Greetings, Fellow Felines!
That is how Possum, Who Went Before, used to open his blog posts. And why are We using it today? Read on, and all will become clear.
Last week, Mummy neglected to mention that the furry next day was the 12th anniversary of Possum's Journey to the Rainbow Bridge. It was furry repurrehensible of Her, but in mitigation, We have to explain that the previous day, She and her Human Family marked the end of the 30 Days of Mourning for her sister and brother-in-law, Auntie Y. and Uncle N. and her head was in something of a whirl. She remembered right after Our post went live, but didn't know how best to fit it into the blog, because, after all, Possum deserves a Post of his own, doesn't he?
So instead, We are honouring Possum by making him Our Repurresentative in 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.
Remember how Possum loved to lie on his back with his legs in the air, asking for tummy rubs?
Well, here is an iconic picture of him, doing just that. Moreover, We gave the picture a lovely seasonal touch with an autumnal frame. That is because Mummy was finally forced to concede that Autumn has arrived, since on Simchat Torah, which was last Thursday, we start praying for rain (no sign of it yet!) and since last night, We put the clocks back. In fact, She also took down the winter bed-linen - the lovely flannel sheets and the duvet - all the better to enjoy that Extra Hour of Sleep (mol).
So here is Possum the Magnificat, in all his Glory!
And in honour of Howloween later this week, We have artified Possum's pawtrait with LunaPic's Dark filter, at 42%, and added a creepy Howloween-themed outer frame:
What next?
Oh, yes! Of course! The blog hop badges! Here they are:
And now, it is time to visit as many of you as We can before Mummy lies down for a rest before Caterwauling Purractice this evening...
See you next week - Same Cat Time, Same Cat Channel.
Till then - be well. Be safe. We love you all.

Possum was a handsome mancat with so much floof! ❤️ He reminds me of angel Chumley, who was the only one of my own cats who would lie like that, belly floof up.
Angel Possum look to be the fluffiest Kitty in the world. I'm sorry we didn't know him when he was with you. But this picture is purrfect. We are glad to see you today because one of our TV show was interrupted one night with news from your country. We worry about all of you.
Awww, what a lovely memorial to your Possum! We are finally seeing a few signs of autumn, too!

Possum was totally adorable and had such skill with those upward dangles! You did it up right just for him. Hugs. Y'all be safe over there.
Mommy remembers you Possum... very well. You look adorable in that seasonal frame. Your calming color fur sets off the bright leaves Autumn wonderfully. You were so handsome and so loved. You are still remembered and loved...and you always will be.
Possum was definitely magnificent ! Thanks for sharing your memories !
I am sad to have never made Possum's acquaintance, he was most handsome and I'm sure I would have enjoyed knowing him as much as I enjoy knowing you.
I am praying for the peace of Jerusalem.
We didn't know Possum, but this was a lovely tribute to him. Mom wants to rub his fluffy tummy.

Possum was a handsome boy. We never forget those we love that have gone before us. XO
What a darling little boy he was!!!
We remember sweet and furry Possum, and it was so special to see him in your remembrance today. We love you, dear friends, and are purring and praying for peace for you and all of Israel.
I love the second framed portrait. Superb!
This is a wonderful photo to remember Possum.
Possum sure was a character! Purrs as you remember him on this sad anniversary.
We think it's awesome that you used Possum for your Halloween pick! He certainly was a cutie-pie and obviously brings back all the good memories. I'd love to give him a tummy snorgle, but I guess I'll have to do it in my mind. Great art piece of the handsum Possum!
