Sunday Selfie

Thimble's been spending lots of time in our library lately. You probably already knew that, since we've been sharing lots of photos of Thimble in said library. Obviously, Thimble loves her books. That's not the only reason Thimble spends so much time in the library, though. She also frequents the library because it has the window from which she can most easily snoopervise the neighbors. That was a bit of tangent, though, especially since Thimble's selfie for today wasn't even snapped at the window.


Thimble thought she'd go for a slight turn of her adorable head in this selfie. There's nothing like a cute little profile shot. She also wanted to show off her whiskers. She's quite proud of them.

Thimble of course snapped this selfie for the Sunday Selfies Blog Hop, hosted by the Kitties Blue over at The Cat on My Head. One of the hosts, Sawyer, suffered another serious seizure on Friday, and we are sending him all of our purrs and prayers.

Doodle of the Day:




***
Did you know?
Did you know that a typical cat has roughly 12 whiskers on each cheek? And did you know that a cat has whiskers on more than just its face? Cats have whiskers on their cheeks, above their eyes, on their chin, and also on the back of each front leg. The whiskers on the back of the front legs assist with climbing, as well as with catching, holding, and even killing prey.

Thimble, Mom says you make a cute bibliophile (whatever that means). Tummy tickles.

Beautiful whiskers Thimble- everything on you is beautiful :) Very cute drawing. Interesting facts too. When I had a 3-legged cat, Brina, one side of her face had long whiskers and the side with the missing leg had short whiskers like her body compensated for it.

Thimble's selfie is wonderful AND so is the doodle. When you read a book, you enter a WHOLE NEW WORLD....reading is magic!

Hugs, Pam and Teddy too

Books and a place for snoopervising the neighbors? That sounds like a great spot to us, too, Thimble!
