So I recently borrowed my friends very expensive camera for some freelance work and I decided since I had it handy I would capture some shots of my growing family . . . aka my animals Georgia, Snaggle, Burton and our newest edition (she came with the addition of Brad aka the marriage lol) Shelby. Our 2 dogs and 2 cats.
Each animal has such a wonderful personality I wanted to capture each of them just the way they are today so I can always remember each one of them. Here are the photos:
Burton
Burton is a purebred Beagle. Good-natured, full of energy, great with people, LOVES TO BARK (not a good thing, for us and neighbors), always can count on him for a good cuddle and to sneak up onto the bed numerous times during the night even after being constantly pushed off. Burton lives to the tune of his own drum, often reminds me of myself . . . he is not very obedient, loud and doesn't take orders without a little bit of a fight, but at the same time he is sweet and so darn cute it's hard to be mad at him for long.
Shelby
Shelby is a purebred Border Collie. She is very shy and passive except when it comes to sharing her food. She is strong and happy and listens very well without having to ask twice. She is smart and protective and just a very easy-going dog. She is Brad's farm dog who has adapted to our home life in town very well and I think she enjoys having a place to finally settle down at.
Georgia
Georgia is a beautifully coloured orange cat. Contrary to the name Georgia is a BOY. And he is also an American! My mother spent 5 years living in Atlanta, Georgia on the East coast of the US, while living there her friend saved 2 kittens from getting put down and my mother always being creative with the names of things named them Georgia and Snagglepuss. I asked my mom later "Why did you name the boy Georgia mom?" and she replied "after the red Georgian dirt Steph." To this day I still don't quite get why we just didn't just call him Dirt then . . . anyways Georgia is a "simple" cat, I think his name has left him with some issues and he does funny things all the time which I can't explain. He is my little mountain lion. Georgia likes to cuddle and is the friendliest out of all the animals. He has no fear and will approach anyone to say hi. He is a great cat, when he has to go pee he goes outside, when he needs to seat he lets me know and when my car rounds the courner to park in front of the house after work he always comes running to greet me. I love this cat!
Snaggle
Snaggle is the little sister to Georgia. She is my princess. It is hard for most to beieve but her and Georgia are in fact from the same litter, however are polar opposites, she is white and small and he is huge and orange. Snaggle despite her not so pretty name is a delicate and gentle cat. She is friendly when she is similar with you and is easily frightened with new people and new things going on around her. The photo below sums up the essence that is "Snaggle". I was trying to get a good photo of her but instead am left with the photo below, although blurry I think it is perfect. Snaggle was afraid of the camera and every time the flash went off she bolted. She is a very good-natured cat, she is kind and sweet and like to cuddle and be held on her own schedule and not yours. She is the hunter and always leaves "presents" on my front step. And I can always count on her greeting me at my car door after work too!
Enjoi.
