Shocking Feline Exploration—Two

HIYA! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Lemme explain about my lousy photos today. You see, it was late in the evening, and Mom L was about to fall asleep on the couch. I always sit on the opposite end from her or more often now, I come over and settle in close to her. So remember it was dark and all Dad P had was his smart phone to try to grab a couple of photos before I remembered what I was doing!

That's just the right spot

That’s just the right spot

Can you see where I am???!!! Can you? Really, be serious—can you tell where ALL FOUR OF MY PAWS ARE PLANTED??!!!

MOM L’S LAP!!!

She was just about asleep so I took advantage of the opportunity to spend about 1 to 1.29394 minutes, yes MINUTES!—NOT seconds—in her LAP!

Poor Mom L needed these lousy photos to remind her of what happened. She is almost asleep and I stayed right there for another sweep on my favorite grooming brush.

You snooze Mom L, you loose

You snooze Mom L, you loose

Almost every night since these photos were taken, about 10 days ago, I come over to her as long as the blue fleece is in her lap, and put at least two paws onto her lap. I haven’t yet repeated that daring moment when I places all four paws on her lap—but we are all convinced that day is not long off.

Now if only Dad P can get better photos of me and Mom L can stay awake. Silly humans. I am making history in my journey toward recovery from trauma with humans and Mom L snooze while Dad P only has his smart phone.

Lemme ask you all a question—do you think I was making progress? Was I brave?

Feline Exploration—One

HIYA!  SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I did so many things in about 30 minutes on Monday, I asked Mom L to split them all up into individual posts. I am so proud of myself for moving the target for being courageous a notch or two higher.

Now this won’t seem like much to most cats, but for me, a really, really big deal.

Part One is about a wonderful bench Mom L has in her office space. We have lived here for almost nine months and I have never, not ever, once jumped up on the bench. TKS does it all the time. Because I like to be close  to Mom L, and she spends so much time in this space taking care of administration of my blog, I decided to try out this bench.

What a soft cushion and pillow

What a soft cushion and pillow

Of course, she whipped out that camera faster than she can even walk! Never once thinking she would disturb my slumber.

"GOTCHA MOM L"

“GOTCHA MOM L”

I caught her in the act. Nonetheless, I am happy to share the first step in my Feline Exploration with all of you, my readers. Let me just say that I kept Mom L’s camera busy on Monday!

The Winner for Best Playful Savannah Photo

HIYA!!  SAVANNAH HERE!!!

My oh my, most of you who voted on my  Monday, February 22 blog post “Monday Fun with Savannah” to identify which of five photos best captured my Playful Savannah certainly agreed. Sixty eight per cent of the 49 votes were for photo NUMBER ONE!!  That one was overwhelmingly selected as capturing my inner playful kitten face! Thank you all for participating.

NUMBER ONE WINS!

68 per cent of the votes!

Number One

The closest follow up photo was Number Four, but even that one had only twenty-two and one half per cent of the votes. Too bad, because that one is Mom L’s fave! She likes how green my eyes are in that indirect sunlight and also the fact that my bottom teeth are showing and my mouth is open like I am about to speak to her.

Number Four

Number Four

Now here is the next question for any of you who will leave a comment with some advice for Mom L and me. You see, you just selected the photo I am going to enter as my Selfie for the Sunday Selfie Blog Hop hosted by my buddies over at The Cat On My Head.

But, Mom L and I need some advice and coaching on using a fun on line editor to make my photo “pop”—so to speak. We only use Photoshop Elements, Pic-monkey and piZap. We have a PC laptop so it needs to be something we can use on it. Let me know in comments what are some of the most fun and creative online editors that you use for events like Sunday Selfies, Caturday Art with Athena and whatnot. We don’t want to be stuck in the same old paw track!!
