Pi, the San Diego tabby cat, is the first pet I photographed since going on vacation earlier this month! I just spent a week and a half in Hawaii, and boy, Pi really put my ability to snap back into the swing of things to the test! You see, he wasn’t so sure what to do when he was suddenly the center of attention for the humans in the room. He’s used to people coming over – and his dad describes him as a relatively social cat – but once the camera & treats came out, he suddenly took off for his hiding place under the bed! So we did our fair share of coaxing (a small bowl of milk may have been involved), and he slowly decided that being the center of attention wasn’t SO bad. And I’m glad he did – since he’s gorgeous! He has beautiful, orange, tabby cat fur and the most striking yellow eyes… he’s definitely a handsome cat!
Oh, and if you recognize Pi – please DON’T say anything to his mom! This session is a surprise for her birthday! :)
I might have interrupted a hunting mood here… he looks like he’s ready to pounce on a mouse!
But don’t worry, he likes to relax too. Wasn’t it nice of his parents to choose a rug that complements his coloring? ;)
And I couldn’t resist sharing this one with you – I love how snuggled he gets in his dad’s arms!
Jeff, thanks for a fun morning with your beautiful cat! I can’t wait to reveal the big surprise with you soon!
