Greetings, Fabulous Felines and Hoomans of Hivelandia and surrounding communities!
The week seems to be flying by, but even though it is not yet Caturday I wanted to share my latest bit of news: I'm getting famous!
Well, maybe that's a bit of an exaggeration.
What actually has happened is that the Mom-Hooman is part of a group on Facebook called the "Black Cat Appreciation Group", and she's been posting some of my pictures there.
So a few days ago she posted the nice portrait shot you see here in this post and wouldn't you know it, it became one of the most popular pictures posted to the group in a long time!
Yes, hundreds of people looked at that picture and gave it the thumbs up!
If you're at all familiar with the nature of cats and our personalities, you'll also know that we love to think we are the rulers of all things and the most important beings on the planet!
So I'm basically just getting some of my due!
Now, if we could just get that many people to show up here in Hive to admire me, that would be awesome!
Fun With Cat Photograohy!
That said, we do have a lot of fun with photography around here. Both the Mom-Hooman and the Dad-Hooman are always carrying their phones around and are ready to take pictures whenever one of the cats ends up in a cute pose.
Of course, I am by far the most popular! However, I do tolerate that Smudge sometimes gets the spotlight, as well.
And we all know that cats are pretty much the unofficial mascot of the Internet! So there's always a good reason to share some cat photos!
Hold up! I did NOT give anyone permission to post this!
Speaking of "mascots," did you know there is actually a "National Black Cat Appreciation Day?"
There is!
It is observed on August 17th every year. So if I didn't already feel special enough this would be my special day where I would feel even more special!
Anyway, that is my update for today. I appreciate you stopping by to have a look, and I look forward to seeing you again for Caturday!

Love Cats? Get Involved in Hive's Cat Communties!
If you're a cat lover and often/sometimes post pictures or other content that includes your feline friends, why not become an active part of Hive's growing Cat Communities?
These are some of the more active Cat Communities — why not join them ALL? Remember, you can also "cross-post" your cat posts to them!
HiveCats by @curatorcat is a central "gathering place" for cat content on Hive; promoting the use of the #hivecats tag for feline content!
Cat Snaps by @manorvillemike is a place to post pictures of your cats when you don't have a whole lot to say beyond just sharing your cute photos!
Caturday Community by @saboin is a community where we get to celebrate posts relating to Saturday — aka "Caturday" — our own special day!
Cat Photos by @andrarchy is a "mixed use" cat content community; posts can be just photos or longer, as long as the subject is CATS! It has a lot of subscribers but is not very active.
Cats by @captainklaus (and Sissi!) is another "general" cat content community; it's there, but not very active.
Last, but certainly not least, a special shoutout to the Hive Pets Community which has become quite active and typically has quite a bit of cat content!
There are a number of other feline communities listed on Hive, but I am not sharing them for now as they have not had any activity (by their Admins OR users) since the Steem/Hive fork. Updates as they become available!
