Sunday Selfie Silly Time

Here we are for the Sunday Selfie blog hop, hosted by the wonderful Kitties Blue over at The Cat on My Head! In this unbearably hot summer weather we've been having, only one furbaby of mine has been up to taking selfies lately. That furbaby is, of course, none other than my little model Thimble.

To start off her selfie session, Thimble knew to adjust the camera so that it was just right.

There. How's that?

She didn't want just a plain selfie, though. So, how about a belly rolling selfie?

Woops. You're getting a little too wild and close up there, Thimble.

And now a tad too far, Thimble. (She may or may not have fallen off the couch in her excitement.)

Okay, forget the belly rolling. How's this? Better?

We hope all of our furiends have a beautiful Sunday!

Our Tip of the Day:
Today is National Mutt Day! That being said, today's tip is a friendly and simple reminder that a  mixed breed is never of lesser quality than a purebred furbaby. All animals deserve good homes, both mutt and purebred. But, do consider going to or spreading the word about your local shelters, where many mutts (as well as purebreds, of course) are awaiting their forever homes. Mutts not only can be sweet and beautiful furbabies, but, in some regards, they can also be healthier than purebreds. Although just about any animal can get just about any disease, it has been found that mutts are often far less likely to get certain diseases that tend to be passed on genetically within a purebred line. This is just one of many reasons why mutts should not be written off as of lesser quality than purebreds. All in all, both mutts and purebreds deserve good homes. But today, for National Mutt Day, please give extra consideration to those adorable mixed breed furbabies that make our lives so wonderful.

Oh, Thimble, those are really all great selfies but that last one gets the prize. Great pictures, especially the wild ones. You all have a great day.

Very nice selfies Thimble, I love all the different poses and angles. Mutts make great pets, we had a black lab/shepard mix and she was very sweet ( she went to the Bridge on 2011).

Thimble, you are the master of selfies. Each photo is terrific. It is obvious that you know you are adorable. Our dad calls "mutts" Heinz 57 dogs. Our humans love all dogs and kitties, of course!
