I woke up to a stray cat in my bed this morning after my front door blew open during a wind storm last night
So I’ve posted already about this guy I named Sam who’s a very lovely stray that comes and visits me for a couple hours every evening and then leaves. Usually he sits outside the side door and waits until I open it. Then he sits on the couch with me or eats his food in the kitchen, takes a little nap and then leaves.
However last night there was a bad rain storm. I was out grabbing something from my truck and suddenly I heard a cry/meow from down the street. So I called out Sam’s name and he came running down the street towards me absolutely soaking wet and looked miserable. He followed me inside the house and let me towel him off and clean his muddy fur. I gave him some food, he took a nap and left after a couple hours. I went to bed about 4 hours later.
I woke up for work at 5am and sat up realizing there was a ball of floof in my bed. I was still half asleep and thoroughly confused for a few seconds. I pet the floof which meowed back so I turned on a light and realized it was Sam in my bed 😂😭 He was just laying there sleeping until I said his name and then he snuggled up next to me and started making biscuits. I was walking around the house trying to figure out how he got in and then discovered my front door was open halfway after being blown open from the windstorm.
Eventually I had to get ready for work so I sat down on the couch and he sat down next to me and held my leg 😭❤️

Sagalassos, located in the Ta**us Mountains near Burdur, Turkey, was a prominent ancient city founded during the 5th century BCE and became part of the Hellenistic Kingdom of Pergamon before being absorbed into the Roman Empire.
Under Roman rule, it thrived as a key urban center of the region of Pisidia, known for its monumental architecture, including the theater, Roman baths, and a magnificent fountain (nymphaeum).
The city was also famous for its high-quality ceramic production and trade, which contributed significantly to its prosperity.
Sagalassos began to decline after a series of earthquakes in the 6th and 7th centuries CE, coupled with economic downturns and the eventual shifting of trade routes.
Abandoned for centuries, the city is now a major archaeological site, renowned for its well-preserved ruins and the insights it provides into ancient urban life in Anatolia.

Doctors in Norway misdiagnosed Thomas Kraut, 59, as simply overweight for 12 years, prescribing him Ozempic and sending him to weight loss courses, only to discover a 60-pound malignant tumor growing in his belly. The tumor, which had been causing his stomach to expand, was finally identified before a gastric sleeve surgery, leading to a 10-hour operation to remove it. Despite the surgery, Kraut still faces cancerous tissue that remains in his body, requiring ongoing treatment.
