What you see on my blog is sometimes different from what you see on my Instagram! That was obvious when I used an app called “Best Nine” to find my 9 most popular photos of 2019. There were several photos that never appeared on the blog, or appeared at a later date than they did on Instagram. Each one has a story, so I thought I’d tell them to you!
I’ve numbered the pictures, and to keep the blog from running too long, I’ll focus on photos 1 through 5 today, and 6 through 9 tomorrow.
Sometimes on Instagram, I post twice about my therapy cat visits — once the day of the visit, and once the next day, when I also share an abbreviated version of my blog post. Photo Number One is one of the “day of” pictures. It was posted on August 4. The actual visit appeared on my blog and on Instagram the next day. Sadly, this particular hospital closed down at the end of the year.
Photo Number Two is another one that didn’t appear on the blog. When Binga passed away in June, we had an amazing outpouring of support, not just on the blog, but across all the social media channels where I’m active. This photo, in which I thanked my Instagram readers for their love and support, appeared there on June 29. My thank you post on my blog didn’t appear until July 15, because I wanted to share the cards I got.
Photo Number Three was a fun memory! It’s from the day I did my role in the film, Take Me to Tarzana. This photo was on both my blog and on Instagram on May 29. In case you are wondering, they are finishing up post production, so I hope they will have a release date soon!
I did a couple of different photo sessions for Pride Month, wearing my rainbow necktie. Photo Number 4 appeared on Instagram on June 1. It didn’t appear on my blog until the next day.
I was really surprised to see Photo Number 5 in my Best Nine! It was a total fluke — one morning my human picked me up and took a photo of me on her iPhone. You can tell I was not really in the mood. But it had a tiny moment of being viral on December 27. That’s the date it also showed up on my blog, where it was also pretty popular.
Check back tomorrow for the rest of the photos — I think you’ll like those stories lots too!

OMC! I love #5. I’m not on IG so thanks for sharing these.
That last picture of you is SO cute!
What a cool look back at 2019 memories. Our favorite picture is #1. Can’t wait to see the next set previewed. Purrs
I love reading anything you say Summer and I will go and re-read the blog about Binga’s passing. It made mommy tear up the first time. We adore Binga and miss her so much.
You are a stunner Summer! I adore pic 5!
We love getting the backstory on these photos, Summer! We follow you on all social media channels, of course. 🙂
Photo 5 is kind of an “Upset Cat Look!”
Four and five are our favorites!
Purrz!

Sad as you were about losing Binga, we bet you were almost as sad about that hospital closing. What a pity for all the people who were patients there.
Those were all great photos. I especially like the one in your pink boa.
It was fun reading the stories behind the photos. I love your look with rainbow necktie for Pride Month 🙂
It’s nice to hear the stories behind your most popular photos ! Purrs
Interesting back stories. I would just like to touch
your beautiful fur and paws. I’m sure you get a lot
of that.
An inside look at the life of celebrikitty Summer! Yay!
Very nice
Thanks for sharing the stories behind the photos. Mom always forgets to look at instagram. I think the last photo she posted there was of Angel Tamir.

It’s fun to hear the stories behind the magic sweet Summer!
Is nice to know more about the photos. I think I might have missed #3 when I was on holiday.
Photo number five is fun and it also makes you look a little bit like a koala bear!
It’s always interesting to read the background information to your photos, Summer!
Purrs,
Tama and Genji
