July Outtakes

July 25, 2014 By: Sparkle Cat48 Comments

It’s time to show off the lesser photos my human took of us cats! I hope you enjoy looking at them more than we enjoyed (or didn’t) posing for them!

My human... ruining naps for Binga since 2000!

My human wanted Binga to pose for a “funny” photo illustrating the aftermath of Cat World Domination Day. Binga was not amused by this particular umbrella placement.

She earned that raspberry and then some!

Here I am, posing with some toys and treats I was not allowed to play with or eat. If you look closely, you can see exactly what I thought of that.

Usually I try for more subtle expressions of disdain

I have no idea what inspired my human to click the camera’s shutter button right that very moment. It takes bad timing to a whole ’nother level.

It was inevitable

Were you wondering how come Binga didn’t photobomb me when I was reviewing my pal Bailey’s book? Well, surprise! She actually did.

This should get an award for Worst Photo Ever

Here is another “What was my human thinking?” photo.

The camera can bring out your most secret thoughts

Lastly, this photo is from a session of closeups where my human was trying to capture that sweet, angelic look I have. This one was not it.

Note: some of you know, and some of you don’t… if you move your cursor over the photos, you will see a secret message. Many of you smart phone users will see them too if you tap on the picture and keep your finger held down. These secret messages are hidden in photos in nearly every post I write!

    You poor kitties. Your human managed some non-purrfect pictures. What was she thinking with that umbrella on Binga’s head?! Binga’s photo bomb isn’t too bad, except for your expression. Sparkle, you have great expressions for every situation.

    Ah well, our humans do have their failings, don’t they! And if we can generously provide them with a little amusement, then why not, as long as it doesn’t happen too often.
