Oh Carolyn!!! This may be your best cat shot yet! The reflection, perspective, composition... I just love it!!!!!!!!!!!! #10058Carolyn M. Fletcher October 01, 2002
Thanks, Kathleen!! She does this a lot, and I have been trying to sneak up on her for a long time. Finally managed to get a couple shots yesterday and this was the best of them, I thought. #16213Dave B. Ventimiglia October 01, 2002
That's hilarious - the title you gave it makes it 10x more funny too :) #16221Lianne E. Cook October 01, 2002
LOL! I don't think i've seen all your cat shots but this is definitely my favorite one! you outta do a book ;o) #16225Damian P. Gadal October 01, 2002
Great Carolyn! #16226Carolyn M. Fletcher October 01, 2002
Thanks you all! Appreciate the comments.Linda Slater October 01, 2002
I agree to evrything above this is a great shot Carolyn. #16247Carolyn M. Fletcher October 01, 2002
Thanks, Linda..Love the comments! #16261Heather K. McFarland October 02, 2002
Wondeful and whimsical Carolyn. I love it! #16363Carolyn M. Fletcher October 03, 2002
Thanks, Heather. The poor girl is going to be out of commission for a day or two. She has to go to the vet and get spayed... #16384Donna R. Moratelli October 04, 2002
GRRREAT PICTURE Carolyn!!!! #16465Carolyn M. Fletcher October 04, 2002
Thanks, my dear..She is not a happy camper today. Still waking up from the anesthetic..Still had the energy to give me a "bath", though.. #16466Donna R. Moratelli October 04, 2002
OH, the poor thing. I hope she's OK> She'll thank you later on in life by being a mellower companion! #16507Carolyn M. Fletcher October 04, 2002
Now she's tearing at her stitches so I had to go get her one of those collars to keep her from biting..Boo came unglued when he saw her in the collar. Doesn't recognize her I guess, so he's locked in the den and her in the living room so I can watch her..Oh joy..this is gonna be fun.. #16510Bob Fowler October 07, 2002
Hi Carolyn,I'm a "cat person" and always enjoy a good, unusual cat photo. I like your choice of camera position. Had you shot this from a higher angle, you would have lost a lot of the subtle effect you've captured so well, the stretched form of the cat's body. The high aspect ratio crop really works well in this shot. Your placement of the window sill on the diagonal draws the eye right to the cat. Excellent work! #16743
Carolyn M. Fletcher October 07, 2002
Thanks, Bob!! From one cat person to another, they are so much fun! Glad you like the shot! #16748Donna R. Moratelli October 07, 2002
Bob, Doen't she look like mine? #16757Bob Fowler October 07, 2002
Donna... Sure, other than the fact that your cat weighs 18 pounds... Hehehehehe
She actually looks a lot like my Chessie... #16775

I've always wondered if the radar-dish collars cause animals to pick-up TV & Radio transmissions... #16811Carolyn M. Fletcher October 08, 2002
You think? Maybe that's why they are purring the theme from the Sopranos! #16813Donna R. Moratelli October 08, 2002
Carolyn, That's possible... It may be why my cat has been threatening to whack me if I don't give him extra cans of food... Bob, He was 20 pounds the last time that I weighed him.(common markings)duh... .Damian, I have heard stories that people with braces can pick up radio sigals so if that is true, why not the collars? Great shot BTW, Carolyn. How's it going with the new stuff?Bob Fowler October 08, 2002
20 pounds? Does your cat go "Moooo".... #16858Damian P. Gadal October 08, 2002
LOL - I should teach my cat that one... He's over 20 pounds. #16862Donna R. Moratelli October 08, 2002
Good for you Damian. At least we know how to take care of of the basic needS of our Pets. Some breeds are hearty and need food once in a while. Bob, Your six cats must weigh 10 pounds all put together. Do you cats go SQUEEEEEEEK?... #16869Bob Fowler October 08, 2002
Awww, Donna, You KNOW that the 5 persians have at LEAST 20 pounds of just HAIR! :-) #16871Donna R. Moratelli October 08, 2002
Bob, You saw me pick up Tut with my pinky finger and he is the biggest and strongest. Got ya! #16878Bob Fowler October 08, 2002
Bzzzzt! Tut weighs 7 pounds, Trinket weighs 10, Chesapeake weighs 13, Guinevere weighs 7.5, Hershey weighs 6.5, and Cassandra weighs about 4. Keep in mind, Tut is a very old and somewhat frail kitty... #16881Donna R. Moratelli October 09, 2002
Carolyn, Sorry about all of this small talk on your space! #16930Carolyn M. Fletcher October 09, 2002
Keep it up! I'm loving it.. #16933Donna R. Moratelli October 09, 2002
Hey Bob, I think that scale of yours is wrong. Carolyn, What are your thoughts on raising a healthy cat. How big was Mr.Piggy. He was a cat, not a mouse!!Right??? #16935Carolyn M. Fletcher October 09, 2002
Mr. Piggy was a bubba when we got him! He was huge!!! After he got old, he lost a whole lot of weight. Boo is probably about 12 pounds, and Ally is maybe 2 or 3..She's still a tiny tot. My cats usually are on the heavy side. #16937Marie-H RALETZ May 26, 2019
Hello, Carolyn!Carolyn M. Fletcher May 26, 2019
Whatever she was looking for, she didn't find it, she's still looking up there..When she gets taller, maybe she will let me know what she finds...not that there wouldn't be dust or even an occasional fly up there..anything's possible.. #19196Marie-H RALETZ May 26, 2019
Yes, sure!!! Please keep me informed...lol #19203Jeff Dykes May 26, 2019

Carolyn, We have to figure out a way that you can make some cash at this! You are getting better and better and better. The angles and expressions are awsome! I can't wait to see what you come up with next! I am sooooo proud of you..Remember that first win with the shadow? Look how far you have come.. #22660Carolyn M. Fletcher May 26, 2019
Sure,heck, pay me! haha.. Who cares? I just do it for the love of it and to talk to all you great people!! Donna, I get inspiration from you guys. Remember that first cat shadow was an idea I got from a shadow picture of yours. So copy-catting works! haha.. #22669Shelley Sanders May 26, 2019

Carolyn ~ So much fun finding this in the "by category (cats)" gallery area...Cute photo with a very cool reflection, and you all had quite a chat about "le chat" back then! :-) Good luck this week on your entries! #230948Carolyn M. Fletcher October 13, 2003
Thanks Mary. That was Ally when she was smaller. She still does that almost every day. #230951Ellen L. Zaslaw June 06, 2004
Wonderful ! As are many of your gallery ! #579752Carolyn M. Fletcher June 06, 2004
Thanks Ellen!! I appreciate that!!! #579792jean ray October 10, 2004
This is such a wonderful shot, I can't believe it wasn't a winner! It certainly is in my book! But, that doesn't win you any cool prizes! I've been looking at your gallery and really enjoy your work. #833601Carolyn M. Fletcher October 10, 2004
Thanks Jean. You really went back a ways to dig this one out. #833620Laura Clay-Ballard May 08, 2005
so typical of a kitty cat.Carolyn M. Fletcher May 08, 2005
Thanks Laura. I would have put it back through for this month's theme, but it's such low resolution, I decided I better not. This was shot with my old 1.6 MP camera. (I didn't know any better). #1330497Jill Odice January 29, 2006
This is so sweet! #2353956Mary E. Heinz September 03, 2007
Carolyn, this is so neat...is it all window light/ beautiful light...just darling ... #4742431Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
