I took this photo of our cat Esme about a year ago. She looks a lot like my parents’ new cat, don’t you think?

Photo of the Day: Introducing Mr. Toby

A sweet, rambunctious kitten adopted my parents last week, and I’m beyond excited about it! Toby is so playful and loving – he’s quickly becoming a member of the family. He’s always on the move – so catching a photo of him was a challenge.

My husband and I met a new friend on our walk a few nights ago – a very friendly, affectionate cat.

Photo of the Day: In Remembrance of Mr. Miles

My sister had to put her sweet cat of fourteen years to sleep yesterday. I’m not being biased when I say he was the sweetest cat I’ve ever know. I don’t even say that about my own cats. It’s so hard to lose a pet, especially when you have to make the decision about what time is best for them. Mr. Miles Smiles…you’ll be dearly missed by the entire family.

I’m dedicating today’s photo to my cousin Maryanne, the biggest fan of cats I know. I shot this photo earlier this evening as the light streamed in our kitchen window. The only editing I did was very minor cropping. I couldn’t be happier with my luck getting this shot!

Photo of the day: Suspicious Kitty

On February 7, 2013February 7, 2013 By LindyIn photography3 Comments

This little kitty was watching me very apprehensively as I approached my apartment stairs a couple of days ago. Unfortunately it was getting dark and I only had a moment to snap the photo before he took off, so it’s a bit grainy.

Today’s photo is my favorite subject – my cat, Esme!

Project 52 Week 46: Family of Pets

On November 25, 2012 By LindyIn family, photography1 Comment

Like many of you, I’ve had a lot of family time over the last few days. Tomorrow is the start of something I’m incredibly thankful for: the opportunity to go on a mission trip to Haiti. Until I return with some [hopefully] moving stories and photos, here are some shots of family pets I took at Thanksgiving.

My in-laws’ cat Buddy wanted to be the centerpiece (and center of attention) on the dining room table.

Katie (and Kendell, not shown) had a great time frolicking outside.

Big surprise, my cat Esme also thinks she owns the place.

Project 52 Week 33: Miles-Smiles

On August 27, 2012 By LindyIn photography3 Comments

My second-favorite cat, behind my beloved Esme, is my sister’s cat Miles. I like to call him Miles-Smiles. What I love about him is that he just sits and stares at you while you snap his photo; he isn’t a blur like Esme. (But I guess he is about 12 years older than her.) Should I have posted a more traditional head-on shot, or do you like this unique crop?
