Handshake Kitty

Dennis

The image above is some months old and in bad quality but it shows how Shyna gives me a handshake. This is just another trick I tought her. I usually say “Give me five” in German, while showing my hand vertical near her paws, and then she does give me her paws. She also knows how to give paw in another variant but then I show my flat opened hand horizontal. It works in different ways too as you can see on the image. It´s pretty cute. It´s some time ago when I taught her how to do this but … Continue reading Handshake Kitty

It´s Not Bad To Teach Your Cat Tricks

Dennis

I have read in many cat forums and the general opinion seems to be that it is not ok to teach a cat tricks. Is it really not good to teach a cat tricks? In this article you will read my opinion. If you ask me and if you want my honest answer,… Don´t listen to the jabbering you can find in all the cat forums where people mean they would be experts. Especially house cats need activity. Remember they have a small areal and they can´t do things they would otherwise do outside, like hunting for example. Any kind … Continue reading It´s Not Bad To Teach Your Cat Tricks

Is There Something Above You?

Dennis

It looks so funny if Shyna plays the meerkat. I taught her how to do this (after I saw her doing this the first time) but the only problem is that she seems to like this now. On the image above, you can see her playing the meerkat again but this time accidentally. I point with my finger in the air if I want her to show the meerkat but the signal for “sit” is similar but if I want her to sit, I point my finger lower. On the image above I actually wanted her to sit down, as … Continue reading Is There Something Above You?

Wounded Guitar

Dennis

I did talk about the guitar plaster already but the image above shows some of the wounds of my guitar. I do really like how much details my “abandoned” and cheap Medion camera can show. For this price it is really not a bad camera. The camera has something like a macro mode. You still can´t compare it with professional cameras or macro lenses but as said, for a cheap digital camera it is not too bad. Sometimes you can shoot great close up images with the camera.

My Guitar Needed A Medic

Dennis

This is a close up shot of a plaster on my guitar. This guitar has a wound, ok in fact not only one wound but I did put a plaster on the deepest and ugliest wound. Right, it does look shabby but that is intended. But my real intention was to make the guitar safe to play as there were splinter of wood on the damaged spot. The plaster makes the guitar look shabby and safe to play. I like it and this is ok until I found another good sticker. Continue reading My Guitar Needed A Medic
