Festive Flashback Outtakes

November 22, 2019 By: Summer Samba32 Comments

close up of Somali cat

Since we are (already!) closing in on the end of November, I was wondering what I was doing around this time last year. I was pretty busy, it turns out, and there were quite a few outtakes to be had. The above photo wasn’t one of them, of course. But everything else you see here is something that probably shouldn’t have seen the light of day.

Outtakes that include my human’s hand in them are getting to be classics! Here’s one of them. Even though it would have been easy to crop out the hand, who needs a photo of me looking off camera with my treat face?

somali cat a little annoyed by santa hat

Ugh, I remember that hat! My human and I tried it several different ways on my head. I’m not 100% positive, but I think we may have wound up keeping the scarf and ditching the hat altogether.

This was a rather random shot. I did like that chalet scratcher though. It’s one of those Target limited editions. Sadly we are not getting any of the new editions anymore because my human says there are already too many here. And unlike other cats I’ve heard about, nobody here destroys them (nope, even Binga didn’t!).

You might say this photo is my commentary on all the previous pictures.

And once again, we’ve reached the end of these festive flashback outtakes! I hope you enjoyed them!

    What good outtakes – I love the Santa hat – but totally understand the aggravation of it

    What are those cookies in that “end” shot? Axing for a furrend. I don’t see why the chalet pic is an outtake. TW would be thrilled to take a pic of me walking that’s in focus.

    We didn’t get a new Target scratcher this year either. I wasn’t really crazy about any of them either.

    Heck yes! I love those! Um, where’s that bristly cat prop? The one who showed up uninvited a few times. Hopefully he will show up in October next year. 🙂
