Who WAS That Masked Kitty?

August 6, 2019 By: Summer Samba40 Comments

Some time back, the human who my nephew Louie lives with got a bunch of tiny masks for me. My human has been trying to figure out how best to use them. Eventually they will need elastic, but it’s been hard for her to figure out just the right way to get them to fit on my head, and look good. In any case, she discovered that a couple of them would just sit on my face… if I sat still for a moment.

See what I mean? Although, I have to say, I don’t feel very mysterious with it on.

Like I said, if I sat still for a moment, the mask stayed on. And it looks like this moment is about over.

Uh-oh, there it goes!

Why does my forehead still feel ticklish?

    I LIKE the masks! Purple, of course, and some Mardi Gras beads to complete the outfit. Everyone will want to be in your crewe!

    Oh Summer! We thought that first mask shot was fab, and that you should immediately book a trip to Venice for the next carnival!

    You are amazing dear Summer. The fact that the mask stayed in your face is a miracle.

    We like the purple mask with no feathers. The purple one sitting over your name. Why hide such pretty face. You don’t need a mask.

    Cute! Those mini-masks are quite pretty and colorful – good for you being patient enough to wear that pink one even though it left one of its’ feathers behind!

    You do look cute in the mask, but the last photo is lovely even though there is a stray piece of feather there.

    I forgot to comment on the masks! I think it
    looks very nice. Now, if your human can just figure
    a way to get them to stay on – comfortably.

    What a great close-up at the end! I just have to say it….
    “Mr. Demille, she’s ready for her close-up!” Yes, there is
    a piece of pink fuzz there. What a good model and very
    patient kitty! I hope you are getting a lot of treats for this work.
