Bashful [redux]

March 1, 2012

Betsy says: Bashful and her mother Snow White showed up one day out of the blue at a home on the other side of town. My husband and I took them both in as fosters. Bashful was so playful! She'd chase the feather-on-a-stick toy for hours and would growl every time she caught it, as if it say "this is mine and you can't have it!" :-) She was a character. Bashful was especially loved by her foster sister Miss Audrey. We're happy to say that Bashful and Snow White both found new homes.

What a gorgeous little kitty! You did a beautiful job of catching her sparkling, shiny coat in these pics, too. Hooray for happy forever homes!

..and I so agree with "MomcatSooma," above about the great pictures. Getting a good shot of the black kitties is always a challenge. Great photos!

How adorable these two are. And they are gorgeous. I do not understand how some people cannot like black cats. I think they are beautiful, elegant, and misterious.

Oh yes, love them black kitties and agree through miserable experience that they are difficult to photograph! These kitties are shown at their adorable best. I am so jealous over Betsy's skills! Happy to hear they both got new homes.

@Betsy, Mark's Song was the first piece I saved on iTunes. I have lost everything when my HD died and was replaced. I just added Mark's Song to my blank iTunes site. Lovely.

CherylSun, great words for that look of concentration! I hope both cats were fixed. Photos of "Snow White," please? Did a white mother birth this sleek black satin? What is the secret to photographing something that is black?

What a pretty girl! She is exactly what I imagine a Halloween cat to look like - pure black with orange eyes. <3

If I lived anywhere within 100 miles of her I'd have adopted her in a heartbeat.

Beautiful kittens!!! Miss Audrey looks sooooo much like our Tabitha. We adopted two kittens (brother and sister) from a local cat rescue in November 2011 and are so happy with them.
