By hook or by crook, I managed to get a video podcast together.
Now, from what I’ve learned by reading and watching, one should take quite a bit of b-footage to fill in spot montages. I was recording in front of the camera because I wanted to get used to being on the other side. I forgot to doll myself up and put on the war paint, in essence, I look hideous, but a perfect moment was caught on film and this was simply too hilarious to pass up.
You better be careful. With cats this smart and performing, they may get SAG to represent them if work conditions are not just so. 😉

That is great! And you can’t tell you don’t have makeup on– the ‘dim lighting’ was ingenious! I’m going in a dark room next time I try video. 🙂

I was just watching this with the sound turned off. Voila, I had an idea…
Wouldn’t it be funny to make this video available to people to write their own thought bubbles? Perhaps their own voice over? That would be hilarious.
Hmm. Now how to make this video available to all…

@Jeanne-
Cats can’t talk, so therefore, I don’t have to pay them. They should be grateful they got a spot since they can’t do the chores I ask them to do!!
@Tara-
Dim lighting -ingenious? Nah, that was just the torchiere lamp on high with our adjustable can lights.
Thanks, tho! 🙂

NayNay *isn’t* alpha cat -he’s a *disgruntled* cat. Since Bacchus is Alpha, he’s off feeding his 3rd chin somewhere -or drinking my blue water.

Hey Contessa- If I can grow a spine by uploading a video where I *know* I don’t look my best and couple it with a great laugh, then anybody can do it.
Thanks for visiting!

Lisa,
That is fantastic. I love the video. We must see more of you on camera!!! There are cat fights at my house too…only difference is I only have one cat and she chooses to fight with me. Has anyone else experienced the surprise pounce and bite routine?
