Sunday (Birthday) Selfies

Greetings, Effurrybody!

It is I, Queen Trixie, Empurress of Jerusalem, Israel and the Entire Middle East.
We are taking a break from touring with Moo (see last three posts) to make Our Furrst Attempt at taking part in a Blog Hop. We have neffur done this before, and Our Human will furry likely make a Mess of it, but We are highly meowtivated to make the attempt.

We are going to attempt to join the Sunday Selfies blog hop hosted by The Cat on My Head.


We have neffur posted a Sunday Selfie before - but since today is My Birthday, there could not be a More Suitable Occasion. 

So, fursst of all, here is the Birthday Portrait.










Oops! No. Purrhaps one where you can actually see my face would be prefurrable (mol).







Yes, that's much better, isn't it?



Now, it says We are supposed to display their badge.






Okay. We think Mummy has got it right so far (paws crossed).  We shall see, later on, if She managed also to do the second part of the link.

Now, for the second part of this blog.


As I mentioned earlier, today is My Birthday. I am six years old today. However, you probably all know that this coming Friday, August 17th, is Black Cat Appreciation Day, and that I, too, am a Black Panfur kitty. We think it is furry, furry impawtant to purrmote the magnificence of Black Cats, who are often the furry last to be considered for adoption. We can't imagine why, although We have heard that in the United States, black cats are considered to be omens of Bad Luck.  Such foolishness! In England, where Mummy was born, it's the other way around. Black kitties are believed to bring GOOD LUCK. And not only in England, but throughout Europe and Asia! But We want ALL black cats, throughout the Whole World to be recognised as the Bringers of Good Fortune which We are, so Black Cat Appreciation Day is furry, furry impawtant. Therefore, instead of celebrating My Birthday today, We are going to have a joint celebration of those two miaowmentous occasions on Friday afternoon at 6:30 pm Israel time (just in time for the start of Shabbat, actually) up at our favourite picnic/barbecue/pawty location, in the Enchanted Forest overlooking the Old City of Jerusalem. You are all invited, of course - and Moo will be there too. 

So We are going to wrap this up for now. Later in the week, We shall be posting about some more of the places We have been taking Moo. And We shall also be helping Mummy post about her vacation last week.




And finally, here is the blog hop list.  So goodbye for now, or as We say in Hebrew - Lehitra'ot.

Hello Queen Trixie, Empurress of Jerusalem, Israel and the Entire Middle East! Boy that is a lot to say, MOL
You did really really well for your first hop and selfie. Have to say it's great to welcome another international cat, and royalty too, to the throng.
Love your selfie for the week, and birthday pose too. Looks like you have a favourite place to be and I guess a great view too.... maybe a few mice to look at also?
Anyways, we wish you a happy birthday and will add you to our list of hops to visit, and we will definitely try to get to your party up at the Enchanted Forest!

Happy birthday, Trixie! We love your selfie. :)

We agree with you that black cats are good luck! We know they are for us (of course, we may be a little biased since we have two lovely housepanfurs, Gracie and Ava).

Have fun with Moo, and we'll do our best to stop by for your birthday and black cat Shabbat celebration.

Lehitra'ot!

Dearest Queen and Empress Trixie...I regret that mom will be taking my favorite brother back to his home today at party time here. I believe 1830 Israel time is 1130 here. If so, mommy will be on the road. IF that happens, know I will truly and in actuality be thinking of you and the party and I will make mom help us get straight over there as soon as she returns. Maybe Caspurr will save me a morsel? Meanwhile, again, happiest birthday to you beautiful Empress Trixie. All my love and Mommy's too.
