Having Way Too Much Fun

July 19, 2017 By: Summer Samba47 Comments

Somali cat posing in Easter basket for photo shoot

Remember my silly photo shoot from a couple of weeks ago? My human found some cool fabric, so we took some for-real calendar shots. Did I ever say how much I love photo shoots? When my human started putting up the backdrop and lights for this one, I started running around and meowing! It took some time for me to settle down and sit still.

Of course I had to give the props my seal of approval.

I was not quite as enthusiastic about the Easter bunny. I didn’t realize I had to share the spotlight.

So we took some shots, and then I decided I would rather play than pose!

I confess, I was having way too much fun!

By this time, it was pretty obvious that the photo shoot was over. But we got some good shots at the beginning, so it was okay.

    I think the last photo is my fur-favorite, ’cause it shows your playful side. I would love to play with you Summer. And no, that faux bunny could never steal your spotlight! Maybe that bunny needs a little roughing up a bit! Tee hee hee. (blowing kisses)

      Summer, that “arched back” looks just like how you arched your back, when I met you in Portland in 2016, and got to pet you before I left!

    Hehe, the point “We do need to close the door because some other kitty will disturb the one doing a good job” sounds all to familiar with you, we guess.

    Oh, you’re like Kajsa and our clicker training. She starts meowing and running around a long time before we normally start, just to make sure that Mom won’t forget. By the time the training starts, she’s so crazy that she can’t focus. She’s running around, scratches the door (it’s closed because it’s not working when both cats attend at the same time) ….

    But after she got the first treats, she settles down and is able to concentrate, so Mom makes the first treats always with something involving running.
