One of the great joys of having a pet is the laughter that they bring to us. Whether we are laughing at them or with them they never hold a grudge. It seems they are almost always trying to entertain us. What pet owner doesn't have a picture of their beloved friend in some crazy situation or pose, stuck on their refrigerator door? And what better way to save those precious moments than with a great photo?
I photograph pets professionally, intentionally trying to create humorous images...but often it is the in-between moments that end up with those priceless expressions. Those un-expected antics...that bring an involuntary smile to me and have me showing everyone around the back of my camera saying "Hey! Check this one out...what a crack-up!".
Right now I live with two cats...one of them just can't resist any box. Put a box down and a moment later, out of nowhere...Pitsy is in the box! It doesn't matter what size box either...I have seen her in boxes that she can barely fit in...that she can't even get all of her paws down in...but hey...if it's a box then she's going to claim it!
Our other cat, Plucky, has his favorite place to be...on the lap of any one using a computer (luckily I am writing this at work or it would be much slower going and by the end I would be covered in cat fur)! No computer...he isn't interested...but sit down in front of a computer anywhere in the house...and you instantly have one very large feline purring contentedly between you and that keyboard. Every pet is an endless source of amusement, fun and laughter!
