Sinnoh had it to.
Only in Platinum tho.

Martha Wells
Seanan McGuire
VIvian Shaw
Zen Cho
Tamora Pierce
Kate Elliott
Michelle Sagara
Julie Czerneda
Mary Robinette Kowal
Becky Chambers

Martha Wells, Marie Robinette Kowal, and Julie Czerneda write both fantasy and science fiction. Becky Chambers is (I believe) just science fiction. The rest are fantasy.

Seconding Diane Duane, especially the Young Wizards series (I recommend getting the ebooks if you can (I almost never do this), because they've been revised and A Wizard Alone in particular badly needed it).

ADORABLE BABIESSSSS AWWWWW D: so tempted to get a kitten, but I have a much older cat and I don't want to depress him/stress him out. I want him to stay with me as long as he can. (he's almost 14 yrs old soon)

I also want to get a cat. Unfortunately, I am allergic (which honestly wouldn't even stop me), and I have two rabbits. I don't want to risk them not getting along. I love my rabbits. <3

I started listening to The Magicians on audiobook, and does the book always describe its female characters by their attractiveness to the protag, or is it worth continuing?

Dog is refusing to eat after the move, hopefully he'll get his shit together soon. I'm sure he's eating /something/ but definitely not enough to be noticeable. The cat, on the other hand, is a fatass and won't stop eating.

Yeah, he might be too old to handle getting a new kitten into the home :t-hugs:

But you can watch kittens instead if you want. Just search for "Kitten Academy" on youtube. They're cat fosters working with a shelter, and have a 24/7 livestream showing the kittens and their mom. They have their own room in the foster couple's home. I should mention that momcat is recovering from a bad cold but she's getting the best care and is improving every day <3

Yess!
Occasionally the camera set up will show other rooms in the house with the 'Faculty' aka the cats that the fosters own, the permanent residents (who are kept separate from the cats being fostered). And at night they switch on the night vision on the cameras to keep it 24/7.

Those are my favs, lol. I also have live feeds for pandas, birds of prey, underwater creatures, african and american wildlife. Being disabled means I have a LOT of time on my hands sometimes, so I like watching things I can't see in person any more.
I am in the process of moving house, so I will not be around much for the foreseeable future.
