Sunday Selfies: Week #89
In honor of National Pet Parents Day* I decided to include my mommy in my selfie. Once I had the timer set up, I held her down so she couldn’t bolt. I like to get up-close-and-personal so she can smell the stinky goodness on my breath and admire my handsomeness. It appears as if she is ignoring me, but that’s just not possible. A 14-pound cat on one’s chest is impossible to ignore, especially when that cat starts chatting. I am a champion chatty catty!
Wow, check out those toesies. Pretty terrific, don’t you think? I know you want to kiss them.
As far as my mommy goes: It’s a darn good thing I took this photo prior to yesterday afternoon and her falling smack on her face. She probably wouldn’t want to share a photo showing a big bruise on her chin. She is always just one step away from an accident, and yesterday she took one step too many…right off the edge of the cement pad where the pool sits. MOUSES!
Anyhoo, if you’d like to share a selfie with your mommy or daddy or grammy or grampy for the blog hop, we think that would be pretty cool.
So by now you know the purrcedure for hopping. The link-up for your photo is below as is the code to add the hop to your blog if you’d like. Mom just has one request if you do this: Please include a link in your post to The Cat on My Head and/or display our badge. Easy peasy!
And purrlease encourage your bloggy and Facebook friends to join in the fun. Remember, all anipals are welcome regardless of species. If you missed last week, Friends Furever shared dolphins and Kitty Cat Chronicles introduced us to the new members of their family, Sugar Gliders, Jubilee ad Sydney. You just never know who you might meet here on Sundays. It could turn out to be your new BFF.
I’m off to see what kind of mischief I can get up to.
Purrs and paw-pats, Mau (with special smooches for Allie)
* National Pet Parents Day, an unofficial national holiday, was created by Veterinary Pet Insurance (VPI) in 2007. The inspiration came from recognizing the majority of their policyholders considered their pets as members of their family.
What a sweet selfie duo!
We are late dropping in, and we just posted our selfies too…with our petcretary, She just nevfur gets herself in pictures as we made her do this week!!

Love this photo! So sweet. We bet your mom got some toesie kisses in for sure! Please give your mom some kisses and hugs and purrs from all of us – we are sorry that she had such a rough fall! That doesn’t sound like any fun. Hope she is on the mend. Sampy sends 29384756293847652983475 kisses to Astrid, and we all send lots of love!
Cute! I love this! Chloe Jo took a selfie with my phone. I caught her. Maybe I will get it posted! You are a great PetMom. XO
That really is the epitome of sweetness. Love those pushed feet! Hope your chin heals up quick. I’m a prime-time klutz myself, so I know what you’re going through. I always seem to have a bruise somewhere!

Our Mama is always tripping on carpets here and falling and bruising her knees. What a clutz she is! Make sure you all give your Mama extra love and cuddles! We are sending heaps to her from all of us and from our Mama too with lots of hugs thrown in 🙂

Looks like you have your mom’s attention. What are you talking about.
Happy Parent’s Day!!!!!
Oh gosh, I hope your mom is OK and not too bruised up. My assistant is quite clumsy and is always walking into things and falling down.
P.S.: Your toesies are adorable!
That’s such a sweet selfie with your mom ! We’re sorry to hear about her ouchie, we send her healing purrs and hope she recovers quickly. Purrs
Good job holding your mom down. We are sorry to hear that she hurt herself, and hope her bruise heals quickly.
What a sweet selfie! WE just love it. Most of the time we are more distant kitties. Mom wishes we loved hugs and kisses but we only give those out sparingly. Well when Mom gets one it means we’ve made her really earn it! Tee hee Happy Sunday Selfies.
Yes, I do want to nuzzle those little toes (sans claws in the face, of course)! Poor mommy! I’m sorry to hear about your accident and hoping that you heal up quickly. Things like that happen so fast and could be so much worse. Glad you’re okay! 🙂
That is a beautiful selfie with your Mom, good idea to hold her down. I am sorry she fell, I hope she recovers quickly.
Mau, you look like you’re gonna make biscuits on your mom. We bet she’d love that! And we sure hope her chin is better. Ouch!
OMC….Mau. It must be the week for mom to take tumbles. My mom fell on her bad knees on Thursday morning while out feeding one of her outside colonies. Good thing she didn’t fall on any cats….. bad thing is her knees are purple like your moms chin. Humans are so clumsy unlike us felines.
Hope your mom is doing better.
A heart full of love for my sweet Ms Lisbeth and purrs for all,
Charles
Great selfie and how clever to include your Mom. Yin and Chimera are the chatterboxes here.
Great selfie! Hope her chin gets better!
We’re so glad that you held your Mom down for this great selfie! Those are some pretty awesome toesies, and yes, we do want to kiss them! 🙂
Happy National Pet Parents Day! (thanks for letting us know about that!)
That is a most wonderful selfie!
My husband and I just started a blog for our precious little kitty Gabby, and we had no idea that this was a thing! There is a whole culture that we’re so excited to find!!
That loud thud you heard was Allie……..she says she would love to kiss those paws and would really LOVE to hear you be a chatty catty!! We hope your Mom’s ouchie gets better quickly. Humans are so fragile.

Ouch! Hoping your mom’s face be okay. You did a magnificient Selfie job, though, I must compliment you on your Paw-severence! We have always called April the Mis-haps month, our owner having had a mis-encounter of her own! Love to you both.
Oh my…your mom klooks good guys. How does she look after her fall? We hope she’s not to messed up.

What a lovely selfie!
We had no idea it was National Pet Parent Day (we’re British). We should make it International 🙂
Purrs xx

Aw, this is such a sweet selfie with your mom, Mau! You really did a great job holding her down. Humans can be quite fickle, unpredictable creatures, so you did the right thing by keeping her in place. I sure hope your mom feels better after her fall, Mau. Purrs to all!
Oh, Mau, you look adorable and your toetsies…Granny wished I had so big toesies 😀 Pawkisses for a Happy Pet Parent Day and some Healing Pawkisses to make your mom feel better soon 🙂 <3 <3 <3
No photos with my human! Sparkle’s instructions say she is not allowed on the blog. 😉
Oh dear – we hope your Mom’s fall didn’t hurt her too badly – cement is not “forgiving” ! Our selfie today is a LATE Earth Day Selfie – my Mom and Dad were out of town and Mom forgot to post THIS on the right day. Better late than never? When it comes to Mother Earth – late is better than never we say! Happy Sunday.
Love, Sammy
Just in time ! your poor mum ! I didn’t know about cat parents day, so my cats helped themselves without me !
A lovely selfie! AND we just got under the wire for last week’s selfies. The week got away from us.
We love your selfie picture!!
Happy National Pet Parent Day, Mau & Mom!
Great pic of you and your Mommy! We hope her ouchie heals soon and no more falls!
Sending kissies to all those precious toesies. >>Smooch smoochity smooch smooch>>
You are too adorable, Mau, and we love your selfie with Mommy! Hope she’s not hurting too much!
Mau! Do what *I* do…put your paw in your Mommy’s mouth! They howl with delight…and it might distract her from her owie.
(yeowch! Heal up soon.)
Yr Mancatly Pal, Tiny Johnson
You did a great job holding her down for the selfie. You definitely don’t want them bolting on you!
Oh, Mau, we LOVE this selfie of you and Mommy. Good job holding her still with those cute toesies of yours. Sorry to hear she fell and hurt herself. It sure sounds painful, and we are sending lots of purrs and prayers that she heals real soon. Hugs to you all, and thanks as always for hosting the Sunday Selfies Blog Hop! 🙂
