A cat named Booger

My friend's cat Booger. He had some kind of eye funk as a kitten and the name stuck with him.

This guy was fast, it was hard to get his attention yet keep him in the same place.

    A beautiful cat and a very nice job of capturing the shot.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Thanks everyone! I messed with converting to BW but it kind of lost something. I will have to do more photos of this guy sometime. The part that I think really helps with pets is a helper. My girlfriend helped get the cat into position and then get his attention to make him look one way or another. This is easy with a dog, but a cat is.....well like herding cats.:D

    Zerodog, I love the shots, I have several cat shots my self, but they're not really good at all.

    The second one is particularly wonderful. I'm with you, you don't want to convert that kitty to B&W. You'd lose the beautiful tones of chocolate. (Is that a Himalayan, or a seal point mix?) Siamese are gorgeous, those eyes are just beautiful.

    Great work! Love the cat's name, by the way.
    Please ignore my opinions! And if I ask for constructive criticism, please give it to me. I have really thick skin! :huh

    Not sure what kind of cat. He was just shaved though. He looks kind of like a lion or one of those creatures from a Dr. Seuss book.

    Beautiful photos of Booger. Lucky he doesn't have to go to school with the other kittys. He would be teased with a name like that :D

    A couple of very nice shots, Zerodog! Very well done.

    Your friend isn't the only one to name his cat, "Booger." My brother has, too. Not for some eye goop, but because my brother is just odd. eek7.gif
