Indiana Bones is my favorite cat, bar none.

I used to live in Ft. Wayne Indiana, and the local university mascot was the mastodons, and there were loads of mastodon sculptures around town due to all the mastodon fossils foind in the area.

What i am saying is that there are serious layers to this post that i don't think OP is even aware of

I would like to be informed of the serious layers to the post cuz I’m always unawares of them

The mastodon is the state fossil for Indiana, so posting about about a museum cat named "Indiana Bones" on Mastodon, a site named after the state fossil of Indiana is extra deep.
