Snowy Sunday

A snowy day is a perfect moment for Cashew, our Siberian Forest Cat. A short bit of play in the snow for this mighty hunter!

I think I mentioned on this past iPhone Friday about which one is the best camera… Another part of the photography equation is the opportunity presented by the moment, which today demonstrated beautifully. Overnight we had a lovely bit of snowfall. After clearing our driveway, I came inside and let the dogs out into the backyard, as they love playing in the snow.

Of course, that meant that one of our cats, Cashew, was rather dissatisfied. He let me know by making his snow noises, which are interesting vocalizations of excitement and displeasure at the same time.

So this happened…

The Mighty Hunter

Cashew loves the snow; he is a Siberian Forest Cat, after all, and he knows his preferred environment. He actually paws at the snow to see if there is any possible snack and is ready to pounce!

I let him have his fun for a little while, before picking him up and bringing him back inside. As we do have larger carnivores in our area, it is not safe for even a Siberian to be outside for too long.

Khürt’s 52 Week Smartphone Challenge – Week 7 – Love Story

A face filled with love…

In between my travels, I want to give another quick shout out to the 52 Week Smartphone Challenge by Khürt Williams. The theme for week 7 is ‘Love Story’: “Make us feel the love in this week’s photo. Tell a love story in one image.”

The Napoleon of Crime

Luckily, I have a new friend at home , who is filled to the brim with mischief, as Cashew, our Siberian Forest cat, often up to no good! But then, you look at this face, and how can you not feel the love?
