TALI & TOE BEANS X 4

Caturday Art

Tali and her toe beans (four times) are here today for art. She was napping in my lap when I snapped the photo.

 

An art collage of a white and calico kitten napping and showing off her toe beans for Caturday Art.

 

After creating the art for the photo with the “💧🎨 Ink” effect from Painnt, I put the photo in piZap and tried out some filters from that app. I liked each of them and couldn’t pick just one, so I put all four into a collage. Clockwise starting from the left upper corner the effects are: Galaxy at 90 percent, Metallic at 54 percent, Scrap Z at 72 percent and Parchment at 85 percent.

Tali will be participating in the Caturday Art blog hop hosted by Athena Cat Goddess Wise Kitty. You can join her there by clicking on Athena’s badge.

 

Tali has a jigsaw for all of you who enjoy puzzles as much as I do.

Friendly Fill-Ins

I didn’t complete the fill-ins yesterday, as I posted a review for the Rywell Cooling Mat. If you missed it, I think you might want to check it out. It really is a great product. The link is at the bottom of this post.

Anyhoo …

The Friendly Fill-Ins blog hop is hosted each Friday by Ellen (15 And Meowing) and Lorianne (Four-Legged Furballs). They publish the fill-in sentences on their blogs each Thursday. To participate in the hop, click on the badge at the left.

I was fortunate to get some help from both Stinky and Calista Jo this week. We all used teal italics for our completions. Any explanatory information is in parentheses.

1. Stinky: My plans for August include planning and enjoying Adventures with Periwinkle.

2. I am a type INFJ personality. (This is one of and the most rare of the 16 Myers-Briggs personality types. The acronym stands for Introversion, Intuition, Feeling and Judging. A person who is an INFJ is often called the “Advocate” or “Counselor,” and is known for being deeply empathetic, idealistic and quiet.)

3. If cat litter were a currency, (Dad Tom and) I would be rich. (I had to add Dad Tom to this fill-in, as he is the official scooper at our house. We have nine litter boxes.)

4. Calista Jo: I can do a good impersonation of a banshee.

Sunday Selfies Again Tomorrow

That’s right, we will be right here to meet you for our Sunday Selfies blog hop. I have a choice of hosts to select from, which is totally unusual. As I haven’t decided which of the Kitties Blue to select, you definitely will need to join us. And when you are here, we really hope you will link up a selfie and hop.

Thanks for visiting us today. We always are grateful when you stop in.

Have a terrific Caturday.
