Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

This week Eric has the main flashback from June 2010 which was a Mancat Monday.

Mum is trying to get my photo for Mancat Monday but I told her to take the flashy box away.

I refuse to turn around.

Haven't you got the message yet mum?

If I hide behind these Moon Daisies she won't see me.

Oops, she nearly got me.

Right, I'm coming out, but the daisy stays in front of me

And a post for Flynn also from June 2010.

Don't Wake Me.

There I was peacefully napping the day away.

Suddenly I sensed I was being watched.

You've just got to spoil a good nap with that flashy box haven't you mum.

I am joining Athena, the Cat Goddess for Caturday Art.


For Eric I started with Grey at 50%, then added Psychedelic at 45%.


For Flynn I used Yarn at 34%, then Red Blush at 60%.

  2. Sometimes they are funny about the flashy box. They'll often stop doing something cute as soon as you reach for the camera.

    Thanks for linking up with Feline Friday!

  3. Dearest Jackie,
    Hoping that. things went well for you today!
    Know that you're in my prayers and thoughts.
    As for Eric, he was hilarious for not wanting to be captured on camera. Oh, they know very well IF we plan to do just that!
    Flynn sure was taking a heavenly nap and it is rough when being disturbed.
    Poor boys—what a life they had.
    Big hugs,
    Mariette + Kitties

  4. Eric and Flynn, we feel the same way about the flashy beast but it seems like all our friends and your friends enjoy seeing us.

    Sending healing woos and prayers to you at this time.

  5. Eric always was a most reluctant poser. The flashy box had a lot to answer for, didn't it?

  6. GOOD HEALTH TO YOU and healing thoughts. The medical world works wonders.

  8. Our Pipo was like Eric, in that he too hated the camera...I never used flash, but he almost always put his head down or turned away.
    Your sleeping Flynn was so comfy and peaceful. Makes me feel the same way.

    I hope your days of having treatments will go as planned and I pray the side effects will be minimal.
    Sending love and hugs along with the prayers.

  9. How do they always know we have the camera when they seem to be sound asleep! And I read about the adders. I do not think that was a safe choice for Flynn!

  10. Humans always spoil the fun and the napping, don't they? That's the trouble with being gorgeous and famous, everyone wants to see you!

    Jackie, I have been and will be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Sending Love and Light. ❤️🙏

  18. I'm happy that you received the mug. Hot tea is always comforting. I don't have your email either.

    Love the pictures of Eric amongst the long grasses and daisies! And Flynn is so cute in his closeups. Your art always appeals. Here's hoping that you are tolerating your treatments well, and that you are making positive progress. More hugs from Wendy & Dani🥰

  23. Oh how we love seeing these flashbacks of our dear friends......know what? I am masterful at waiting for the last possible second when Mom is taking a photo of me by turning my head JUST IN TIME. She gets a little bit upset!!!!

  28. Eric and Flynn definitely weren't in the mood for having their photos taken that day. We're thinking lots about you, Jackie, and sending love and purrs.

  29. Kitties can read their Humans' thoughts. We always know when you are about to whip out the Flashy Box.

    Ms. Jackie, We are thinking about you all the time. Hugs and purrs from Us all.

  30. Hi Jackie! (Marv waves wildly) , have figured out how to NOT get my pawtraits taken! It has been driving Mom nuts as we are now getting the opportunity to blog and she says she has not good shoots! Serves her right!
    Thanks for commenting on our posts. Nutmeg is a handful. Mom can't wait for her to sleep all the way through the night. We were just looking at the previous post with all the cards from all of the cat blogging peoples! How exciting! We are sending you much love and hugs! Keep being awesome sending you big head bonks and loads of love. Marvelous Marv and Mom Barb

  35. Aww, such a lovely flashback. Both Elsa and Wilson, the House Pony feel the same way about the flashy box. Or in our case most of the time, the flashy phone even when I subdue the flash. Sigh. It's a terrible curse not being very teckey. ;)
