Grooming


Grooming! It’s so funny when cats do it. They are basically acrobats and can reach every body region except behind the head, but that’s where the human hand is, well, handy. My little cousins grew up with dogs but when they saw my cat the first time, grooming herself, they really laughed and I said “This is funny and cute right?” and they smiled and nodded. They were surprised and said things like “How’s she doing it???” and “How’s this even possible???”. If you like, you can find more photos of my cat Shyna on my blog. Continue reading Grooming

My Cat And The Chair


My cat likes the PC chair. It’s a leather PC chair that I have to protect with a wool blanket because it already got some scratches. Since there is a wool blanked on it, Shyna stopped to destroy the chair, because… you know, why would somebody want to destroy the own belongings? We were able to make an agreement. If I use the chair, it’s mine. If I don’t use the chair, it’s hers. So, whenever I am not on the PC, she is sleeping on the chair with the wool blanked. Sometimes there is an easy solution to solve … Continue reading My Cat And The Chair

Scratch The Ears


Here is a funny photo that I shot some time ago when I noticed that my cat Shyna did scratch her ears. Cats always look funny when they groom themselves. I ruffle the fur on her ears sometimes too, and since I started this, she does at times come to me and demands it. I know that because she is basically showing her ears like “Hey there, can you please scratch a bit on my ears like you did yesterday?”. Cats will notice it if you have more skills other than opening cat food cans (laugh). I hope you laughed … Continue reading Scratch The Ears

Shyna Portrait


Today I shot a photo of my cat Shyna with my Tamron 70-300 lens. It’s usually the lens that I use when I try to take photos of birds outside, but I noticed several times that it also can be very well used to take portraits. My cat did sleep in her small basket and I thought it would make a great photo, but she noticed it and woke up, but I like the photo anyway. I applied one of the filters in Analog Efex Pro 2, you can get it bundled with other cool preset tools if you download … Continue reading Shyna Portrait

Too Friendly Black Cat


Here is cat photo that I shot during my hike five days ago. I walked through an area where people can rent small garden plots, these areas are very common in Germany. When you walk through these areas, it’s not uncommon that you will find cats on the path, because of course, people enjoy their free time in the garden not without their pets. In these areas it’s easy to find cats that roam around, or they find you. I saw the black cat near the shrubberies and it came to me. Not shy at all, almost like it asked … Continue reading Too Friendly Black Cat
