Mancat Monday

On Friday I posted an absolutely adorable picture of Leo on the Celestial Skyway. I couldn't believe he never work up and I got several good shots of him! You see, it's not always so easy... He can hear a camera open anywhere in the house and will immediately stop doing whatever cute thing he's doing and try to look as dull as possible...
Take this series for instance!

Aww, what a cute sleeping position! The tail neatly draped over the side, the feet, toe floof and all, sticking out over the edge. I have to get this shot!



What I did not see, which, no doubt, you noticed in the top picture.. That one eyelid starting to open! Oh the glare! What my gramma used to call giving someone 'the hairy eyeball' and boy howdy is he giving it to me!

Before the camera can recover and take the next picture, and again, I did not even see this happening until the flash had left the camera, he was up, out of the cute position and thinking about getting all the way down! Just that fast, he'd moved! In the nanosecond between takes, he's gone from utterly cute to ticked off vulture.




Even though he looked like he was thinking about getting down in the second shot, he stayed up there at least. I think he knew he'd spoiled the picture and there was no reason to abandon his comfy spot. He knew I'd give up and he could go back to sleep, un-bothered, un-flashied, and un-photographed!

Leo: Nothing to see her, just plain ol' boring cat loaf. No toes or tail. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Buh-bye now!

I cannot keep doing those silly pictures on your blog Annie. I have tried many times and none of them are working for me.
