Hi, shutterbugs and welcome to my first blog post. I’m happy to be writing my first blog post…ok, I just wrote that without really thinking it through …let me rephrase.
I’m happy to be writing my first post after I have
Have eaten all the kitty treats.
Scratched the wall for 15 minutes
Played attack the ankles all morning
And had a nice long nap
I thought I would start by Introducing myself. My name is Bling-bling. Bling for short. I had at least a dozen names before this name, only because those I live with, couldn’t seem to make up their minds. This can make the first weeks at a new place confusing. You start to respond (slowly of course) to a whole assortment of words thinking it may be your name. Some of the mistakes I made were with frequent words like, Dinner, Phone, What, No, Toilet & See ya. Then one day, I was given a sparkling pink color with a fancy cat charm. A little bling-bling for me to show off, and so with great relief I now had a permanent name.
I thought I would sum up this introduction with: Five Things You Should Know About Me.
I can type (obviously)
I like to chase mice
I like to chase mice anything that moves
I like to chase mice (I need to emphasis this, it’s very important to me)
I like Photography
I like working as a photographers’ assistant. (I was just told that was six things- maybe math is not my thing)
Ok I forgot one more… I like dog jokes…I know, I know… that’s seven.
Working with photography is in my blood. I found this old photograph of my great, great, great, great (ok, you get the idea) grandparents take in 1898.
For the record, I may need to state that I have not officially traced the lineage back to these exact cats, but I figured we are all related somehow. Just like humans – I think. Anyway, as you can see my ancestors are a breed of talented felines, and I plan to whole heartily continue in their paw-steps.
