Cats and puppies

And here's some picspam before I go away of the cats and some fluffballs at the pet supply store, all taken last weekend.



Vic behind Greg's monitor


He so needs a LOLCAT caption!


Claudia does her crashed Imperial Walker impression


Claudia and Tessa


Vic on the deck with terracotta cats. We found these in the garden when we moved in, half-buried under a bush. The previous owners never asked for them back so we decided they were a feline welcome.


Tessa amd Claudia


Fluffballs! Keeshond puppies at the pet supply store. These little guys were so playful, it was hard to get a photo.

Vic is so dignified and cute! And those Keeshond puppies are adorable.

Such adorable little fluffies, aren't they! It's a pity they'll be broken up because they played so beautifully together.

they'll be broken up
awww...that will be sad.

Vic is so dignified. *hugs all the kitties and puppies*

He's an extremely photogenic cat.

Awwwww.
(And am impressed with the Claudia + Tessa one -- I know how difficult it is to get the light right with those two).

Thanks! I forgot to post a second one of those two on the deck; it's there now.

Awww, heee, kitties! I will miss you while you're away! When do you return? XD

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 08:38 am (UTC)(link)
Friday 22 February, but it looks like we might be able to get cheaper and better internet access than last time, so I'll be looking in once or twice a day. :-)

[identity profile] vandonovan.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 08:39 am (UTC)(link)
Lovely! I won't be utterly Vilakins deprived! Hahahaha. I hope you take some lovely photos. :)

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 08:45 am (UTC)(link)
I took heaps last time (http://pics.livejournal.com/vilakins/gallery/0001kez2)! This time I'll be doing and seeing new things so I'll take more. :-)

Hey, your icon is animated! *quite amused*

I made this one last night. I'm such a sucker.


Gonna go look at your pictures now, thanks for the link!

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 09:22 am (UTC)(link)
Nice!

There are volcanoes! :-D

[identity profile] vandonovan.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 10:01 am (UTC)(link)
Ahahahaa, that one is really cute too! Are they new or have I just not seen them? XD

And yes, volcanoes! They're all really beautiful, especially the aerial shots! And the Segway! Ahahahaa, fantastic. :D

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 10:05 am (UTC)(link)
We'll be Segwaying again this time! So cool!

No, they're old icons, both by [livejournal.com profile] snowgrouse. Here's the first animated one I ever made, years ago. :-P An antique!

[identity profile] vandonovan.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 10:07 am (UTC)(link)
Ahahaha, oh Vila. He's so lovely. :) I am going to be getting B7 on DVD this month so I hope to make some nice animated icons then. Right now, making them from the quality of vids I have would be pointless, hahahaha.


I've never ridden a segway but it looks fun. XD

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 10:15 am (UTC)(link)
DVDs, yay! You will see them all in glorious detail!

[identity profile] vandonovan.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 10:20 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. I might just rewatch the whole series! Though I wish I had someone I could show them to, ahahahahaha. Oh well. I might try my dad again. I showed him the first episode on a grainy VHS transfer on his computer and he wasn't impressed, but DVD quality on his plasma TV might work. We'll see.

I've seen Orbit, Warlord and Blake in DVD already and it was SO NICE. I can't wait to rewatch some of the other ones over. Especially stuff like "Duel" and "Dawn of the Gods" and "Ultraworld" that had really dark settings which looked like hell on my crappy little avi files.

Vic behind the monitor reminds me of this recent offering on Cheezburger.

Have a good holiday!

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 08:39 am (UTC)(link)
He does!

I will once I'm there and over all the stress of work and packing and getting there. :-P

Your cats are so beautiful!

*meanwhile is dead from cute over the little fuzzy puppies*

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 08:40 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you!

They were even cuter in RL!

[identity profile] ultrapsychobrat.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 09:08 am (UTC)(link)
Great pics--love your kitties!

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 09:25 am (UTC)(link)
Leaving them behind is the worst thing about going on holiday--and the best about coming home.

Claudia does her crashed Imperial Walker impression

That really made me smile :0) So true! Nothing like some nice cat pics :0)

I have yet to get a pic of Tessa's Yoda impression.

[identity profile] linda-joyce.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 10:25 am (UTC)(link)
The cats all look mildly annoyed with you, either they don't like having their photos taken or you made the mistake of packing before you took them to the cattery. Or it might just be me.

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 10:30 am (UTC)(link)
It's just you (though I admit Claudia looks a bit intent in the Star Ward one). The photos were taken last weekend when they were perfectly happy and relaxed. :-)

I was thinking of that one of the girls together indoors, that they had a kind of "Are you pointing that thing at us AGAIN ?" expression.

And the one of Claudia as a crashed Imperial At-AT is fab. I don't think I've seen any of my cats lying like that.

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I know my little Burmese girls with their slanty eyes and they're just giving me a patient, fairly laid-back look. If they were annoyed, they'd get up and walk away and I took three pictures to get one with Tessa's eyes open. :-)

Claudia's the only cat that lies like that. I really have to get Tessa's Yoda impression to match. ;-)

Brill!

Great pictures.
Those puppies are cute but somehow I don't think the cats would view them the same way.
Have a great time!

[identity profile] vilakins.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
They were quite big for puppies too.

Thanks! I leave in a few hours.

Yay, another good one!
