This blog is a mess, but full of things that mostly make me happy. I'm shy and awkward so sorry if I’m bad at social interaction. BIO: I'm a 34 year old PhD student (old, I know). I have been on Tumblr since 2011.
Get it together, Amazon Flow.
That’s obviously a cat.
What good are you if you can only recognize bar codes and book covers?

Look at this fluffball!
Fishing Cat (Prionailurus viverrinus)
… a medium-sized wild cat of South and Southeast Asia. In 2008, the IUCN classified the fishing cat as endangered since they are concentrated primarily in wetland habitats, which are increasingly being settled, degraded and converted. Over the last decade, the fishing cat population throughout much of its Asian range declined severely. Like its closest relative, the leopard cat, the fishing cat lives along rivers, streams and mangrove swamps. It is well adapted to this habitat, being an eager and skilled swimmer…

Pallas’s Cat (Otocolobus manul)
Have you ever wanted to take a trip through time to see what animals looked like millions of years ago? When it comes to cats there is little or no need. This beautiful specimen is a Manul, otherwise known as Pallas’s Cat. About twelve million years ago it was one of the first two modern cats to evolve and it hasn’t changed since. The other species, Martelli’s Cat, is extinct so what you are looking at here is a unique window in to the past of modern cats.
Although the Manul is only the size of the domestic cat, reaching about 26 inches in length its appearance makes it appear somewhat larger. It is stocky and has very lengthy, thick fur, which gives it, perhaps to human eyes, an unintentional appearance of feline rotundity. Yet although it appears stout and somewhat ungainly it has a natural elegance and poise – exactly what you would expect from the genus Felis in other words. Plus it can certainly look after itself in a fight!
The main reason for its survival throughout the ages has been its isolation. In the wild it lives on the Asian steppes at substantial heights – up to 13,000 feet…
Andean Mountain Cat (Leopardus jacobita)
Its habitat and appearance make it the small cat analog of the Snow Leopard, in that it lives around 3,500–4,800 m (11,500–15,700 ft) - well above the tree line - and only where there is water to support it. While it is about the size of a domestic cat, it appears larger because of its long tail and thick fur… (read more: Wikipedia)

Sometimes there’s a blip in the universe, and a soul is reincarnated into two bodies at once, and those two bodies end up in the same household.
