What’s better than a post about cats? That there’s a 5Pointz graffiti cat? That Untapped Cities writer Rachel Fawn Alban adopted him? And that he now has his own Instagram, @graffiticatbaxterAll of the above.

Rachel has mixed in latergrams of Baxter, which she’s dubbed #Baxtergrams, at 5Pointz with images of him happily in his new home.
