Sunday Selfies: Week: #477
Calista Jo has the honor of being the second of the Kitties Blue to share her new portrait as this week’s Sunday Selfie.
She looks innocent and demure but don’t let her expression fool you. Yesterday, she swatted Cooper Murphy, as he dared to walk past her. Later in the morning she gave Lisbeth a tongue-lashing for just occupying the kitchen floor with her. She often hisses and growls at Sawyer when he tries to get on the bed. Lately, she has been sleeping on the living room couch, which has given our nightly bedmates a bit of a reprieve from her bad temper.
Please Hop With Us
Calista Jo and the other Kitties Blue invite you to join our weekly Sunday Selfies blog hop. We know you may be busy entertaining your humans while they are home on the weekend, or purrhaps taking your easy in a sunpuddle, which is why our hop remains open through Thursday. All your friends will be looking for you here, and you do not want to disappoint them. If you know anyone who might enjoy showing off a bit, please invite them to pop over and join us. We always look forward to making new friends.
Saying Good-Bye
Most of you likely know that one of our blogging friends, Pattie Kleinke (TW from Stunning Keisha), passed away on October 6th. I was fortunate to meet Pattie in 2015 at the Blog Paws Conference in Nashville. I searched for a photo, and this is the only one I could find.
That’s Pattie in the foreground with CK’s nemesis HHGutt.
You can light a candle or leave a memory here. A donation to Pattie’s favorite charity can be made by clicking this link: The Lucky Cat Rescue in Weehawken, New Jersey. Or, if you would rather, there is a GoFundMe page on the Cat Blogosphere web-site where you can donate to Lucky Cat. Rest In Peace Pattie.
Thanks for joining us today. Have an easy Sunday.
SOmehow I forgot to comment here on Sunday….CJ, that is a wonderful sweet selfie!
I knew Pattie only a little bit, but I know her presence will be very much missed by all who knew and loved her.
Such a lovely portrait and I the photo border is beautiful.
Pattie will certainly be missed.
Gorgeous selfie! Even though we knew how sick Pattie was, it still doesn’t seem possible. Such a heartbreaking loss.
Callista Jo, you need to remember beauty needs to be more than fur deep.
My heart goes out to all who knew and loved Ms. Kleinke. May she rest in peace.
Such a pretty girl Calista Jo, so sorry to hear of your friends passing xxxx
That’s a beautiful Selfie!
We’re very sad about the passing of TW (ask CK always called her).

That’s a beautiful pawtrait, CJ.
We only knew Pattie as TW, CK’s Mom, but it is, indeed, furry sad. Blogaverse family IS family.
C.J., what’s up with the attitude. Better be careful you don’t get whacked by someone bigger than you (like I think Riley might do to me…). XOXOX Chia
We’re all so sorry that Miss Pattie had to cross the Rainbow bridge. We offer our condolences to her family and many friends.
What a pretty portrait of Calista Jo! We are sad about Pattie as well. The mom met her at BlogPaws too. And she and CK were our Secret Paws a couple of times. Such a sad time for CK and Pops. ~Ernie
I too am saddened deeply by Pattie’s passing. I remember the first call I had from her back when I was down for the count with my broken ar and legs in a terrible state. Mary Roever (Mariodacat) gave her my number so she could call me. It was wonderful to hear her “in person”. I will always remember her. Always.
Calista Jo, you are such a cutie pie! We will always remember Pattie, always. We too were fortunate enough to have met her and spent time with her on several occasions. More importantly, she was a friend.
That is an adorable selfie. How blessed you are to have met Pattie in person. Thanks for hosting. Have a great day. XO
My oh my, hard to imagine such a purrty girl has a bit of a temper hiding behind those gorgeous eyes …
Calista Jo is the poster kitty for Cattitude.
So sad that TW is gone. She will be missed.
xxoo
Looking meautiful Calista Jo, wishing mew all a purrfect day!
That is a lovely portrait of CJ. She may be a dilute tortie, but there is nothing dilute about her tortitude!
Pattie will be very sadly missed.
Calista Jo has such gorgeous fur – and while she doesn’t look particularly happy to have her photo taken she looks resigned to it and posed nicely for you! We did not know Miss Pattie but DO know she was well known in the world of kitties as well as being “Mom” to CK. Always very sad to lose a friend………..
Hugs, Teddy
We did not know Pattie but wrote her a little note and mama is very sad about her death and so glad she had so many friends. Maybe Calista Jo is upset about something….
That is really a gorgeous portrait of Calista Joe. I think the frame you chose really suits the feathery character of her fur coloration. I’m so sad about Pattie, and we send our purrs to CK and Pop.
I was not close to Pattie but valued her and CK’s abrasive look at life and her love for ferals on Friday. RIP Pattie.
Calista Jo, that is a beautiful selfie! It sounds like you really take your tortitude seriously. Hey, you gotta do you, right?
We, too, are gutted by Pattie’s passing. We were so fortunate to have been her friends in the blogging world and in real life, too. We’re sending love and gentle purrs for CK and Pop. We can’t even imagine. XO
