Thank you, Aunt Cindy, for helping mom pick out new scarves for me and Savannah at Paw Prints on the Canal!  We LOVE them!  Do you think this one makes my eyes look more blue?  To all of my cat and dog friends….check out Cindy’s scarves here:   https://www.facebook.com/cindyloudgscarves

Today would have been my dad’s 100th birthday.  He was born 4/30/1915.  I recall that dad enjoyed taking a mid-day nap on the weekends from time to time.  Being the little instigator that I was, I would go over and poke him and ask, “Dad, are you sleeping?”  He would always respond, “No, not sleeping, just resting my eyes.”  If dad was “resting his eyes” and I tickled the bottom of his feet, he would let out a scream that the whole neighborhood could hear.   That’s what I think Brewster is doing in this photo… sitting in the window and just resting his eyes.  I bet if I poked him, he would bounce right up and be ready for playtime.  I don’t think he would mind if I tickled his paws, either.  Dad would have loved Brewster.

I am in LOVE with this little guy’s chubby cheeks!  How can you resist this adorable face?  This kitty was entered in the Household Pet category at the Lehigh Valley Cat Club show over the weekend.  So cute!

When I read the location of this year’s Lehigh Valley Cat Club show, I knew that candid photos would be a challenge.  The ballroom in the hotel where the show is held is very poorly lit.  Basically the lighting inside is just a few chandeliers and the lights above the judging tables.  Ugh!  Determined to see some gorgeous cats (and bring home new catnip toys for Brewster and Savannah), I went anyway and decided to photograph what I could and see what happened.  I had to shoot at ISO 6400 and f/2.8 to get any shots with my Canon 135mm lens, but it was fun and I do have some photos that I love, like this one!  (Dear Lehigh Valley Cat Club, please move to a different location next year!)
