We took Snowy to Petco (a pet suppy chain in So.Calif) a few weeks ago.
They had a huge room all set up with professional photographers (so they say)
They had lots of props as well. One of the men positioned her, then let go of her for a split second while the other man took the picture.
We got 9 pictures in all for 39.99 and they are beautiful.

Snowy was kind of mad, but the picture taker had one of
those feathers on a fishing line that he used to play with
her while snapping the shots. So, she wasnt that upset.

When they were done (10 minutes max) I had treats for
her and gave her lots of luv, then let her wonder around
the room so that she could be nosy for a while.

The shelter, where I got her, does a calendar every year
with photos exclusively of pets that have been adopted
for the past year (one of my motives for having pics taken).

Anyway, my seal point of 19 years passed away in '98. It has taken me this long to feel ok with getting another pet....but I still
want to call Snowy "Vanessa" (my other cat).....do we (I) get attached or what?

Thanks for the thoughts, we love Snowy so much!!
