Caturday Art
The petretary (AKA Mom) thought I should be the representative for Caturday Art today. She had another of her harebrained ideas. She was going to try to turn me into some kind of storm-ravished feline. In case you missed the news, the most recent tropical storm in the Atlantic is named after me: FIONA.
Fortunately for me, Mom’s idea did not come to fruition. She actually achieved some stormy looking creations in Dreamscope, but I wasn’t recognizable. I vetoed showing those. Here is what I selected to share.
We started with this photo. Mom did use the Headcut Portrait feature in Dreamscope, which gave us the black and white image. We both liked it but thought it needed to be highlighted by a bit of color, so we added the Celebrate filter as well as a light blue scroll border in piZap. The latter does not show up very well after the addition of the frame from Photofacefun.
This is our submission in Athena Cat Goddess Wise Kitty’s Caturday Art Blog Hop. This is a super fun hop. If you haven’t entered, give it a whirl. There are oodles of free photo-editing apps you can use. Mom often uses more than one app on a photo as she did here.

International Homeless Animals’ Day®
My housemates and I are all very thankful to have a great home with plenty of noms, love, toys, nip and appropriate vet care. But we know many animals are not as fortunate as we are. Today we want to give our thanks to all those caring humans who give their time and efforts to supporting TNR, maintaining feral colonies, fostering and helping homeless animals in any way they can. In our eyes you are angels!
Sunday Selfies Reminder
Don’t forget to start planning your selfie for tomorrow so you can join our super fun blog hop. All anipals are welcome, even those who aren’t pets.
Thanks to our good friend Kevin (AKA meowmeowmans) we have some new photos of our honorary sisfur, Swizzle, who we sponsor at PAWS of Connecticut. Consequently, she will be your host tomorrow. If you are new to our blog or the hop and haven’t met her, you don’t want to miss this opportunity. She is a true beauty. We’d be over the moon if she could have her very own home and people, but we are super thankful she is not one of the homeless.
Until then…purrs and paw-pats, Fiona
Hey, I like that art even if it’s not storm-related.
