Uncooperative Tongue

December 5, 2020 By: Summer Samba22 Comments

While posing with the Trader Joe's Cat Advent Calendar, Summer's tongue proved to be exceedingly uncooperative.

During my Trader Joe’s Cat Advent Calendar photo shoot, my human was trying to get one photo in particular. She wanted me with my tongue out. And she got it. You can see the photo in the blog post.

I really did like those treats, which made it easy to get tongue photos… just mostly not usable ones! Can I help it if my tongue was uncooperative? You can see a few of the bloopers below. This is not all of them, just the best of the worst.

This was sort of a mid-tongue out capture. Mostly I just look like a dork.

This one was close, but my human knew I could do better. So she kept snapping.

I bet you can’t guess what I’m looking up at! Yep, a treat from the advent calendar.

And when my human was taking too long to hand out the treats, she would get just a tiny raspberry.

    We think that tongue is perfectly cooperative it is Mom being so slow with the treats that is the problem. They look super tasty and we better get some too

    If you were to plan this right, you could get a lot
    of extra treats while trying for the perfect photo.
    You look good anyway.

    These are all silly uncooperative tongue pix. Sometimes dad will point at me and laugh and go for his phone because my tongue is stuck out a little and I don’t realize it. Just before he taps the camera app I reel it in and walk away laughing.

    Yup! It’s hard to do a good tongue pic when treats are there for the taking 😉 MOL!
