Shiny Sunday Selfies

Happy Sunday! We have been looking forward to today, as it is the day of one of our favorite blog hops. That is, of course the Sunday Selfies blog hop, hosted by the Kitties Blue of The Cat on My Head!


Sometimes it's a guessing game who will step up and take a selfie for the week. This time around, though, Thimble was more than eager to be the model. Not all that surprising, really, as she is more often than not willing to ham it up for the camera. Except, this time, she was simply too busy to look at the camera while she snapped those selfies.


Whatever has your attention, Thimble?


Oh, yes, I see.


Lights! Evan always says that the sun makes the most fantastic light shows on the wall, and that they're so fun to watch and chase. So, Thimble decided to test out that claim of Evan's. And you know what? She says he's right! Those lights are just so darn mesmerizing!

So, there you have it. Thimble may have been too busy to look at the camera for her selfies, but at least they're bright and shiny!

Do any of our furiends ever get distracted by lights? If so, we hope it didn't interfere with your selfies today like it did for little lady Thimble

Wishing you all a lovely day!

Our Doodle of the Day:


(Fun fact: This human here doesn't like coffee. I find the aroma of it perfectly addictive, but I have no palate for the taste of it. So, this doodle is for all of you out there who do like their kitties with a side of coffee!)

Our Tip of the Day:
Today's tip is one I'm sure you've all heard before, and it is to make sure that when your furbaby plays with lights, the game ends with some sort of reward. A kitty or pup may indeed end up feeling frustrated if they are unable to catch their prey, whether it be a laser light, reflection on the wall, or even a mouse or other physical prey. So, when it comes to playing with lights, before ending the game, try to throw a toy or treat where your furbaby last saw the light. That way, they can feel like they truly caught their prey and were victorious in their chase. We all like winning, even our furbabies!

We like the lights, too, Thimble. Sometimes the sun bounces off the walls making the best light.

Thimble, you sure are engrossed. I look like that when I hear a mouse running around, or see my Niko toy being wafted around.
Purrs, Erin

Great job on the selfies Thimble despite being distracted. I LOVE the drawing, I definitely run on cats and coffee. Excellent tip too, I only have 2 that will chase the laser, but I never thought to give them something for their troubles.

You have the most darling little face, Thimble! And as a coffee addict, your artwork is just purrfect!

Kitties Blue said...

That's a great suggestion about the treat. Thimble is very cute in these photos. We get some great reflections on the wall from the leaded glass windows in the front of the house. Our mommy doesn't like coffee either...unless it is coffee ice cream. How weird is that! Thanks for hopping with us.

That is so funny! Look at those flattened ears. Thimble must have thought she had a chance of catching that light.
