Remember, last Wednesday, I shared a series of nice, impromptu portraits from a therapy cat visit? Well, sometimes things don’t always work out that beautifully. In fact, just a few days later, when I visited one of my regular hospitals, it was the exact opposite! I was not feeling cooperative at all, and it was an effort for my human to get just one good shot. So I’m sharing the outtake edition of my portraits today. My human even left the treat crumbs on my nose and didn’t erase them, like she normally would.
This particular photo session happened after the visit. And I kept moving and making weird faces.
I kept finding things to look at that did not involve me facing forward.
Sometimes I stuck my tongue out too.
My human kept waving treats around to get my attention, which did not always work the way she wanted it to.
Lots of treats were consumed! Eventually I settled down and tried to cooperate.
And when I did, my human messed up! I have no idea how she got a motion blur for the background and the focus on me was halfway decent. Anyhow, the photo that went with last week’s post was the only good one from that session.

Funny and adorable outtakes, Summer!
Summer, you look so cute with your tongue peeking out of your mouth!
We think you just wanted treats and didn’t cooperate with your human on purpose! MOL!

The way petcretary takes pictures, I think all of yours are meretricious!
Everyone loves your outtakes, and you do always have the best ones.
Thank you for the work you do bringing comfort to those in difficult times. Thanks for the laugh this morning as I’m seeing your funny pictures!
Your human is WAY more patent than my human. Mine gives up.

Seriously, Summer, we love your outtakes, which are so much fun. I have your outtake calendar at work, and it’s a smile-inducer when I’m having a less than stellar day. 🙂
That chair makes a pawsome backdrop, though! Funny faces add to a foto cos it shows you have kittenality.
We always luff the tongue shots.
Your outtakes are simply fabulous to us.
Everyone is allowed an off day now and then. Even professionals like you! But if you ask me, the pictures all look great so really, even on your off days you’re a pro all the way. PURRS
You don’t always have to be cooperative, Summer! I love the treat crumbs on your nose 🙂
Summer, any blep photo of you is priceless!
Sometimes a cat just doesn’t feel like being photographed, right, Summer?
Your human does a great job and takes amazing photos ! Even your outtakes are good photos ! Purrs
Oh, you spunky sweet girl! We love your outtakes. We think those are some of the best photos you share and thank you for letting our Mom know she isn’t the only one who erases crumbs from our noses in photos we share.
You look super adorable with your head tilted up and your little tongue hanging out , Summer!
the critters in the cottage xo
Oh but you’re tongue out look is the cutest! My human has many a photo mishap when trying to take photos of me. She has lots of lighting issues. And she often snaps the camera button right when I have my tongue out! Tee hee hee!
Not everyone is as pretty as you Summer. 😉 Love the little bit of tongue poking out.
lookin’ good Summer!
We can’t always be picture ready.
Summer, those are like 99.8% of our photos! We hardly ever cooperate.
Amazing toe floof!
I love your raspberries. And even your outtakes are adorable.
sometimes you just have to take what you can get 🙂
Ahhh, morning laughter is the best! Mom loves your pictures. You were just being a cat and playing around. It happens. Your expressions are super funny and priceless. Purrs
Summer, even your outtakes are great.
Summer you are adorable in EVERY SINGLE PHOTO! Love the one with your tongue out in anticipation of your treat! You simply do NOT take a “bad” photo……
Love, Teddy
Summer your outtakes and crumbs are better than my real-takes
Hugs madi your bfff
You outtakes were so good sweet Summer so maybe you should get some takeout treats!
The side views are perfectly good photos and the tongue out is definitely a keeper. 🙂
We all know how difficult it is to take great pics of kitties, Summer! Your human does a great job most of the time, and we really get a kick out of the outtakes!
Purrs,

We like these outtakes. It shows that sometimes a cat just wants to eat the treats without working for them.
Everycat has an off day 😉

Well said. Next time Binga will go. Right?
We end up wif a lotta outtakes too.
It’s hard being in the right mood for every session! Then your mommy goofs up. Mol.
