It’s time to feature more cats and I’ve had the opportunity to photograph some beauties.  Meet Sophie, she was adopted earlier this year from King Street Cats.

This session was focused mostly on Sophie as Sylvester had his portrait session a few years ago.  He looked handsome as ever (he was also adopted from King Street Cats over 10 years ago)!

Photographing Bailey and Oakley was a lot of fun. These adorable yorki-poos (a mix of Yorkshire Terrier and Poodle) are very sweet and have tons of personality!

Hi, I’m Hunter.

You may recognize me from the cover of novadog magazine:

For all you bored dogs at home, I thought I’d demonstrate a few of my favorite interactive toys.  I am 9 years old after all, and I’ve accumulated quite a collection.  Of course, it helps that my mom is the owner of Fur-Get Me Not and she carries all these toys in her store.

First, we’ll start off with a great chew toy, the Bouncy Bone.  I like this one because of the “gnawhide rings” that are attached on the sides.  When I’m done, mom replaces them and it’s like a new chew all over again.

This one is fun because it makes a crunchy noise.  It’s called a Bottle Buddy and it has an empty water bottle inside.  Sometimes I need a break from the squeaky toys and this adds just the right variety!

This turtle is one of my favorites.  It’s an Egg Baby and I have several of them at home in many styles including the hedgehog and the alligator.  What I love about this toy is the game of pulling out what’s inside – 3 squeaky eggs.  I respect the turtle and keep him in one piece because the only thing on my mind is getting to the eggs inside.  Once I pull them out, mom stuffs them back in and the game begins all over again.  I’ve had this particular egg baby for over 3 years, so it’s safe to say it’s the most respected plush toy in my home.

And now I’ll demonstrate some of the toys that incorporate treats.  This is called a Buster Cube, another oldie but goodie in my house.  I’ve had this since I was a puppy.  Mom fills it with a cup of kibble and I have a grand time rolling it around to get the kibble out.  This is a great way to work out while I eat my breakfast and dinner.

This one is a bit more advanced.  Rolling it doesn’t work.  Picking it up doesn’t work.  I know there is a way to get the treats out and I think it has something to do with the rope – but I’m still working on it.  I haven’t quite mastered this one but if anyone figures it out before I do, please post it in the comments!
