Pics of kitties flehmen?

So do you have any pics of your cat flehmen? When they curl their lips back and make funny faces like they've smelled something bad? I think its the cutest thing!! Here are a few of mine...

Autumn at a cat show:


Yogi:

Their so funny!.

I havent but i'm on a mission to capture that pose next

I caught it once, but I almost missed it I don't know what he caught a whiff of

aaaaah 'The Face' both my cats do it after smelling Marks feet.
We always call it the face, I did read it was Flahmen in a cat book though.
I'll go on a mission also to capture this, Mark will have to make sure his feet are extra cheeeesy

I love the pic of Yogi, it looks like he is disgusted with something he has an awesome coat!

Yah I don't have many pictures and the ones I captured were on one of my photo shoots where I follow the cats around everywhere and end up getting some *lucky* shots.

I think the second pic of him looks like hes about to sneeze! His expressions were so funny.

I wish i did, my cats make some of the funniest faces and one of the sits up like a person with his arms dangling in front of his belly. but every time i grab the camera he moves. But your cats are cute.

I took these just yesterday, the first batch. They would have been better, but Molly was at the other end of the room... lol

Great idea for a thread.
I don't have any pix yet but lets all try to capture our kitties while they are flehmen.
Their facial expression is so intense when they do it.

I don't know that Marlee has every "really" done this face. She will often sit with her mouth a little open when she smells something, but she doesn't do anything else weird with her face at the same time. I'd love to catch even just the open mouth though, just cause she looks so darn cute doing it. And GREAT pics everyone, they're so funny!

These are great! Every time our kitties do that we ask them "Does it stink?" I know what it really is, but it sure looks like a stinky face to me.

Agree......same problem here. I can see it coming a mile away the minute they step onto "someone elses" stuff, but I can't ever catch it. It's so funny though... I think the more cats you have, the better the chances (i.e. - mine are real good....I'm just slow. )
