When do you WISH you had a camera handy?

Do you ever have those moments when your furbaby is looking entirely too cute but you don't have a camera handy? Here are my 2 recent moments:
*I had to work late Friday night. When I got home, there was Eponine, curled up asleep on top of a sleeping Bradley. Of course she jumped up and the shot was gone by the time I got to my camera
*The other moment was today (I have been home sick all day). Eponine was curled up on top of this blanket on the couch (it's velvet with feathers around the edges). Well, I wrapped her up in the blanked so all I could see was her head surrounded by tons of feathers. Too cute! So I had the perfect shot...go for the camera...and the batteries are dead As God as my witness, I WILL get a picture of her in that pose one day soon!
What are your "Wish I had a camera handy" moments with your kitties?

one is when Mittens and Zeus are sleeping togather, it is so cute, but they move before i take the picture!!

when Godzilla chases any toy-on-a-string, he flings himself through the air like an NFL receiver trying to catch the winning toughdown (complete with the single arm outstretched). He leaps, flips, soars, and it's all so fast that my camera just can't keep up, if I even have it within reach.

That's a big problem; it is almost impossible to capture their athleticism on camera!

It actually happened to me this morning. Chloe discovered playing with and drinking water from a faucet. I was so bummed I didn't have the camera, but I knew if I moved and got it she would have followed me and the moment would have been lost. Instead I watched her and laughed as quietly as I could. It was so darn cute!

I would also LOVE to catch one of her Godzilla moments.

Now that she's discovered the joys of dripping water, you'll have to keep a camera near the bathroom so that we can see Chloe in action!

Sierra makes the cutest face sometimes when she's taking a bath. She'll look up with me with her little tongue still stuck out from licking, so sweet! She only does this for a couple of seconds, so I can never get to the camera! Also, when she's playing in her paper bag and she'll peek her little face just a little ways out out! When I try to get the camera, she gets distracted.

Those mid-bath faces are so cute! Hopefully you'll be able to capture these moments on camera one day

right now.

Sure will keep trying!

Awww, too bad. Love to see him looking so cute!

Those are all so cute!! I'd love to see Sierra peeking out of the bag, I love watching kitties-in-the-bag! My boys, Joey & JC, have several cute games but stop playing as soon as they see the camera. For instance, they press the fax machine's & the printer's buttons until the machine spits out a piece of paper & catch the paper. They play bi-level tag through the trenches that the plumbers have left in the middle of the floor; Joey jumps on top of a plastic bin filled with dirt, and knocks off dirt clumps, and JC tries to catch them before the dirt hits the floor.

Every night when I get in the bed, Thomas jumps up there and gets in his position......snuggled up next to me with his head laying on my right shoulder and a paw outstretched over my chest. He just purrs so loud and gets so comfy....that I would love to have a picture of that.

Oh and I'd love to get pictures of Cooper doing his "ninja" moves! It's hilarious....he jumps up in the air and turns around at the same time.....looks just like a little ninja!

I would love to get a picture of Princess and Patsy cuddling together. Princess does not like Patsy to get with 5 feet of her so on the rare occasion they do cuddle if there is even the slightest noice Princess is gone. I think in the 8 years I've had both of them they have only cuddled 2 or 3 times.

Ok here's something new that Cooper just did that I wish I'd had a picture of......

I was sitting here at my computer reading the posts here at TCS when he jumped up onto the back of my computer chair. That's not new...he always does that. But this time he started rubbing his head against my head....and then he layed his front paws on my shoulder while rubbing his head against my face and giving me kisses.....all the while....purring like crazy in my ear. Wonder what got into him tonight?

My baby boy Highway used to do that.
