Greetings Fabulous Felines and Hoomans of Hivelandia and surrounding communities!

I hope everyone has had a fabulous Thanksgiving — at least if you're here in the USA and celebrating such things — or just are having a generally wonderful weekend!

## *Caturday, Once More!*

Well, you Hoomans have been all about celebrating your *"Thanksgiving,"* but today — being Saturday — we celebrate all *cats* because it is *Caturday!*

Of course, my Hoomans have been really good to us cats this weekend, with extra treats from the Thanksgiving table, starting already on Thursday!

*Nothing quite as good as sunshine on my belly!*

What I particularly like about this weekend is that the Hoomans have largely just been *"lounging about"* and taking it relatively easy.

We did have guests on Thursday, so the house was rather loud for a few hours, but it was OK... and I even came up from my *"lair"* downstairs to say hello to the guests!

*I do enjoy napping on the Dad-Hooman's paperwork!*

Everyone had already left the house by about 5:30pm, so it became nice and quiet again, and we mostly ate more good food, and even watched some TV. I like TV time because I can generally find a nice warm lap to sleep in!

At the moment, the Mom-Hooman has been getting busy again because she is doing a *"live event"* with her online **[Poshmark Store](https://poshmark.com/closet/nashmaste)** tomorrow afternoon! I tried to help... but she didn't seem all that interested!

*Watching the proceedings from the guest bed...*

## *Crypto Nervousness... Again?*

Sometimes it seems like the *"theme"* for the Cryptosphere for 2023 might be written as *"and then something went wrong..."*

We seemed to be going along with some degree of stability... and then *"the Binance Thing"* happened, and the usual uncertainty arose again.

*Smudge, in the sun...*

One of the things I *don't* really like about these gyrations is that we get bad news about something crypto related... and the *"major"* coins dip, and then recover... but tokens like Hive dip *more* and then settle in at a lower level it takes *weeks* and even *months* to move past.

Lately, I've been revisiting my Hive goals, now that we only have a month left of this year... and looks like I'm going to fall a bit short, this year. Better luck next year, I guess?

*Having a well-deserved snack!*

## *Looking Ahead to 2024*

So, soon it will be time to set some goals, hopes and ambitions for 2024!

Aside from just the usual *"Hive Power goals,"* I am also pretty determined to spend more time with **[The Hive Cats Community](https://peakd.com/c/hive-189742/created)** which we started not long after the Hive fork. It takes a lot of time and effort to build a community, but I think it's worth it... and we're closing in on 300 subscribers!

And that's about it for this week's Caturday update! I hope you have had a wonderful Caturday of your own, and I wish for you a great and relaxing Sunday!

## *Love Cats? Get Involved in Hive's Cat Communties!*

If you're a cat lover and often/sometimes post pictures or other content that includes your feline friends, why not become an active part of Hive's growing Cat Communities?

These are some of the more active Cat Communities — why not join them ALL? Many of the allow you to share your cat posts, even if you started at a different community!

**[HiveCats](https://peakd.com/c/hive-189742/created)** by **@curatorcat** is a central *"gathering place"* for cat content on Hive; promoting the use of the **#hivecats** tag for feline content!

**[Cat Snaps](https://peakd.com/c/hive-141812/created)** by **@manorvillemike** is a place to post pictures of your cats when you don't have a whole lot to say beyond just sharing your cute photos!

**[Caturday](https://peakd.com/c/hive-187635/created)** by **@saboin** is a community where we get to celebrate posts relating to Saturday — aka *"Caturday"* — our own special day!

**[Cat Photos](https://peakd.com/c/hive-156144/created)** by **@andrarchy** is a *"mixed use"* cat content community; posts can be just photos *or* longer, as long as the subject is CATS!

**[Cats](https://peakd.com/c/hive-133343/created)** by **@captainklaus** (and Sissi!) is another *"general"* cat content community.

There *are* a number of other feline communities listed on Hive, but I am not sharing them for now as they have *not* had any activity (by their Admins OR users) since the Steem/Hive fork. Updates as they become available!
