Caturday Flashblack: the Holidays 2014

December 10, 2016 By: Summer Samba31 Comments

somali cat with toys for Santa Kitty Toy Hop

Today, I thought I’d take a look at what I was doing for the holidays two years ago. This photo is from the Santa Kitty Toy Hop! That was such a fun idea, gathering cat toys for shelter kitties for the holidays. Maybe I should bring it back next year.

I also had my very first TICA cat show as an adult, in the Alter class. I did really well at that show — in fact, I got Best Alter in two rings!

I also did several holiday photo shoots.

Binga insisted on being in one. In other words, she totally messed things up. (More proof is here.)

I didn’t have to wear something every time my human wanted to photograph me, though. In fact, she had forgotten about this photo shoot! She likes this picture so much, she may make it into a card.

I hope you enjoyed my Caturday flashback!

    No, no. Binga didn’t mess things up. She’s your elder so you should look up (heh heh) to her.

    Binga looks really cool in that Santa cap. What an elegant casual way to wear it. She is every bit the star. No wonder you look a bit disgruntled in the photo. Don’t worry Sparkle, you always look very special.

    Summer, we were just thinking about the Santa Toy Hop that we did back then. We really enjoyed doing that. We still donate food and toys to our shelter every holiday.

    What a cool flashback! We had just started blogging in 2014, so we didn’t know about the Santa Kitty Toy Hop. We’d definitely participate in that. We have a facebook page for our Christmas Shelter Project, but we didn’t do anything with it this year.

    These are all very pretty pictures!

    I love the first one, because a pretty cat looking UP at a camera, makes for a pretty picture.

    I love the LAST one too, because it shows your all-natural beauty.

    You have that “Kitten” look about you. Simply sweet. Beautiful pics too! Amazing how time flies by so fast. Thank goodness for pictures. Binga brings so much pizzazz to the photo shoots. We can see why the last pic is favored by your mom. We love it too! Purrs

    I certainlyDID enjoy the flashback. And TWO smile makers in one day. I loved going back to the one in 2014! It made me laugh then and did again today! Your Human and you have the best sense of humor out there!
