Lens-Artists Challenge #334 – Cats and Dogs

animals, lens-artists, Photography

Tina from Travels and Trifles nailed it when she said, “This week our challenge is all about something we all love – cats and dogs!” I mean, who doesn’t adore these furry pals? They’ve got a way of making our lives so much brighter, and they really do feel like part of the family with their quirky little personalities. So, I’m keeping it simple this week. I’m just sharing a bunch of cute pics of my dogs and cats – no need for fancy words or explanations. Honestly, those snapshots say it all and capture the warmth and love we have for these amazing pets better than I ever could. Each photo really brings out the joy of just watching them being themselves.

As the saying goes, “Cats have it all — admiration, an endless sleep, and company only when they want it.” These enigmatic creatures, with their soft purrs and graceful movements, embody a life of luxury that many of us can only dream of. They bask in the sun for hours, unfazed by the hustle and bustle of daily life. Their independence is a source of fascination; they choose when to interact, offering affection on their terms, which only deepens our appreciation for their mysterious nature.

A dog will teach you unconditional love. If you can have that in your life, things won’t be too bad. Robert Wagner

Hopefully you’ll join us this week to share your own thoughts and images on the subject. Be sure to link to Tina’s post and to include the Lens-Artists Tag to help us find you.

Thanks Egidio for his Complementary colors it was a lovely challenge and the flowers shots most of us chose were lovely. I am sorry for my limited comments this week, I have had a busy week and even blogging has been a stretch as I have been busy making arrangements for a month long trip. So I am giving a heads-up, I will be mostly absent during February from the blogging community.

Finally, we hope you’ll join us next week when Patti leads us once again on her always-terrific Pilotfish blog. I know it will a fun one. Until then keep smiling ☺

Playtime

I have been watching these to dog friends play if not daily, then weekly. Looking at them from my office window. They are big, but still puppies and enjoying themselves playing in the snow. This time I decided I will take photos of them. Cute, aren’t they?

Maukka the dog is waiting for some treats at the table as we prepare to sit down for coffee. The look of yearning…I have one too, waiting for this to be over and start to live a the “new” normal life. so wishing this was over. I am sure not the only one with this one, maybe I should write to Santa?
