Another Bookish Selfie

September 10, 2017 By: Summer Samba40 Comments

somali cat supervising book packing

While my human packed up the books to take to her vending table, I helped. I also thought it might be a good time for a selfie.

Ugh! I hope she doesn’t interrupt me. My human is in a hurry and I don’t have time to mess around.

I decided to pose with one of Sparkle’s books for my selfie, so I will have to prop up the phone and set the timer.

Well, this looks a little bit fuzzy. Maybe I should give it another try.

Or maybe not!

cat books and cards for sale

Here is the table my human set up. It wasn’t a great day for sales — she actually sold more nip knots than books. But she is glad she went anyhow, because she met lots of nice people, including someone who is holding a rescue pet focused event who wants her to vend there. He is a big rescue cat lover. So her time there turned out to be well spent.

When she was getting ready to pack up, a young girl stopped by her table… and she had the tiniest kitten ever! So she snapped a photo while he dozed.

    Dear Ms Summer, I do believe your selfies are wonderful and that you included Ms Binga shows you are most amazing of siblings.
    And I am so very happy that your human had a wonderful time at the show.

    I tell you since Binga has become a Crotchety Cougar she is surely getting out and prancing herself into all your photos…but that is ok as she is a purrty tortie
    Hugs madi your bfff
    PS we are so glad the nip knots were popular. Your human might want to patent that idea!

    The tiniest kitten ever (which to be honest for us will always be Chimera) looks a lot like Yin. We hope it has a good home. Your selfies as always are wonderful Summer.

    At least you got a selfie in before Binga came to investigate… maybe you could have arranged a swap, Binga for the kitten?…. only kidding……………. maybe.

    We think you’re a perfectionist, Summer. Your selfie shot was great! Better be fast than dealing with torties…
