Sparks Today is Earth Day, and I selected an appropriate quote for my Spark. The Spark may be evident, but it is definitely worth reminding ourselves of it every day. The first Earth Day was April 22, 1970. The Earth Day Organization web-site is bursting with information about Earth Day and its origins and definitely worth your time to read.     The author of today’s Spark, Juan Evo Morales Ayma is a 64-year-old Bolivian labour leader. He served from 2006 to 2019 as Bolivia’s President and was Bolivia’s first president of indigenous descent. Sparks is the creation of Annie from McGu ..read more

Sunday Selfies: Week #505     I mentioned yesterday that I might have a two-fur or usie, as they are more commonly known, for today’s selfie. Here is Cooper Murphy in the foreground and Raleigh in the background. As you can see, Cooper Murphy, at almost 20 pounds, outweighs his little brofur substantially! E-Mail Problems As I also mentioned yesterday, my e-mail (janet.blue@thecatonmyhead.com) is currently not working. I can neither send nor receive e-mail. I have gotten nowhere with trying to resolve the problem and expect it will be Monday before I can get it fixed. If you need to ..read more

It’s hard to believe, but this is The Cat on My Head’s 3,500th post. It has taken nearly 12 years to get to this point. To everyone who has ever visited, we thank you!  Caturday Art Audrey and Raleigh are back today, as I used their Feline Friday photo as the basis for today’s Caturday Art.     To create today’s art, I used the Bozin effect from Painnt and backed off a bit on the saturation. To that I added the Faded Paper filter from piZap at 100 percent. The frame is from the favpng app. Today, I am giving you two puzzles. I created one from the original photo and one from th ..read more

I don’t know how I messed this up, but I some how scheduled this post to go out at 11 p.m. tonight. Sorry! Thoroughly Poetic Thursday Angel Sammy and Teddy (Two Spoiled Cats) provided an adorable inspiration photo for today’s poetry challenge. Well…I think it is an adorable photo. Kitties Blue…not so much.     Doggie Day Care Doggie Day Care is so much fun! I get to go to the park and swing in the sun, Some canines would rather run around crazily, but I prefer to go up and down lazily. Sometimes I get a dog biscuit to munch. I keep time with the swing…crunch…crunch…crunch. When it i ..read more

It is Tuesday, so Stinky is anxiously waiting by the teleportation tunnel for Periwinkle’s arrival. He is unsure about the plan for their adventure and whether or not Periwinkle will enjoy it. He doesn’t have long to brood about it, as the teleportation tunnel starts to vibrate, and Periwinkle pops out with the usual whoosh. Stinky catches her in his paws and they share some whisker kisses. After several minutes of catching up on the week’s events, Stinky leads Periwinkle back into the teleportation tunnel. Virginia Tech – Blacksburg, Virginia Their trip is an especially quick one. They are on ..read more

Sunday Selfies: Week #504 I am fortunate Kizmet is a most accommodating cat. She agreed at 10:15 p.m. to snap a selfie. She did an incredible job. It helps that she’s extremely photogenic. And she is always happy to pose!     Kizmet will be looking for your selfie on the hop as will I and the remainder of the Kitties Blue. If you cannot come by today, that’s A-OK. The hop remains open through Thursday. If you would like to encourage some of your friends, who may not know about our hop, to join us, that would be terrific! Thank you so much for coming by today. We truly appreciate you ..read more

Kaleidoscopic Caturday Art Sawyer is here today in Lisbeth’s fish bed, which she received several years ago from her boyfriend Charles. Charles is an angel, but his gift remains and is a favorite of all the Kitties Blue who are able to fit inside. The day Sawyer was enjoying it, the fish was atop a warm radiator and in a sunpuddle. Pretty much everything a cat could want, except for maybe some nommy treats to munch. The photo makes it look as if Sawyer’s head is not attached to his body, but he was in one piece the last time I checked.     To create the art, I used the Latham effect ..read more

Feline Friday We continue to have lots of cloudy, rainy and windy days. When the catio is not a fun place to be, Kitties Blue are napping somewhere in the house.

Click on the badge below if you would like to join the hop. Friendly Fill-Ins The Friendly Fill-Ins blog hop is hosted each Friday by Ellen (15 And Meowing) and Lorianne (Four-Legged Furballs).
