Is the flashy box gone yet? |
Hi kitties, Traveler here. I'm representing both of us, since Sherlock was too scared to even come out and do this. You'll find out in just a minute why. But I'll give you a hint: it has to do with flashy boxes. Do you want to know what I am really afraid of? I think it's something all cats have in common. I don't really like to say the word, but,... it gives me the chills just to say it you know. The human follows me around every where with it... okay okay, you've probably guessed it by now: The flashy box.
She follows me around every where with it, documenting my every move. A cat could use some privacy around here, you know. But apparently the human doesn't get it. She still will follow me around the house and the flash a bright light and next thing I know my picture was taken. I don't like it, not one bit.
Any way, I'm scared beyond reason. I just don't like it and I do everything to avoid it.
I hope this face is convincing enough, and maybe, just maybe, the human will reconsider using the flashy box on me ever again. Please?
There's always hope for next time. |

We think you have a very sweet face. We just hate to think of it being scairt!
ReplyDeleteThat flashy box is a real killjoy.
ReplyDeleteWell, part of the problem is your face. It's so cute that your mom can't resist following you around with the flashy box. I hate the camera too, though, and can completely relate!

Traveler, the stalking problem is something that goes with being well-loved. Humans who care so much tend to go a bit too far, especially with those flashy boxes. Your human appears to have taken those two cute pictures of you without flash, and that wasn't so bad, was it?
ReplyDeleteUgh, I've had to deal with that thing for 10 years and there does not seem to be a chance of it ever letting up!
ReplyDeleteIt's the curse of the adorable face. Much too sweet to pass up. We cute kittehz just have to shoulder this burden. **sigh**
ReplyDeleteAw, isn't it a shame when kitties dont like the flashy box when so many people want to see pictures of them?
ReplyDeleteMaxwell: Traveler, DOOD. There's always one in the bunch. None of us like the F.B. either but Faraday's WAAAY too much of a Scaredy Cat to stand up to it like you did in those photos here. Way ta go!
ReplyDeleteIt's a crime to steal a photo like that. Maybe you if you put the bitey on the human she will leave you alone!
ReplyDeleteWe are so used to the Flashy Box we usually ignore it. And we frustrate Mommy by looking cute and then closing our eyes or looking away just as the Flashy Box goes "click". MOL.
ReplyDeleteLuv the photos, dey really cute.
ReplyDeleteWe really don't like that flashy box either and try our hardest to avoid it, but it seems to always catch up to us. But that is a cute picture of you. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteHi Traveler it is very nice to meet you!!
ReplyDeleteYou are very gorgeous in your close up!!
Hugs Madi
*sigh* Alas, the flashy thing is what we media-famous kitties must endure! Our public would be the poorer for NOT seeing us, yes?
ReplyDeletePURRS!

I think you are out of luck. You are waaaay too cute for her not to use the "flashy box" again.....I'm not afraid of it, I just HATE IT! do what I do, turn your back and break the pose that she found so endearing that she must photograph it....that's PAYBACK!
ReplyDeletetraveler; I HATE the flashy box...hate hate hate it...one wouldn't think so, given I'm a diva....but.....

Hey Sherlock, Hey Ash, Hey Traveler, Jet here.
ReplyDeleteSorry you're afraid of the flashy box... perhaps you can meow to your human that you prefer the box when the sun is out!
See, the thing is, we really love seeing great photos you and the box is a necessary evil!

ReplyDeleteI don't really mind the flashy box...unless I'm up to something!
ReplyDeleteIt's the cute factor I'm afraid. The cuter you are the more the flashy box!!!
ReplyDeleteWe do not thing any kitty likes that flashy box! However, we are getting better at ignoring it and making it hard for Mom to take pics! She has to take pice with NO flash .Even then we make her work for the pics! heh,heh,heh
