The Diva's Day of Filming!

I really had quite an adventure today! Started out my video shoot at 9:30 AM in front of Sasha’s Suds and Duds 802 West Gray. Before it got too hot, although it was already getting warm, we did the shots with my chauffer Scott and his beautiful 1950s convertible “Cat”illac. I wanted to drive, and I’m sure I would have done a much better job, but I got even …

The inside shots at Sasha’s went quite well. Everyone showed me beautiful clothes and jewelry I could pick from for my birthday party. Sasha looked very beautiful too, but I prefer the camera to focus on me!

Well, while the humans were doing all their cut-away shots, I sang a very pretty song, but they just kept saying, “Quiet on the set!” So I found a nice place to take a nap, right when I heard them say, “we’re doing really good on time.” I gave them their wish and stayed very quiet until they finally found me 30 minutes later hanging-out behind a bag on a shelf. Well, after all, one of the lines was, “We’re going to be late getting to Cactus!” I was just following the part!

Then when I got to Cactus, I was very happy to meet my SMART Rescue friends! I went up to each carrier and said hello – I especially loved Nelli and laid down in front of her carrier (she was saved from an abusive home). Baby Jessie is just a little baby boy – very cute black kitty. I didn’t fuss over him too much though since, you know, I like being the star cat! It really upsets me some mean kids were going to use Jessie as a soccer ball! I am so glad SMART Rescue saved him!

Eli is a very sweet doggie. So much has happened to him recently, I don’t blame him for being a little scared, but he was very nice to everyone. He’s a Shih Tzu that was found running in the intersection of I45 and Richey Rd! SMART Rescue had to arrange a surgery for him to remove both his eyes that were damaged due to a previous head trauma. He is doing so well now, and really happy in his new life!

We had a guest appearance by a sweet black dog SMART Rescue found on the way over named Bella! Luckily they saw lost signs around where they found her, and she was on her way back home after the video shoot. Well, Bella will have a real tale to tell her friends when she gets home!

When I saw all these cuties were going to be in my video, I acted up a bit – afterall, I am the Diva! I settled down though when I realized how important it is to find my friends loving homes! Be sure to visit with SMART Rescue folks if you could open up your heart and home to one (or a few!) of these great guys/gals!

Boy, I really loved my paparazzi scene! Ron looked REALLY great and so fit the part! You’ll just have to wait and see that in the video!

I was really exhausted after two days of filming! I took a little nap, had my dinner, and now I’m ready to hang out in the yard! Thank you all my friends at SMART Rescue, Cactus Music, Sasha’s Suds and Duds, and my crazy human friends for making this a great experience. I hope Mark got my best side!!
