OREO

Description

This is my Bi-color Persian, Oreo. I got brave the other night and decided to try some black on black in my studio - this was the last shot. Oreo behaves like a dog and performs a variety of tricks :-)

Your bravery paid off, Cindy! Fabulous portrait of Oreo--the black on black really works. His eyes and little white mustache are amazing! #4745358

Thanks Colleen - Oreo was pretty co-operative. I shot this without any assistance (he knows what 'stay' means). The tricky part was capturing a decent expression as he ignored my attempts to attract his attention with the teaser. :-P #4747815

Congratulations Cindy - your kitty shots are always so beautiful! I have an Oreo too - but, he's more of a Tom than your princely Persian here! #4981926

Sharon F. Morris October 26, 2007

Oreo is beautiful and so is this image. Congrats on your finalist Good luck in next round. :-) #4984608

Cindy Bendush level-classic October 26, 2007

Thanks so much everybody! Carol - Oreo does the following: Give me a kiss, give me five, sit up, stand up, roll over, now roll over the other way, jump from chair to chair, and jump through hoop from chair to chair. He naturally gave kisses and I begain rewarding that behavior with treats (the cat HAS to be motivated by food!) Then I showed him what the other requests were and gave him treats when completed. Soon he was doing them on command! :-) #4987849

Awesome capture Cindy! You have an adorable cat and you have done a breath taking portrait of him. You also have a stunning gallery. I love the pastels colors and the art work effects you use on your photos. Have yourself a beautiful day!
