A Few From this Week...



I couldn't go too long without posting a few pics of the little guy from this week. I'm still hoping to catch some really great action shots - but lighting is key to getting the results I want. I'll post them when I get them!
He continues to talk to us (me!) about his breakfast and dinner - begging for his soft food.  I've found a canned variety (Holistic) that comes in a larger can, so its not as expensive, but still offers great quality - and he loves it! Now, of course, our Shoga is requiring his share of soft food too.  I've noticed he will move Levi off his bowl and take over. Naughty boy!  So I make sure Shoga sees his own dish again and goes to it - staring him down if necessary, to get the point accross, as I move Levi back to his own dish.  Children! Always wanting what the other guy has!

Happy Valentine's Day!

In keeping with the theme of props, I've just shot this photo to add of our sleepy boy - in a bowl this time!
He continues to enjoy his soft food - either homecooked or tinned.  I make sure to buy the good stuff, when I buy tinned food. But he's also starting to eat his kibble more, now that his adult teeth are in.
My daughter helped with the cat wrangling this time  - a good wrangler makes all the difference!
Well, gotta run! Till next time!
Enjoy!

Playing with Props

I just thought it would be fun to play with props with my little guy - and the others if they'll cooperate!
Levi, however, was in "wildman" mode and just wanted to run after his wee toy mousie instead.  I think I'm really going to need a cat wrangler to do the job right!  Hmmm...there must be a kid around here willing to do the job for a small bribe...Cookies, anyone?!

Feb 10 Adventures

Just had to post a few pics - playing, resting, watching the birds outside.
I've cooked some chicken and beef for the Levi - Shoga enjoys it too, of course - but he still goes crazier for the canned food. I wonder why that is? Hmmmm....
With no further ado...

Updates on the Wildman

Levi has begun to accrue some nicknames.  His first nickname was BP, which stands for either Big Paws or Black Paws (he has both). His second nickname was Thunderfoot, so named for his thunderous galloping through the house during crazy-hours. Amazing how such a small cat can be so loud! Let's see, there are a couple more... Little Man, Trouble-Cat, Monkey-Cat, Monkey-Boy and most recently and appropriately, "Ruckus". 
True to the nature of any kitten or cat, Levi 'gets into things' on a regular basis.  These things often crash to the floor, startling everyone in the house; hence the name "Ruckus".  I think this name will stick!
Here are some updated pics of young Ruckus/Levi, who has grown incredibly in his short time with us.




I'm also trying out my new logo/watermark: RavenwoodStudio.com.  This refers to my art/photography/design business.
