A Furry & Feathery Merry Christmas

DSCF2550
Spunk helping Laurie wrap presents.

 

I photographed all the animals Christmas Eve, trying to get them to have a “Merry Christmas” look about them. The birds and Spunk were more than willing participants, Diné was okay with it as long as she didn’t have to get off the heater vent under the bed, but Rosencrantz and Guldenstern took quite a bit of coaxing. Blue, the Boa, opted out because she is getting ready to shed — she has milky-blue eyes and she’s a bit cranky — it’s best to leave a 7 foot long boa constrictor alone when she doesn’t want to be photographed.

“Standing here lonely, like a broken cat! Serving my time, doin’ the best I can. Walls and glass they surround me. All I want is some sympathy…” I’m just “Inside looking Out.” Pleas let me out!
