I have a feeling we’re going to be seeing a lot of animal photos today. I’m no exception! :D

I love kitties. I have several. Well, the kitties are all the kids’ cats, but I finally got my *own* cat after 20 years: Olivia, or Livvy as we call her. she was such a furry little bitty thing!

Livvy and Daddy2

And she’s growing up so fast. :(  Doesn’t she look so warm and furry and snuggly there? Mmmm.

Warm Fuzzies

One of our other cats is named Fuzzy. He’s quite the character. Here he is at a few months old, when he was spooked and got a “foxtail.” That cat used to climb the curtains!

He’s a big boy now!

Other furry I could think of: a Bactrian Camel at the Utica Zoo. They grow very furry coats for the winter.

And the Tamarin monkey, also at the Utica Zoo, has a furry orange top. He peeked out at us from his box.

My “furry” was pretty simple today! How was your Photo Hunt? Leave your link in the comments!

    Fun collection of furry shots, Mrs. M. That Tamarin is especially adorable!

  6. June on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 12:41 pm 

    That little kitty sure knows how to relax!

  7. Ourhomeschool on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 12:57 pm 

    Very Cute!!! I love the one where the kitten was spooked. It’s one of those moments you have to be ready for!

    Thanks for stopping by to see my elk. ;o) Many Blessings.

  8. Flo on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 1:10 pm 

    Great photos. Livvy is a little doll!!! And Fuzzy certainly is a big boy :)

  9. Mojo on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 1:10 pm 

    How odd. I once had a dog named Fuzzy and she was *ahem* Rubenesque as well. About 115 lbs worth at one point.

  10. jmb on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 1:27 pm 

    Despite a having other furry friends it is great to finally get your very own.
    Happy weekend.

  11. Tab on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 2:01 pm 

    I love the photos! I really like the camel. What funny, easy-going animals.

  12. JC on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 2:33 pm 

    Super collection! I really like the monkey… very different :-)

  13. Cats~Goats~Quotes on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 2:48 pm 

    Love all the photos! Precious cats!!
    The little Tamarin reminded me of when ZooAtlanta tried to release a family back into the wild. Before that could happen, we released them into the trees at the zoo with ropes, hidden food, boxes and tracking collars. They never offered to ‘escape’ and were well on their way learning about living in the wild when the mother collapsed. The zoo was not able to release them then because they didn’t want any disease that she may have had to go to their homeland.

  14. Carver on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 2:50 pm 

    Great shots for the theme. I like them all but the camel is my favorite. Happy weekend.

  15. The Social Frog on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 3:03 pm 

    What beautiful Pictures :)

  16. it's a blog eat blog world on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 3:04 pm 

    How funny that we both had golden lion tamarins in our ‘furry photo hunters’ posts!
    Fuzzy sure is a big boy now! I have one just like him under my desk, next to the space heater!
    Have a great weekend!

  23. Photo Cache on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 3:56 pm 

    You certainly presented us with a host of furry images. Those cats are so adorable. See you next week.

  24. Gandalf and Grayson on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 3:58 pm 

    You have some furry kyoot kitties! We love the poofed tail! Gandalf gets like that every time Menace Cat comes in our yard.

  25. azahar on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 3:58 pm 

    I don’t think you have nearly enough cats … ;)

  26. david mcmahon on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 3:59 pm 

    That last shot is an absolute classic. You froze the moment perfectly!

  27. eam on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 4:04 pm 

    furry furry cute furry animals! wow, all these furry animals in Photohunt make me talk real furry err funny! :-)

    love the camel and monkey photos!

  28. Jientje on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 4:05 pm 

    Awwww! I LOVE the foxtail!!!
    And I used to have a Siamese kitty just like yours!

  29. ancient one on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 4:09 pm 

    You have a lot of “furry” friend’s photos. I especially liked the camel… think that’s the first one I’ve seen today. Great Post! Thanks for coming by.

  30. Mrs. Mecomber on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 4:18 pm 

    Thank you for your comments, everybody!

    Livvy is a Tabby Point Siamese and of course she is ADORABLE! Fuzzy is a tabby, all tabby. He’s quite the quirky character.

    But Livvy is my BABY. lol. And yes, she IS a doll! :D

    Mojo– 115 lbs. Whoa. That’s a mighty big cat.
    And Azahar– I don’t think so, either. ;) But I’m still trying to convince the family of that.
    Jientje– really?! Just like Livvy! Neat!!

    It’s funny how so many of your liked the Tamarin! I’m not a monkey fan, but his orange head screamed “furry.” lol. And I was surprised to see how so many others had picked Tamsrins for today, also.

  31. Brita on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 4:33 pm 

    Great shots, I like the last one but Livvy is just adorable! Whish I had one like her…
    Thanks for visiting too. Hope you have a lovely weekend.

  32. SabineM on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 4:37 pm 

    Great shots. Love the way the last photo turned out!

  33. deb on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 4:41 pm 

    I love the cats and the camel but the monkey steals the show!!

    Thanks for visiting my Photo Hunt today :)

  34. Cece on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 4:49 pm

  40. Leslie on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 6:14 pm

    The photo of your baby kitty on the red plaid blanket, she looks like a white tiger cub! How adorable that photo is on the shoulder too! My hunt is up please come and visit soon!

  51. Pink {Aloha Monkey} on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 9:51 pm 

    You’re right, there were a lot of animal photos today. I can’t think of anything else that’s furry. Moldy bread?

    I love the monkey photo. The color is so rich.

  52. napaboaniya on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 9:57 pm 

    The coat of fur on the camel is really looking thick and warm :)
    Beautiful pictures! :)

  53. kaye on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 10:18 pm 

    fuzzy menagarie, thanks for visiting

  54. ByrningBunny on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 10:19 pm 

    You’re right, I was expecting lots of animal pix today and I wasn’t disappointed. lol I’ve really enjoyed them. I was surprised to see two different ones of that kind of monkey though! And your camel was original, but I’m partial to the adorable kittens.

  55. lew on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 10:42 pm 

    Livvy is a doll! We had a Siamese years ago that like to perch on shoulders, sometimes trying a leap from floor up my back to get there.

  56. gengen on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 10:58 pm 

    Thanks for commenting my entry. i like the first picture its cute one.

  57. Ice Pony Girl on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 11:03 pm 

    Furry neck warmer. <;p]

  58. jhay on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 11:08 pm 

    Livvy is so cute! :D

    Wish I could keep cats as pets, but my sisters are allergic to them.

    Anyways, awesome shots!

  59. Biker Betty on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 11:11 pm 

    I love cats, but I’m afraid our present dog doesn’t. I haven’t had a cat since I was a kid. My mom has one and I love to to play with her cat when visiting. The monkey photo is very cute. Have a great weekend.

  60. girasoli on Sat, 31st Jan 2009 11:18 pm

  78. Kerry on Sun, 1st Feb 2009 1:22 pm 

    Livvy is adorable! I was wondering what breed she was. I read your comment. I Tabby Point Siamese, huh? I just may have to check them out. She is adorable!

  79. ramblingwoods on Sun, 1st Feb 2009 1:29 pm 

    Awww…love the kitten and cat…I have two and they are very furry…You can see it on the couch..LOL..

  81. JyLnC on Sun, 1st Feb 2009 9:36 pm 

    Your cat does look very comfortable and your wildlife photos were great.

    Thank you for visiting my photo hunt this week.

  82. Rachel on Sun, 1st Feb 2009 10:53 pm 

    What great pictures! Livvy is beautiful. She looks so comfy in that first picture!

    Thanks for visiting my PH!

  83. Irene on Mon, 2nd Feb 2009 1:28 am 

    I love the first photos, so adorable!!

  84. Annie on Mon, 2nd Feb 2009 9:02 am 

    I love seeing everyone’s furry friends and yours are wonderful!

  85. Tink on Mon, 2nd Feb 2009 3:46 pm 

    Is Livvy a Balinese cat? She looks a lot like my Freyja, especially as a kitten! Cute pics!

  86. Mrs. Mecomber on Mon, 2nd Feb 2009 3:52 pm 

    Hi Tink. Livvy is a Tabby Point Siamese with lynx markings. Tabby Point Siamese are their own breed and there are even contests and shows for the breed. I had no idea when I got Livvy, I just loved her to bits. It’s kind of neat, knowing that I have a “precious” cat– but even without knowing this, she’s still precious.

    Thanks for your comments, everyone! I was surprised to see that the monkey is so popular! This was a fun Photo Hunters this week, wasn’t it?

  87. Scarlett on Mon, 2nd Feb 2009 5:36 pm 

    Wow, I love the pictures. The kitties look sooooo cute ^_^
    Good job :)

  88. Kim on Mon, 2nd Feb 2009 6:16 pm 

    I swear there is a correlation between bloggers and cat owners.

  89. Mira on Mon, 2nd Feb 2009 6:24 pm 

    Livvy is such a cute thing. She was loving the warm flannel I could tell form her position ;-)

  90. Shinade on Tue, 3rd Feb 2009 5:43 am 

    oh my I am so excited that I finally made it by. My schedule went completely bonkers on me starting last Friday. So I am trying my best to get caught up today.

    I am so glad to see you again also. And as usual I am not disappointed one bit in your fantastic picks for furry.

    You always put so very much work into your shares with us. I have you bookmarked back into my favorites. So hopefully I can keep up with regular visits again!

    I love your new kitty. She is just adorable.

    I do so hope your week is going well. I know you guys have really had some weather to contend with.

    Happy Tuesday!:-)

  91. Cookie on Tue, 3rd Feb 2009 9:11 pm
