Chunky & Weeone: Making a Connection

[Integral]

I posted pics a few weeks back of the new puppy, we are still looking for an official name, current working name is weeone.

Here is Weeone looking over the back of our ex-male cat Chunky. Chunky has become more social since Weeone showed up. He has been pretty reclusive, to the point that he usually leaves the room when I enter.

Cute pictures Integral! I especially like the first one. Chunky looks like my kitty Aspen.

Thank you,

Chunky is a pretty big cat, but really,really mellow. He is a real scared cat when anyone comes around. Not sure if Ivan as even seen him yet.

I am sure hating digital cameras for this type of pic. My animals are not statues, they move. In the time that passes from shutter squeeze to actual exposure the animals have all moved on. I have lots of shots of tails leaving the pic. :grumpy:

You need to get one that is suited for action and sports shots.

How much does that cat weigh? Or is it all fur?

My camera has a "kids and animals" setting that is perfect for moving targets. Wow, Chunky seems to live up to his name! It's pretty comical seeing Weeone and Chunky in the same photo. With a puppy so small underfoot, I'd be worried I'd squash him while walking! I hope he's quick to get out of the way.

He is a big cat, but there is a lot of hair.

Do Digital SLRs have a better response time? They are getting more afordable, I have had a SLR since the late 60s so am a bit spoiled.
