongst the flowers in the garden and stuff.

SO WHO'S WITH ME, MY PALS?  WHO'S WITH ME?  Who here wants to join me on Bluesky and flit?

And yes, I will still be tweetin' on Twitter.  At least for now.

And yeah, I'm STILL callin' it Twitter' even though the background has gone all dark and yucky and spooky and murky, along with a myriad of other nasty ol' things.

MOUSES!

Just remember, you can find me on Bluesky easily enough.  Just search for me, Seville the Cat OR @nerissathecat 'cause THAT is where I'm now at. 

Paw me a follow and I'll follow you back.

MOUSES!
