Hallo again, Effurrybuddies!
The Mighty Shimshon here, a.k.a. the Little Purrince, Furrst of My Name, Master of the Queen's Mischiefs and Captain of the Guard.
But you can call me Shimshi.
Furrst of all, on behalf of the J-Cats and Our Mummy, Lady Shimona, let Me wish you all Shavua Tov (a Good Week).
It is a lovely, sunny (but cold) day - one of many - and, in fact, Fursday is Tu b'Shvat, the New Year for Trees, which, although it falls deep in the winter, is seen by many as a herald of Spring. It is usually celebrated here in Israel by the planting of many trees. Schools often have special tree-planting ceremonies. That will not be pawsible this year, because of the Evil Coronavirus - but two and a half million Israelis have already been vaccinated, so maybe next year...
Anyway, to get back to matters in paw - this week, it is My Turn to repurresent the J-Cats in the Caturday Art blog hop, hosted by the Wise and Beautiful Athena and her HuMum, Marie, and in the Sunday Selfies blog hop, hosted by the Predictably Unpredictable Kitties Blue and their HuMom, Janet.
This is my Sunday Selfie, in which I am basking in one of the many sunpuddles with which We have been blessed this past Week (and are still enjoying).
This Pawtrait was artified, with the help of Mummy's Opposable Thumbs, using Art Effects from LunaPic. I wasn't sure whether I prefurred the BlueSwirl Effect, at 65%:
or the Grey Art Effect, at 70%:
So, in the end, We decided not to decide (mol) and to hang them all in one of the PhotoFunia Art Galleries:
Tell Us which one YOU like best!
Now, here are the Blog Hop badges:
As usual, before We set out on our blog-hopping tour, We would remind you all that the Evil Virus is not yet vanquished, so We must still make sure that you and your Humans stay safe by getting vaccinated as soon as pawsible, continuing to wear face-masks (such a little thing, but so impawtant), avoiding mass gatherings, Social Distancing - and, most impawtant of all: WASHING YOUR PAWS FURREQUENTLY (something which must be obvious to Cats and their Humans).
That's all for now.

You look fabulous Shimshi and your art is wonderful too! Have a wonderful week and be safe!
Shimshi, you look like you're enjoying your sun puddle. And we love our art. And P.s., our mom always wears a mask and washes her hands, and she got her vaccine! Be well!

Lovely selfie and art. The Grey effect is my favourite.
A very nice Selfie Shimshi and we do hope those vaccines pop the evil virus in the nose, or noses
I am impressed that your country is doing so well with getting the vaccine out. I love all your art so the gallery is perfect. XO

You look gorgeous Shimshi! I'm glad so many have been vaccinated where you are, we're getting there slowly, but it looks like it may move faster in the next month or so. Have a wonderful week.
New Year for Trees sounds like a great idea. More trees needed here in the UK!
Your photos and art are lovely!

*sigh* covid is tiresome and it is disrupting so many things. We can only hope that vaccination continues and we can get back to something more normal soon. Your artworks are both very good and the different styles complement each other.
