Truffle At Sunset

We have Truffle attached to us all the time.  She is endearingly cute and sensitive.  But her “black” color makes it nearly impossible to get a good picture.  So here is one and a few notes about our dear “Truff”. Truffle tells time.  Every afternoon at 4:37 she starts begging me.  Her feeding time is [...]

Kitty inside the ….

April 23, 2009

Where is Truffle? I haven’t seen her for a long time? We need to make sure we find her and wake her up or she’ll keep us up all night… searching… searching… checking the normal places… oh oh…oh oh. Where did she hide? Hints: We’ve found pieces of black fabric around the living room over [...]

Truffle was climbing the screen in our 2nd story bathroom this morning when it gave and she fell out, sending Kathy into a frenzy. Both mommy and kitty are doing fine. 1 down, 8 to go…

The Photographer’s Kitten

January 14, 2009

There’s nothing like trying to work around a kitten skittering all over your equipment—light stands, backgrounds, wires—attacking anything that happens to catch her eye… tabs, labels, plugs. It’s all a game, and it’s all fair game at that. I wasn’t a working photographer when Widgit was a kitten, so this is uncharted territory. Can’t leave [...]

More fun with The Little One

January 3, 2009

I am again writing on the happenings with Truffle which is too much fun. We’ve had her just 2 weeks and it seems like forever. She is slowly learning our routines and teaching us her routines. When Mooshie waits every morning for her treats, now Truffle jumps up on the counter and waits for her [...]

It’s been a little more than a week since our Christmas Kitty arrived in our home, and as you would expect, it’s now her home and we live here at her pleasure. She and Moosh still aren’t best buds, but Moosh doesn’t run out of the room every time she gets bonked by a Truffle [...]

Kitties Together

December 23, 2008

This morning I got this photo of our 2 girls together. Ok, they were so busy eating that they wouldn’t look up for me. Yes, Mooshie is actually stretched over Truffle to eat. I don’t know why Truffle didn’t move but they are getting a little more used to each other. Of course, Truffle is [...]

Trouble With Truffle

December 18, 2008

We got our new 3½-month-old kitten home today. Her name is Truffle… kinda rhymes with trouble, which we can already see we’re in for. She likes to explore everything fully, but she won’t do it without company—namely, me, at the moment, since Kathy had meetings to go to. She’s my shadow for the time being. [...]
