Independence Day Modeling Session

July 4, 2019 By: Summer Samba35 Comments

somali cat getting ready for Independence Day modeling session

My human had a lot of Fourth of July props sitting around from prior years. She figured that she had two choices: get rid of them, or use them for a photo shoot. So here I am, doing an Independence Day modeling session.

There are a couple of new things here, thanks to my breeder, who gifted me with some selfie props.

I did some poses with the tiny Uncle Sam hat on. But to be really honest, I never look all that great in these tiny hats. I don’t mind wearing them all that much, but they’re not really comfortable, and I’m not good at faking nice looks.

The ones without the hat came out much better!

So how do you think I did?

    Mom saw a tiny stripey hat at the store that she almost bought me (I’m so-o glad she didn’t!). Yeah, you don’t look thrilled wearing yours, but it is still cute on you. I hope you and your momma had a nice holiday. I heard the booms outside, but wasn’t interested in watching them this year. I watched for wayward mousies on my patio instead. Winks.

    I thought “Calendar” as soon as I saw
    the first picture. Great props. That collar
    is really nice too. Definitely one of these
    should be in the next calendar. You look
    great!
