So glad that Bonnie has made it home. You’re amazing for doing what you do, and it’s so lovely that the vet covered the costs. Wishing you and Bonnie every good wish!
I couldn’t have said this any better. What you did and are doing is amazing, and these little ones had love and warmth and care from you. Who can ask for more than that?
Exactly this, and the other benefit of hashtags (at least on some apps for Mastodon) is that you can mute them. So, if you’re following someone whose posts you enjoy, except their posts about #rugby, you can mute those posts and not see any of them. I find it a really great way to keep my feed as only those things I’d prefer to see.
I agree it’s definitely worth following hashtags liberally for things you’re interested in. Your feed should really open up with that.
But it’s also worth doing a longish #introduction post, adding hashtags of things you like and pinning that to your profile. You might already have done that but you can always do a fresh one. People will also boost introduction posts so that might get your profile out there more.
So sorry for your loss. It sounds as though you both did so much that was good for one another.
