Hallo, Effurrybuddies!
Guess whose turn it is this week to lead the J-Cats on the weekend 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 Delightful and Predictably Unpredictable Kitties Blue and their HuMom, Janet!
Yes, you have guessed aright! It is I, the Mighty Shimshon (Shimshi for short), Furrst of My Name, the Little Purrince a.k.a. The Baby Mancat, Master of the Queen's Mischiefs and Captain of the Guard!
We will kick off right away with My Official Pawtrait, which Mummy has adorned with a beautiful summery frame She created with the help of LunaPic:
Of course, Summer doesn't officially start till next week, but We probably won't be posting then, as that is the week of Mummy's opurration, and She has a great deal to do. So, since the weather here in Israel is definitely Summer weather, We will celebrate it right now :-)
All of this week's art is also from from LunaPic, as are the elegant frames.
For starters, We used the bright and cheerful Delaunay effect at 68% - colourful as a summer garden:
Artification no.2 used the more sober tints of Colour Sketch at 85% - quieter and less flashy, but excellent for bringing out detail:
And finally, Bridge Art at full power:
And there you have it - three furry different manifestations of My Magnificent Self (mol). Did I say three? Nay, Four - let Us not forget the Original Me! Do you have a favourite? Do let Us know in the Comments section below.
And here are the blog hop badges:

This Thursday, Uncle D. should be arriving. Yay!
As We mentioned above, Mummy has her surgery next week, so We don't expect to be posting next Sunday, when She is supposed to be spending most of the day at the hospital for something called a "Pre-Op Evaluation". They told her to bring something to drink and some sandwiches, as well as some light reading, as it could take several hours. Her opurration is scheduled for next Thursday and the plan is for her to spend one night at the hospital. If all goes well - and We purray, naturally, that it will - We will be back here in two weeks time, same Cat Time, same Cat Channel.
Till then, be safe. Be well. We love you all!

Shimshi, that is a fabulous picture of you, and all the art versions are each one so unique that we cannot choose a favorite! There are evidently infinite ways to enhance the features of kitties! We send hopes and purrs for your Mummy's surgery and safety always, and for a good visit with Uncle D!
Sending and saying healing mantras for your staff's operation. So good that Uncle is coming to be with you all during this time. Will he be taking over singing duties also?? 😉
Now, as to those intriguing selfie art pieces. Mrs H and I unanimously settle on no.3 as our fav, followed by no.1, then no.2.
May you have a blessed, warm and healthy week. Till 2 weeks time!
ERin & Mrs H
We like all the effects but the first is our fave this week.
Hoping all goes well for your mum's surgery xx
Hello, Shimshi
You are looking magnificent. I love all the cute artsy images.
Sending prayers and good wishes for your Mom's surgery.
Take care, enjoy your day and the new week ahead.
Sir Shimshi your actual photograph shows how handsome you are. But we like all of the artwork too. Wonderful that Uncle D is going to be there soon and very soon. We will be praying next week when the Mum has the long stay for the pre-op. And of course for the surgery. We won't forget.
You nailed the selfie and your art is wonderful! We're all sending purrs and prayers to your Mom and we hope y'all are safe over there.
Best wishes to your mummy! That’s a cute pose. I like the nostalgia look of number three.

All of your Selfie art is fabulous. Purrs and prayers for your Mummy's surgery.
The original is always my favorite, but of the artworks, number 3 would be my choice.
You asked about the first two pictures of my selections today, the first is a decorative bowl, its high polish made me look at it more closely. The second is a rather intricately carved bracket or shelf which hangs on a wall. Some people put small knickknacks on them, but I think the shelf is pretty enough without them.
Your mummy will be in my prayers for quick healing and full recovery.
I am praying for the peace of Jerusalem.
That’s a great selfie, Shimshi! And lovely artwork. We send many purrs and hugs to your mummy that all goes well with her surgery and her recovery is quick.
Beautiful photo and art! Sending lots of purrs to your mummy.
Delaunay looks like dabs of paint. How cool that is. Mum is an artist ;-)
Wonderful selfie and I like all the effects, especially the last one. I am praying that your mum's surgery goes well and that she heals quickly. XO
Great selfie and I like all the art, especially the last one. I am praying for your mum's surgery to go well and for her to heal quickly. XO
We love all of them, handsome Shimshi. We are purring and praying for your Mummy! XO
Shimshi, your selfie is terrific as ever! I like the first two artifications best, can't choose between them!
I'm keeping your Mummy in my thoughts and prayers, that all goes well. ❤️🙏❤️🙏
Shimshi, you and our Henry are matchy matchy!
Bridge Art is our fav this week, and we are purring for your meowmy.
Shimshi, mew are epic and so is your art, truly!!! And we send oodles of healing purrs for your mum, and a massive get well soon! 😻🐾😻🐾😻
Shimshi, we like your photo and all the art, but we think our favorite is the first one. Our mom is sending prayers and we are sending POTP that your mom’s surgery goes well. Thanks for hopping with us! XOCK, angels Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid & Sawyer, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy, Kizmet, Audrey, Raleigh, Gibbs & Tali
Shimshi, I love the original. Can't make a choice between the artifications. Thinking of your mom and her time in the hospital. xx
