Hallo again, Effurrybuddies!
Yes, I'm back - the Mighty Shimshon (Shimshi for short), aka The Little Purrince, Furrst of My Name, The Baby Mancat, Master of the Queen's Mischiefs and Captain-of-the-Guard!
Furrst of all, Mummy wishes to apawlogise for the fact that She hasn't yet written in her own bloggie about her Caterwauling Club's concert the week before last. She was waiting for her sister to send her some video-clips from the concert, to make it more interesting for you. These have now arrived and She hopes to be able to do the write-up later on in the week - maybe even tomorrow.
It's still furry, furry hot! We did have a slightly cooler day yesterday ("only" 30 degrees C!) but now, the tempurratures are creeping up again and it's supposed to reach 36 degrees C towards Furriday!
Anyway, all that can't be helped and We have more impawtant matters to deal with, such as choosing which of the many, many, simply spiffing pawtraits of Me are most worthy of repurresenting the J-Cats in this weekend's blog hops - the Caturday Art blog hop, hosted by the always 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!
Once again, We picked out three, which Mummy helped Me to artify, using the huge selection of filters available from LunaPic.
Furrst of all (since We have already mentioned the heat), here is one of Me trying to keep cool by lying on the floor-tiles. They look like stone, don't they - but they are really ceramic tiles! Still, they're much cooler than lying on a carpet would be.
We obtained a furry nice artsy-fartsy effect for this one, using a combination of Daisies (43%) and Dark (16%):
Sometimes, when Mummy is too absorbed in whateffur She is watching on the Big Flat Screen, I have to do something to gain her attention - like sit on her Feet. But this time, Caspurr got there before Me and I had to make do with her Sandals. I looked so cute that She immediately sat up and reached for her Flashy Box phone - and this is the result:
When it came to artifying it, Mummy was just thinking about having a Coffee Break (as She often does) and that's how We came to be using the Coffee filter (no pun intended) at 65%, with a gentle overlay of Floating at 27%.
Finally, here is a close-up of Me:
The artification for this one uses the Fairy effect at 57%, washed over with Ceremony (28%).
I think - in fact, I am almost sure - that this is My Purrsonal Favourite. What do you think?
And here are the blog hop badges:
I tried to explain to her - really I did - that I only look
I am at my wits' end, Kitties! What am I to do?
While I await your advice on this Most Purressing Matter, I and My Fellow J-Cats will get started on the Blog Hops.
Till then, be well. Be safe. We love you all.

Great Selfie and artwork. We don't think you need the dreaded "D" since you look purrfect to us.
You look great and the art is lovely as always!
All adorable pictures of you, Shimshi! We don't have a favorite, though that last one, your little paw, just really gets me! Art effects are all fabulous! It's so hot here too, yikes.
Shimsi, you look purrfect to us and all your artwork is just wonderful😺 We only get two meals a day and dry food, so we're never with an empty tummy, so it isn't to bad after all😺😺 Double Pawkisses for a Happy Sunday to all of you🐾😽💞 Ps tell your mommy that both your comments are coming through.

I adore your close-up! So cute!

Your selfies and art are lovely. I like the last one the best too.
Sir Shimshi, I luv a portly lookin' man cat. I have a rotund tummy too. Yer artz are furtastic and it is good yer mummy knows how to use her thumbs fur makin' such great pictures. Don't let her starve you.
I am almost a teenager, I'll be 13 this late Fall. So I really have given up the high jumpin'. Lynn never evfur leaves me out alone without the eyes in the back of her head lookin' if not just the front. Precious
C30 sounds about the coolest you are getting Yikes!!!!
I LOVE the daisy effect, it has an almost 3-D effect doesn't it!!
Your "playing with shoes" selfie is a delight, but I agree the third one, of your very handsome face up close, is the best today.
Maybe if you ask to have exercise, in the form of chasing cat toys with your Mummy such as kitty teasers or the like, you might not have to have much smaller meals. it's worth a try.
Beautiful photos & art! Mudpie has the same problem with excess..fur...*ahem*
Shimshi, you look handsome to us. Maybe it IS just extra fur!
Our favorite was the same as you -- the third photo and artwork.
Hugs!
I sure hope that awful heat abates somewhat for you all.
I loved how you are hugging htos slippers!! All the art is great!
