Caspurr's Basket Boat: Caturday Art and Sunday Selfies

Hallo there, Effurryone!

I, the Courageous Sir Caspurr the Caspicatious, Furrst of My Name, the Snuggle Bug, Commander-in-Chief of the Impurrial Forces, King of the Tigger-Tabbies, am back again, to lead my fursibs as We join this weekend's blog hops - the Caturday Art blog hop. hosted by the Wise and Divinely Beautiful Athena and her HuMum, Marie, and the Sunday Selfies blog hop, hosted by those Brilliantly Unpredictable Kitties Blue and their HuMom, Janet.

Mummy would have liked Me to take My Selfie stretched out on the bed or the sofa, displaying My Tummy, as I so often do, but I didn't feel like getting up out of the Mewspaper Basket, because I knew that if I did so, Shimshi wouldn't lose a second in stealing My Place, just as he has already stolen My Favourite After-Breakfast Napping Spot in the laundry basket!

Now, tell Us what you think of the artsy-fartsy version, which We did in several stages. Furrst of all, We used LunaPic's Waves art effect, set at 60%. On top of that, we added an overlay of Clown, at 40%, which gave the picture a nice, blue-washed look, as if My Basket was actually a boat, floating on the waves.

We were so pleased with the Final Result that it came as no surprise when We were contacted by PhotoFunia, on behalf of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, with a request to hang this masterpiece there for the rest of the summer. Naturally, We graciously consented.

We also made a puzzle for you.

We haven't had time to try it ourselves yet, as We've had a furry busy week, helping Mummy as She and the rest of the Biped Family (plus Our Woofie Uncle, Messi) celebrated Grandpaw's 95th birthday last Wednesday, and again on Friday, with a Big Family Supper in the Garden.

Imagine that! 95 years old! Why, in Cat years, that's - that's - I can't figure that out! I don't have enough Paws and Claws! I need a PawCat calculator!

Well, I guess it's time to start on the blog hops now. Furrst of all, here are the blog hop badges:

         

We will leave you with a reminder to make sure that your Humans continue to take all Necessary Precautions to avoid the Evil Mutant Ninja Coronavirus. The Transmission Rate here in Israel is now down to 0.89 (although several people from Mummy's Caterwauling Club are sick with it at present. Luckily, the Choir is now on vacation till September) - but We heard that there are other countries where it is still on the Rampage.

Be Well. Be Safe. We love you all.
