Trixie at Leisure: Caturday Art and Sunday Selfies

Greetings, Effurrybody!

Well, here We are again, all raring to go 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 the Deliciously and Predictably Unpredictable Kitties Blue and their HuMom, Janet! I, Queen Trixie, Furrst of My Name,  Empurress of Jerusalem, Israel and the Entire Middle East, Queen of Hearts, the Panfur Princess, Guardian of the Boudoir and Alpha Kitty Extraordinaire, have the honour of leading my fellow J-Cats this week - not, however, before updating you on Our News.

November is when it all starts here - new lecture courses, new field trip courses, the o-purra and concert seasons (in which Mummy is involved both actively and passively) and so on. Mummy was supposed to go on one of her field trips tomorrow, in the Negev, but She has a hurty knee and has to forgo it this time. There is no way she can even contemplate a10 km hike in such a condition. The furry thought makes her wince in pain.  No, She must rest as much as pawssible, so as to be well enough to take part in the furrst purrformance of Die Fledermaus later this week. 

Mummy said to tell you that She has now posted the second chapter of her adventures in Greece on her own bloggie, in case you missed that.

And now, dear furriends, let Us get down to business. We have no fewer than THREE new selfies for your Delectation today, all of which were artified and framed with LunaPic.

Furrst of all, here I am looking at things from a New Purrspective i.e. upside down. I do this quite a lot. I find it enables Me to see the World, which has been a furry Topsy-Turvy place of late, more clearly:

The World has not only been Topsy-Turvy, it has been quite Dark for a long time and We are not sure yet if We can see a Light at the End of the Tunnel, or whether that Tunnel is being blocked by the Terrorists who are hiding out there - which explains why We used the Dark filter for the artification, at 62%:

In this next picture, I am still in My Contemplative Pawsition, but this time, you can just catch a glimpse of My Raspy Little Pink Tongue:

The artsy-fartsy version combines the Pen effect at 29%, with the Scream filter at 51%:

  

 

Finally, here I am stretched out on Mummy's My  the Bed, waiting furry patiently for Mummy to give Me Tummy Rubs:

For the artification here, We used K2 at 100%:

I am not really satisfied with any one of these. I do not think they do Me justice at all! What do you think?

Now, before We fur-get, here are the blog hop badges:

        

And now, Dear Furriends, it is Time to cut the Cackle and get on with the Business, as Grandpaw used to say. In other words, time to get Hopping. We'll be back here, COD-willing, next week - same Cat Time, same Cat Channel. Till then, be Well. Be Safe. We Love you all!
