Hee - gorgeous series, but it doesnt' seem to have done them much good!

The haughty look in the bottom shot is the winner though - "what on earth does that stupid human think they're trying to do with that camera?"

(You should put this in Tell Me a Story, btw)

Thanks G – it does tell a story doesn't it.

I love the bottom shot too – such a couple of poseurs.

Love the bottom one. :)

I can imagine the conversation went a little like this....

Rear cat "So what's the plan then?"

Front cat "Ok, I'll sit here like a statue staring at the human, while you creep slowly up behind me so he can't see you. Then when I say go, you leap out, grab the camera, and run!!"

and are you now claiming your Mum invented the sieve?

Sprocket says:

Bottom photo just needs one little pigeon feather to be hanging from the front cat's mouth :-)

D – Don't be silly. But she did invent mash with carrots mushed into it.

Love the bottom shot ..... and I think 540 has it sussed .....

Sprocket says:

I think 540 has it sussed too.

I just dread to think what sort of photos they'll be taking if they grab the phonecam for their own devious usage.

Sprocket says:

Thanks Maggie – just read it and love it to pieces.

Dhamaka says:

no she didn't, we've had this conversation before. It's a variation on a traditional Dutch farmer's dish :P

Heh, great sequence & very fine cats.
Rear cat to front cat "Stop sulking, how was I to know it could fly?"

paintist says:

what hidegard said.....front cat has a miffed expression, cat to the rear has a very sly smile,.. a really cool pic :-)

Just noticed you've got some stipas there - don't know if you have cat grass as well but if not, you might consider an indoor winter crop. Many soft grasses that cats use to self-medicate die back in winter & they start on the ornamentals....
Arnold has twice made his stomach bleed by eating then throwing up stipa, once needing gut-protecting treatment, daft beast. (The 2nd time provided the diagnostic link, BTW, I'm not so cruel I'd let him do it twice on purpose.)
