August Time Selfies

 Wow, suddenly its August!

Time sure does fly. Later this month, it will be Dalton's birthday...we can't decide if he's seven or nine, but judging by all the grey on his muzzle he might easily be nine on that day...Aug 20th...Who cares! He has his best life now, with us, and that counts way more than the years on his calendar.

Hi Ya'll...I am happy, esp when I try to get closer to petcretary...I am slowly scootching over to her, BOL!

Too distracted....for a selfie.

Me too, BOL!!

OK, this is my selfie...now leave me alone, I am hot!

Very pale image...so it needed some work....

Fixed! Petcretary says these are 'volunteer' purple cone flowers. She wished they had volunteered closer to our patio, BOL!! She'll harvest the seed heads and plant them on purpose near our patio, or in big containers...we'll see how they grow next year. Those poles are holding up fencing to keep tthe pups out...they thought there was a varmint in there...

We are sharing our selfies with all the others at The Cat On My Head...they are the weekly hosts of The Sunday Selfies! Thank you very much, Kitties Blue!

  1. Happy birthday in advance! Paws and toes and claws crossed them daisy like blooms will take in your tubs. Blooms are definitely to be encouraged, just like your great selfies.

    PS We love the concept (new to us) of a 'volunteer' plant.

  8. Love your volunteer flowers! I never seemed to get any volunteers from my echinacea, in fact, they never came back, come to think of it. Oops...black thumb strikes again. Great selfies, guys.

  10. Rosie and Baby have birthdays in August too. Where does the time go?

    We have a big bunch of coneflowers growing in the back yard. The bunny was hiding behind them this morning. After chasing the bunny, the pups enjoyed watching the busy bumblebees in those flowers.

  17. You are definitely handsome guys. Thank you for your condolences for our late Mr T, all the meesages have been a huge support. Tell your humans you love them - humans need lots of reassurances sometimes. Thanks guys - Tigger's mum.
