Hallo there, Effurrybody!
Here I am again, Queen Trixie, Furrst of My Name, Empurress of Jerusalem, Israel and the Entire Middle East, Queen of Hearts, Guardian of the Boudoir, Alpha-Kitty Extraordinaire. It is MY Turn to lead My Fellow J-Cats on this weekend's blog hops - the Caturday Art blog hop, hosted by the Divinely Wise and Beautiful Athena and her HuMum, Marie, and the Sunday Selfies blog hop, hosted by the Deliciously and Predictably Unpredictable Kitties Blue and their HuMom, Janet.
We received several new Boxes this past week. Mummy's Cleaning Lady, Ms. M. brings them especially for Us. She understands how impawtant it is for Us to have a Regular Supply, as it takes Us Shimshi barely a heartbeat to rip them to pieces with his sharp, sharp, little claws! He is such a Destructive (not so) little Mancat!
(I say, Sis, that's not fair. Those boxes are expressly designed for Us to give Our claws a workout - unlike the living room sofa which you single-pawedly retextured! - Shimshi)
Not just destructive - but a Telltale to boot! And you should see what he has done to the wooden framework of the Bed!
Anyway, I digress. When Ms. M. brought last week's batch of boxes, I immediately laid claim to one of them:
And, of course, Mummy quickly whipped out her phone and took a picture, to preserve My Beauty in Purr-petuity.
So, this is My Selfie for this week.
We had some difficulty artifying it, because for the past few days, two of Our favourite photo editing sites - PicResize and LunaPic - have been acting up and timing out before We manage to edit Our Pictures. That's why there is only one Artsy-Fartsy LunaPic version of the pawtrait:
Mummy's Caterwauling Club is now in Summer Recess till September, so this evening, instead of leaving Us all alone to go off to Caterwauling Purr-actice, maybe She will finally finish writing up her own bloggie, on which She has been working for several days. She has a couple of Bible archaeology field trips and no fewer than three concerts to write about and She has actually written most of it, but things kept on happening - like a couple of terrorist attacks - even as She was writing. Not to mention all the action on the pawlitical front.
So She begs your indulgence and hopes (but no promises, okay?) to post her own blog either tomorrow or the day after. (Yeah, We know. You've heard that before.)
In the meantime, here is a puzzle to keep you busy.
********
Till next week then.
Be well. Be safe. We love you all.

I used to know a kitty (Robin!!!) who retextured OUR sofa and carpet! That rascal! But she was the family matriarch after all, so no one said much other than a useless and feeble "no".
We love your art this week! And what better portrait of a cat than a cat in a box!
Trixie, you sure look pretty in that box! How nice of Ms. M to bring those for you. And we love how your artwork turned out, too! :)
Your paw-trait is so very lovely ... and purrsonally speaking, we do think any and all boxes are meant for hiding, sleeping, or playing in, not for destruction ... well, not right away at least!
For all your family and friends, may you stay safe during the difficult times in your
homeland, our prayers are said for you.
Purrfect art of a cat in a box!
Queen Trixie, how wonderful the art. We see you have tiny windows in your box too. All the better to keep an eye open fur seeing Shimshi sneak attack on your box. We hope to see the food mum's bloggie one day soon. In the meantime, keep an eye on your kingdom.
Anyone who brings you boxes on a regular basis is a keeper. I love your art, Trixie, it's definitely museum-worthy!
Please stay safe and be well, have a good week.
Your box bringing lady has found the key to you loving her, LOL!!
You sure do look relaxed and happy in your box, Trixie!
guyz...a quik minit two say HI, be well :) bye for now ♥
I love the Landscape effect and the soft colours. They are so pretty (and you look fine on the wall too!!!)
Trixie, you look beautiful and your art is fabulous! Maybe your Mum can sing to you more now. Those field trips sound like fun!
Trixie, you are so lucky to have such a fabulous box!
You can't beat a pawsome box!
What a nice cleaning lady to bring you boxes. Beautiful selfie and art. Thank you for the puzzle. Sending love to you too. XO
I think you look even more regal in a box, Queen Trixie! When it is artified you can really see the claw marks. This only cements my opinion that you are an effective leader because a true royal leaves a mark in hiss-tory. And here you are hanging in a mewseum for pawsterity.
I'm glad your Mom can give her voice a rest for now, and take up Caterwauling again in future. She is one remarkable woman (something like her cat)!
Pee Ess: I will be posting another Meme of Shimshi this coming Friday.
Shimshi will be looking forward to that - but now Trixie and Caspurr are getting a little jealous.
Dear Queen Trixie, yoo look very regal in yoor box palace. Don't let anyone tell yoo yoor decorating style is naughty. Claw marks are haute couture to felines throughout the world.
So cute! Enjoy your box!
A right-sized box is SO impawtant! A littlle to smalll an ya have ta scruntch in. Too big an it isn't protecting you. Too old, an it is boring.
TBT is allus offerring boxes he thinks are right. We like some. But sometimes we just reject another one just ta keep him guessing. MOL!
