Thanks, Jim

Switch-blade?
100mm f/2... what lens is that? Gorgeous shots.

Tempting, but too long, Need something I can scream when I need to. Also I already have a cat that I have nicknamed "Lord Fuzzy Butt Satan's Little Helper" so I don't think I need to push my (bad) luck.
Canon 100mm F2.0, of course with the "what ever the Hell piece of Junk Bret used to shoot with." :-)
Careful you'll get accused of gushing. Thanks.

I have always had an open door policy at my house, if you need a place to stay you are welcome; be you man or (mostly) beast. The vast majority of the animals that have shared this earth with me have shown up on my doorstep (literally) at death's door, I will nurse them back to health the best I can. I don't know why, but they keep coming. :-)
It is rare that I get a feral kitten that shows up "only" dehydrated, half-starved, flea infested, riddled with worms, and with nasty eye infections.
[End BI]
So, she may look sly because she has infections in both eyes, or she knows she's pulled one over on a poor sucker; only time will tell. But she's here now. :-)

Xpost to Aus you mean Mate, Roo, Foster or Doug? I don't think so :-)

The way I found her; one of my cats was nosed up against a back door that I never use going, "snort" and then I heard what I thought I heard late last night, "meow!" I went outside to look for the "meow" and found something buried underneath the siding, that came running over when I snapped my fingers. Thought, "well it has been awhile since I had a new pet."
Definitely not Brownie.

That's the way I get most of my pets....They come to me, and not the other way around....Even B-K, came over to me, and stood on his hind legs and put one front paw on my knee, and pawed at my burger bag and said, "Can I have some of your hamburgers dad?" I opened my car door, threw the hamburgers on the front seat of the car, and then opened the back door, picked him up and threw him in the back seat and said, "I think I'll feed you all the burgers you want for the rest of your life."

I always wait until they show some personality, or I go over the top with "clever". Thus, Squeaker, Wen Chi (wench-y), Tuggles, and Serendip (she's a pit-y mix). And that's just the 2007 line-up.
Give her a chance to show you who she is. Or give her any old name until you find a good one, because a good name may take months to find.
Okay, one 'clever' suggestion: Earie Music.

Or if it keeps crapping all over itself then just call it "Noons."

Rip them both out, instill an arrogant attitude, an unholy facination with aus.photo and give her a camera.. her name would be...??? :-)

Kinda looks like my cat, Maui, only smaller and more poorly lit. Maybe you should just call her "Flash?" Much easier to say than "Speedlight."

Velveeta is not sold in the UK, except by specialist mail order companies serving US and Canadian expatriates, so the potential problem did not occur to me. ;-)
Anyway, if you're worried about people confusing Velvia with Velveeta, how about Provia, Astia, Superia, Sensia or Acros?
