My kitties are my kids. With how active we are, and with how much we love to travel, cats are the perfect companion, as they can survive a few days alone with only an ample supply of food and water and a clean litter box. We don’t like to leave them behind, but we have the freedom to do so. And they’re all the more lovey when we return.
They’re also the perfect photography subjects.
I love shooting landscapes and anime conventions, but I also spend a lot of time on my computer at home editing photos. And amidst the routine button presses and artistic tweaks, I’m inevitably distracted. While I can usually remain rather focused, I have found our sweet (evil) Mochi has the power to draw my attention with her deceiving cuteness.
This week’s double challenge, for once, was pretty straightforward! The first is amazingly appropriate: relax. With the holidays fast approaching – shopping, cooking, photo gifts, and Christmas cards – this is a busy time of year. Add on top of that the fact that I’ve been up to my eyeballs in Kumoricon photos with their own deadlines, and you can bet that candle’s burning at both ends. And that’s all within the confines of the limited schedule additional holiday travel affords.
In short: I’ve been busy! So a reminder to relax is in order.
The second prompt is “one, two, three,” encouraging posts pertaining to threes.
Therefore, I am happy to present to you: three very relaxed kitties.
I seem to be on a cat streak with my posts as of late.. but can you blame me? They’re so photogenic! Both real and virtual, I love the little fuzzballs through and through; I never tire of their entertaining, quirky ways.
Our little family was broken last year when we had to say goodbye to our sweet Zoe, a maine coon/tabby mix who brightened my home for nearly half my life. Now it is healing with the addition of a new terror on four paws… Meet Mochi!
