Photo Session With Teasel

I was asked today to share some photos of my beloved Teasel cat.
A photo of a similarly marked feline was posted on our local online 'magazine' to which I sometimes contribute essays and photos.
The featured cat was affectionately labeled a "Kentucky Tiger."
I responded with the comment that an exotic 'tiger' also lives with us, and the editor suggested I submit some photos.
I have taken dozens of photos of Teasel since she came to live with us in November, 2007; they are scattered through two photo programs on my PC.
Gathering the best and formatting them proved a frustrating venture [my photo folders need sorting and labeling] so I cornered my darling and began to try different camera settings, overhead light on, shutters behind the bed twitched open.
Always the best poses happen just before or after I press the button and the flash goes off.
Here are some of the better ones for those who love cats.
I finished with a collage of a few photos showing Teasel from kittenhood til now.

  5. I love those beautiful blue eyes. Scruffy's might seem yellow at first but actually they are quite orange.
