Caturday Art and Sunday Guest Selfie With Uncle Messi

Hallo again, Effurrybuddies!


This week, We have a furry special guest - Our Woofie Uncle, Messi. 

We have featured Uncle Messi several times before, as you will no doubt remember. His Humans just happen to be Our Grandpaw and Step-Grandma, which is how We happen to have an Uncle who is a Woofie (mol)!

We think Messi is furry handsome. 
Well, naturally, he would be - he is Our Uncle, after all!!!
Mummy thinks he must have some feline DNA, judging by the way he wants to go out into the patio-garden, then in again, then out again, then in again, then out again, then in - effurry few seconds (mol).




Messi is Our Guest Repurresentative in this weekend's bloggie hops - the Caturday Art Blog Hop, hosted by the Wise and Beautiful Athena and her HuMum, Marie, and the Sunday Selfies Blog Hop, hosted by the oh-so deliciously Unpredictable Kitties Blue and their HuMom, Janet.


Here are the blog hop badges:




            









This week's art was created using LunaPic's Grey filter at 65%, overlaid with Quirky (which We don't believe We have used before) at 70%.





The Israel Museum is currently displaying the rough sketches for this pawtrait, which will eventually be framed and loaned to the National Gallery in London, before setting out on a world tour of the world's greatest art galleries.




Kitties, before We set out on this week's blog hops, We want to ask you to put your paws together and purray for all the furries and other anipals caught up in the fighting in the Ukraine. It is true that many of them have been saved by their Humans, who, when able to take only a few of their Most Precious Possessions with them, left effurrything else so as to leave room for their beloved pets. But many others have been abandoned. We have heard of people staying behind and refusing to run away, so as to look after kitties and woofies in shelters.  And We have also heard that many countries opening their borders to the refugees have waived the requirement for pet passports and other veterinary documentation. That is something, at least - but it is all so furry sad, for the furries and for the Humans alike... 

It almost makes one forget the Evil Mutant Ninja Coronavirus, doesn't it? And, indeed, the many countries now welcoming the Ukrainian refugees are, thankfully, not demanding proof of vaccination! 

However, those of Us living in more peaceful zones need to make sure that Our Humans continue to exercise Due Caution.

Be well. Be safe. We love you all.

Uncle Messi is very handsome, and the art is lovely. It is tragic for the people and pets in the Ukraine. My thoughts are with them.

Messi reminds us of MJF our angel pup...

We too are praying for this senseless affair to end, and that peace will return. And those poor innocent peeps and their furry ones will suffer no longer.
