I hope you enjoy my photos of cats as much as I enjoy scouting out photo ops and taking the pictures. But there are some shots that are difficult to capture. You probably know the ones I mean.<\/p>\nI hope you enjoy my photos of cats as much as I enjoy scouting out photo ops and taking the pictures. But there are some shots that are difficult to capture.

There are certain things cats do that are clever, cute, funny, entertaining, and maybe unique. A cat might occasionally leap after a humming bird in your yard, sneak a piece of chicken off your dinner plate, sleep in a particular position, wrestle with the dog, go nose-to-nose with your pet hamster, take a morsel of food from![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.matilijapress.com\/catscapades\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/LilyMoreSocks-e1560262428242-225x300.jpg\")
the dog\u2019s dish when no one\u2019s looking, or wrap herself up in a piece of newspaper or wrapping paper. You know what I mean. Your cat provides you with that once-in-a-lifetime shot, but you don\u2019t have your camera ready. You miss the shot.

Here, it\u2019s Lily carrying her toys in her mouth. She does it all the time. I put them away and she brings them back out and spreads them around the house. She brings me my slipper socks (cozy sock) in the morning to my office. She has even been known to drag a t-shirt off the bed into the hallway. She\u2019s been engaging in this cute activity for nearly 10 years, but it is a real challenge to get a photo of her doing it. I still don\u2019t have a good shot with good lighting, good focus and all. She\u2019s just darn sneaky\u2014seems to want to keep her klepto tendencies under the radar. Although she often delivers a stuffed bear, hedgehog, possum, kitty, or bunny to me with a loud yowl\u2014announcing herself, by the time I get the camera or even phone camera ready, she\u2019s dropped it and maybe even walked away.<\/p>\n
Maybe it\u2019s just a game she plays with me. \u201cCatch me if you can.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
