Trixie's Easter Bonnet: Caturday Art and Sunday Selfies

Hallo there, Effurrybody!

Queen Trixie here, Furrst of My Name, Empurress of Jerusalem, Israel and the Entire Middle East, Queen of Hearts, Guardian of the Boudoir, Alpha Kitty Extraordinaire, repurresenting the 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 those adorable, Predictably Unpredictable Kitties Blue and their HuMom, Janet.

We are posting a bit late today, because Mummy only got back just over an hour ago from Tel Aviv, where She spent the day at the beach with Uncle D. and Auntie N. 
Since Mummy returned from Tel Aviv with a splitting headache, We will postpone most of Our Visiting till tomorrow. 


Furrst of all, here is My Selfie.















You are purrobably thinking I look a little grumpy in this picture - and you would be right! I had good reason to be grumpy!
Mummy stuck this - Creation - on my head and told me I would be the Star of the Easter Parade, whatever that might be! I did my furry best to shake it off, but She managed to get quite a few shots of Me, before I succeeded!

After waltzing around for a while singing about how She would write a sonnet about my Easter Bonnet (from which, thankfully, I dissuaded her!), she decided to artify the photo with a couple of filters from LunaPic. Furrst of all, in honour of Spring, Flowers at 55%:















I don't know - for some reason, I think it makes Me look more like a woofie than a kitty!

So then We tried Beauty, at 60%:















Finally, We moved over to PhotoFunia, and used the original, unembellished Me in their Spring Memories frame, with daffodils:















I'm  not really satisfied with any of the pictures this week. But what do you think? Let Us know in the comments below.

In other news - Uncle D. is now staying with Us, so We are, once again, banned from the Kitty Guest Room. And as if that wasn't bad enough, Mummy FORGOT to bring home a kitty bag from the Seder night meal!

On Tuesday, We will celebrate Caspurr's Gotcha Day. We would have liked to do so with a picnic in the Enchanted Forest, but Tuesday is expected to be furry rainy, pawsibly even stormy, so We will postpone that and combine the celebration with Shimshi's 9th Birthday pawty next week. Meanwhile, today We "enjoyed" a sharav and tempurratures of 32 degrees Celsius. At any rate, We still haven't recovered from the Exhaustion of having to snoopervise Mummy's Pessach cleaning last week!

Now, here are the blog hop badges:


        






That's all for now. See you again next week. 

Be well. Be safe. We love you all.

You look very pretty in your Easter bonnet.

Dear Trixie as a girl kitty I have to admit having to wear an Easter bonnet or a summer Bonnet or anything on top of my head would be no fun. However you look quite lovely and we like the very last picture when your picture is inside of the picture. And your mom should never have forgotten to give you a kitty bag of extra treats when she was having such a delicious Passover meal. Glad she got to go to the beach and that your uncle is still there for a visit. Precious

Kea said...

You look fetching in your bonnet, though none of my angels would have been happy to wear one either. 😁
I actually like the first, flower, the best, for the vibrant colours.

I hope you have a wonderful visit with your Uncle D.!

Katie Isabella said...

Queen Trixie! You look devastatingly beautiful in your bonnet! Mum did a super job creating that for you..and you are totally dazzling. I love all the pictures with maybe the first one being my fave.

Erin the Cat Princess said...

Definitely the last is best. The daffodils help brighten the scene too.
Hopefully the cleaning things humans get will stop pretty soon and normal service will resume. I for one am stock piling extra floof to spread around the house to get Mrs H back to normal summer routine. 🙂

Linda said...

Your comments about the Easter bonnet made me laugh. Well, there are some pretty strange Easter customs, like bunnies that have eggs.

CCL Wendy said...

Queen Trixie, we think your Easter bonnet is divine! You sure take a fantastic Selfie, and we were happy to see it framed at the end.

Welcome back to your Mom and Uncle D. What does that D stand for anyway?

My condolences about the kitty bag being forgotten. So sad!

Mrs H is asking if you have now collected the book you won and we sent? We have had a report back that they tried to deliver 30/3/23 and left a card.

We received no card. Do you have a tracking number so we can contact the Post Office?
