Orei is very camera shy!


I can hardly take a picture of him without him freaking out, as you can see.





I always have to hold him still. Poor guy....



Do any of you have "camera shy" kitties?

Whenever Baylee is doing something cute and I pull out the camera, she runs off. My suggestion to you - if you have someone you know who knows Orei, maybe have that person hold Orei in his lap (lying down)... that's what I've done with Bay and she calms down and doesn't hide.

What I learned is that you cant force them LOL. Try just playing with a toy in one hand and have your camera in the other
Or sneak up on him when he's sleeping or relaxing.

Sounds good!
Also, does anyone here have pictures of their babies being camera shy?

My Princess is shy of the camera, I can only take a couple of pic of her because she's always running and hiding from me.

Yup, your baby sure is camera shy!


I think my girls are because whenever I have the camera out they are no where to be found! I guess most people can tell because most of my posted pics are of the boys!

Good idea to sneak up on them when they are sleeping... Then you get these sweet pictures that always make them look camera shy!

Malakai is FAR from camera shy... Adrian says that he's 'full of himself' because I take wayyy too many pictures of him and I'm always callin him 'handsome'... but I took this picture the other night and I call it "Malakai's being a Brat" because he was sitting there looking at me and as soon as I grab the camera and went to snap the picture he turned his head... I tried to get his attention and he wouldnt look at me... it was kinda funny lol...

Awww... Sometimes Leo can be very Camera shy. I'll whip out the camera when he's jumping in the air for a string toy and then he'll stop jumping... little booger...
Or sometimes when i have the camera out, he'll look at me and then quickly turn his head the other way...
