The boys have favorite places to sleep. Dougy prefers a carrier next to the recliner. It has a towel in it and it is secure and cozy. Andy prefers the washing machine lid or inside the dryer, if I leave the door open.
Andy in his dryer nest.
Of course, a black cat in a white interior makes for a photographic nightmare, but I got something in the camera for you, and that was it!
=((^+^)=
Here is an older photo of Andy in the dryer that is much clearer.
Aww! And if he gets to the dryer at the right time, it’s still warm.
This is true, and he likes to sleep inside the dryer after it’s been used, presumably, in part, for that reason.
Good photo of contrasts in color! Hope Andy isn’t in for a rude surprise at some point. You would have to rename him “Lint”
“Lint” — LOL! After having one cat that slept in the dryer, and, now, as second one, I am in the habit of verifying no cat’s in the dryer before I use it.
I bow to your photographic talent. The fact that you got facial features is truly amazing. I have deleted more pictures of black blobs then I care to remember. 🙂
Barely…! Thanks!
I’ve tried getting Boris in the dryer, (his spot) and they never come out.
I’ve taken better ones of Andy there and also of the late great Louie, another of my cats that loved the dryer.
Beautiful video.
Thanks. Louie was a wonderful companion and cat and he lived with me such a short time. (Twenty-two months…) I hope they were the best 22 months of his life because he gave me so much joy. I still cry when I watch that video.
I’m sure they were. 🙂
We can only try.
Everyone should have a cat or two just to show us WE are. George is currently making the rounds of the windows all around the house. He will spend a few days there and then move on to the next. One window has a broken blind and won’t go up and he never stops pestering me to open it.
Cats! I can visualize George doing that! (You know there’s a cat in the household if there’s at least one window with nasty broken blinds! Andy ruined the ones in my bathroom. LOL!)
George is King of the Realm, he thinks. The dog ignores him and the bird and George have a kind of peace.
Of course George is! Smart dog and clever bird, too! The Peaceable Kingdom involves kissing a little kitty butt!
Laughing a lot! Yes, you are oh so right. And as for people the same it is. I’m just not good at kissing part though.
Kisss it, sniff it: It makes no difference to the cat!
sweet and looks very comfortable in there.
He loves it! It’s relatively safe from his brother and me and (since I know he likes to sleep there) there is a nice soft worn out t-shirt to sleep on.
What a place…….
Mine love the laundry,it’s always a mystery to me
Maybe they associate the smell with us — you know, the beloved ones that opens the cans and buy the wand toys!
nice! im about to post my guy too haha
Just “followed” you — you are an inspiring photographer! Glad you commented because I now know about you. Anyway, I’m looking forward to your guy. Kitty? Dog? Never mind! From what I saw in your blog, it will be great!
haha. cat, Player
He’s in the latest post yawning.
thanks though. I wish this blog would help me get more business haha.
You have a great eye, from what I wsaw, and I’d think it would get you more business if more people viewed it. There are people on WordPress who can help you increase your viewership for business, though I don’t have any names. I just know I’ve seen their blogs at some time in the past. Anyway, good luck! Your portraits are uniquely yours, I think. None of that “just posed” stuff. You seem to have a talent for pulling out your subjects’ personalities, noi easy job!
Thanks!
I really needed that. Self-affirmation isn’t easy to achieve but for you to say that means you actually grasped that.
Please let me know if you every do come across their page. I need a spike in gigs. I want to reach out and get the customers that miss my blog.

Just looking through some of your recent posts – the NJ family shoot is tremendous! – it is self-evident to me you are really good at what you do. I see photos like that. It’s sort of formal yet very personal (the boys wrestling each other on one side in that last photo). I have no doubt that family will love those memories for a life time!
They’re such sweethearts!
I bought many a bale of hay to fling around my garden, but I had to leave the last few for my cat, she decided that was her place to sleep.
LOL! Reminds me of the late great Woody, one of my neighbor’s cats. He was a large tabby, a really personable cat that loved to spend his days in our backyard “bird watching” from the patio and just hanging. Like all cats, whatever I was doing, he had to be there to check it out. He made putting a netting over a fruit tree a challenge because he kept attacking some dried leaves caught in it from the previous year! I finally got it over the tree, but it took half an hour instead of a few minutes. Then, when I raked the autumn leaves, he perched on top of the pile, refusing to move when I started to fill trash bags with the leaves until he was on a column of leaves, the last place on the yard where there were any. I eventually had to just move him because he refused to give up his perch!He was a great cat, and I know that that exposure to a really sweet kitty predisposed me to getting my own cats years later. In fact, the late Louie the ginger cat was a ginger version of the grey Woody.
It sounds like Woody was quite a character!
That he was! He was mean to his sister (a beautiful little calico named Callie) but very devoted to his humans. He was more dog-like than any cat I ever met.
