Greetings, Effurrybuddies!
It is I, the Mighty Shimshon (Shimshi for short), Furrst of My Name, a.k.a The Little Purrince, a.k.a. The Baby Mancat, Master of the Queen's Mischiefs and Captain-of-the-Guard, here to lead My Fellow J-Cats on this weekend's blog 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 Deliciously and Predictably Unpredictable Kitties Blue and their HuMom, Janet.
I was just telling Mummy this meowning that a Noble Mancat such as Myself deserves to have My Own Coat-of-Arms. She promised to think about it and remarked that maybe each of Us should have a Coat-of-Arms, as well as a Royal Standard. I suppose I will have to remind her effurry now and then, but in the meantime, here is an "ordinary" selfie (not that there is anything "ordinary" about Me, Mummy says).
Huh! I think She is just trying to butter Me up so as to make Me forget her Cruelty in putting Me on a D-I-E-T!!!
And as if that wasn't bad enough, she keeps coming after Me with that Furminator thing! Oh, the trials We kitties have to endure!
Oh, I have just noticed something! Look at the coffee table in the background. Can you see something dangling down right behind my left ear? That is Trixie photo-bombing MY selfie with her floofy tail!!! Such impurrtinence!
I hope it is less noticeable in Our Artifications, all created with LunaPic.
Furrst of all, here is a beautifully restrained pawtrait, with minimal embellishment using the Illusion effect at 30%, overlaid with Dark at 15%:
Next, an exuberantly colourful celebration of Me, using the Flash Gordon filter at 47%:
And finally, a bright and sunny Piece of Art, using Gorky at 54% with an overlay of Crayon, at 13%:
And here are the blog hop badges:
Now, I have an impawtant announcement to make.
We shall not be here for the next couple of weeks, because Mummy is going away on vacation. Her Our Cleaning Lady Ms. M. will be coming to look after Us, but She doesn't have the Passwords to the Computer Thingy or the Blog, and We can't type with Our Paws, so We will be back in three weeks time - same Cat Time, same Cat Channel.
Till then - be well. Be safe. We love you all.

Prince Shimshi we think your original photo with you staring right into the camera is most handsome. And we like the second artwork that your mummy did. Queen Trixie just knows how to squeeze in a little bit now and then doesn't she. I hope you're able to stick to your diet while you're mum is off enjoying a vacation. We still wonder how a household with more than one kitty can keep the Kitty food separated. Don't get too lonely without her and we'll see you in a few weeks.
She feeds Us in separate rooms.
That is a totally wonderful selfie and such beautiful art too. You kitties be safe, it's getting scary over there again.
Yes, it is. The airport was closed for a few hours this morning because of a missile attack. No damage though (as far as We know).
Believe me, the Country is in my prayers. I include both mine and yours for certain in those prayers. XXOO
Fun artwork! Stay safe.
That's a great pose and we love the art. The last one is our fave.
No damage to the airport, that is.
PARTEEE TIME AT J CATZ HOUZ !!!!! :) ♥♥
lookin most hansum dood.....hope mummy haza pawsum awsum total lee grate soooper kewl time on her vacationz and safe travelz :) ♥♥♥
Shimshi, that's an especially good selfie, and I'm actually partial to your original one! Though if I were choosing art, the first would be my favourite. 😺
I hope your mum has a wonderful, safe vacation! Take care and keep well.
Wow, Shimshi, what a 😎 cool picture of you. While I did find Trixie's tail, I had to really look for it after you told us! Love all the art effects here, and the original! Y'all stay safe!
These are all most delightful, Shimshi, and I do hope your mother considers the coat of arms. Meanwhile, I will pray she has a lovely vacation and as always, I am praying for the peace of Jerusalem.
Maybe the cleaning lady won't know you are on a diet. You don't need one. You are perfect Shimshi. I hope your mum has fun and stays safe. XO
That is a lovely selfie and art. I hope your mum has a good vacation.
Shimshi, you’re looking very handsome there! I hope your mum has a good time. And that the cleaning lady sneaks you a few treats. ~Murphy
I love the top filter best of all it's rather fine. Good one Shimshi.
PS Tell Mum to have a good holiday and we expect a photo or two on her return.
Looking good! Hope your mom has a wonderful vacation.
We think we like the Flash Gordon effect best, Shimshi, and that superhero could be you. As for diets and brushing, we just say pfffftttt.

Shimshi, you are so furry handsome. Even if Trixie photobombed you with her tail. We hope Mum has a good vacation. We're purring and praying for you all, as always. XO
You look great and I like the filters. I hope your mum has a very nice vacation.
Shimshi, you are looking incredibly handsome, and we definitely do not think you need to be on a diet. Some of us love the fuminator (Lisbeth and Cooper Murphy). Mom has to wait until Sawyer is recovering from a seizure to do him. Your mom is lucky to have a nice long vacation. Hope your housekeeper spoils you as much as ours spoils us. We love all the art, but the first is our favorite. Thanks for hopping with us today.

Excellent selfie and artworks. You need really good eyes to see Trixie's tail in your selfie.
Shimshi you are so lovely! There is indeed nothing ordinary about you! Hope you mom has a great holiday!!
Shimshi you actually don't need that Coat of Arms!
You look quite regal already.
Hugs and prayers,
Mariette + Kitties
Oh my furriend- even with the floofy photo bombing, your pix are a joy. We're having a hard time deciding which version we like best.
Wow, it sure has been a while that we were here visiting...
You are very handsome, Shimshi, and you are an expert in making wonderful selfies!
You look so cute and wise with your stretched paws, Shimsi and your artworks are very beautiful too, we especially loved the first artwork😻We hope you have a wonderful vacation. We were relieved that you are on vacation as we haven't seen you at Athena for a few weeks, so we were a little worried about you🙏I know, I know...sorry that we're always late. It's hard to catch up on all the bloggies. But know that we're always thinking of you🙏Double Pawkisses for a Happy and Peaceful week ahead🐾😽💞
