My dog and cat were a team.
Both German Sheppard's I had in turn loved to be dominated by my small
calico bean fed kitty. Who lived almost to be twenty. And shared my pillow
with me.
Sometimes she would wake me in the morning with a precisely placed nose
bite.
Elmo would drive to New York with me, but he got way sick when I went to the
LHSA meeting in Wetzlar. So he died the day I got back. He had a nice life.
A photo studio to play in and pretty models to play with. And most of all
his critter companion Slides the cat. Who coincidently had the same coloring
has he. Black and white and tan.

This I think was my first "roll" with my 28 1.4 Nikor. A Nikon lens with
Leica aspirations. If you zoom in in the eye you see I nailed the focus on
his eyelashes for sure. He'd just been saved by steroids. And was on his
second life.  He had a great ride in the van to NY. Lots of adventures.
