Feline Friday ! !

You ever wonder what goes through there minds when they're this peaceful looking?   "OH NO, NOT the CAMERA again ! ! !  Leave me be!"
               
I remember everytime I'd threaten the children with the camera, they'd give me that CHEEZY grin and call my bluff!   Here, though Kolohe and Kaui are actually sleeping, it looks like Kolohe is hiding from the camera.  They stay about as STILL as my grand daughter when it comes to posing for me.  Read NOT!

Feline Friday ... Chillaxin'

TGI FELINE FRIDAY  ! ! !

Here you will find none other than our own totally chilled out "Kolohe" chillaxin' for the evening.  He most resembles a ragdoll cat ... he truly does justice to our local hawaiian term "chillaxin" (combination of chilling and relaxing)  Kolohe (Hawaiian for Rascal) is totally at peace with the world, you think?

There are THREE other cats in the house, but he is the only male, and he KNOWS this mean he is KING ... you THINK?

Round Robin Photo Challenge: Obstruction

My precious ones!  The kitty basket was put under the coffee table as a sort of deterrent, kinda "outta sight, outta mind" in hopes of giving the kittens a LITTLE rest from the Precious One.  The kittens are at their best behaviour when Princess appears.  They are also very tolerant to her antics .. I mean, she just wants to LOVE KITTY!  The Precious one also moves a LOT!  Securing a "blur-free" photograph of her many times more than not, can be quite the challenge.  "Be still, for just one moment Precious, while Grandma turns on the camera" ... "NO NO don't move", " .. there we go ... wait hold still" ... "Don't squish kitty ... THERE!"  She had completely crawled in the basket with the kitties, when thankfully, her interest had shifted to see if she could get that camera from grandma!

It was awfully hard for GRANDMA to bend down and get a shot with kitties and baby hiding under the coffee table.  I managed, and at first I thought how cute, then I saw there was more cropped off than not and thought I'd get a better shot next time.  Most photographers know that NEXT TIME never happens, and I'm glad I didn't dispose of this shot ... how can you resist those eyes!  You think Kolohe (by the look of his ONE eye in the picture) was thinking "UGH, you cow, get off me!"??

Above is one of my favorite pictures of the cats ... of course what better way to get back at human mother than to keep her from her other passion ... COMPUTER TIME!
