Photo Hunt - low
The theme for this week's Photo Hunt is low. Lacking photos of the Fens or of lowing cows, here's a photo of an early encounter between newcomer Boris (left) and alpha cat Robyn. The scene may not look tense but it would do had I recorded the soundtrack!. Hopefully this marks the low point n their relationship. Robyn is a laid back moggy so that should help

I hope they will develop a fast friendship with lost of high moments. Great shot and take on the theme. Happy weekend!
it's fascinating how each player interprets the theme. i hope those two little cuties experience more highs next time around.
Whoa... those are two beautiful furs. :)

Boris definitely looks as if he's taking the submissive role.
Lovely cats!
What a great take on theme. They both look cute, I hope they get along well.
Happy weekend.
Boris is much bigger than I assumed. They'll have to sort it out, but it's usually easier with neutered males than females.
Great imagination for this theme, hope they are doing better soon too!
They are both so beautiful! Congrats on the new arrival. I know all about those early tense days but cats do work it out, after a lot of hissing and glaring drama.
Great take on the theme and here's to a happy and peaceful relationship!

Lovely pic and a very imaginative take on the theme.
Aww! I bet they will be good friends soon :-)
Teehee re your creative take on the "low" theme. Yeah, wish you had recorded the soundtrack of the encounter - bet it could have been used to scare other animals away from your place! ;b
I wanted lowing cattle as well - I like the way cats exude an attitude. Not that I am a cat lover - I read Kipling at a young, impressionable age ;)
creative take on the theme. :) wish I could have heard the noises. :)
have a happy weekend.
I think it is pretty obvious that there is some tension there, even without the soundtrack. LOL.
Happy weekend Jams.
Uh-oh, i hope everything is good between them now :)
Nothing like a low-down dirty cat-calling session...
I think you will appreciate the stretch on my contributions this week...
I sure hope the "nekkid" toes didn't get chomped on! Boris is the perfect name for a big, fluffy cat! Now, you need a Natasha.
~~~Blessings~~~
Such beautiful cats! I can imagine the soundtrack...
Good take on the theme.
beautiful cats! they are just starting to get to know each other, i suppose. my Ph entry is up too.
i'm sure they will get along well. those cats are adorable. MEOW!
Thanks everyone!
That's a clever interpretation of this week's theme!
I this is the low point, just a stand off, then these two must be on the way up together! Great choice for the theme!
Brave the human who sits between them!
Hope they'll get to be friends.
A LOW point in a relationship? What a fantastic take on this week's theme. Great job, Jams!!

I hope they will be friends sooner or later.
I can feel it, even if it will take time.
Great take on this theme Jams!
Have a nice weekend!

I'm very familiar with that scene! And I'm happy to know that I wasn't the only one who thought of lowing cows - alas, I don't have a photo of one of those, either! :-)
Happy Weekend!
Nice picture, Jams. I like the idea of the cats being at the low point of their relationship!
Now, what's up with that message you got that says 'Michael Jackson' and then a lot of stuff in Chinese?
They are cute hehee...happy weekend. Mine is ready too.
Ah, the interpretations of low around the sphere are interesting today.
I can see the tension there, but I'm sure the relationship is already on the way up. A great interpretation!
Ah, cats. I have same encounters here amongst our feline crew. Some days it gets very, very low. lol.
Mine's up, too! I hope you can visit.
Have a great weekend!

what a unique interpretation of this weeks theme... it's kinda' hard to figure out but we did it in our own little ways.
I can almost hear the low growls that go along with that posture.
It will only go up from there!
The beer was definitely doing the thinking for me when I posted last night. I COMPLETELY forgot about the big *claim to fame* of the stretch of railway I photographed and added to the post!
Please check it out!
Thanks evryone!
Really hope their low moment is short and that they will be the best of friends in a short while. Nice entry!
Very cute! I hope that was indeed the low moment. I remember when our two cats met. There were just a few fireworks. Blessings!
Tension Centre.
It's not easy for the first to accept a second, is it? Hopefully Robyn has gotten over it by now. ;-)
hope the friendship is better now
i love the way everyone sees a different take on these themes .. hope they soon become the best of friends :-)
Thanks everyone. The level of tension is falling a little. THat can only be a good sign!
What a creative interpretation of the low theme ~ bravo! I hope these furry felines soon learn how to peacefully co-eXist.
They'll probably be friends in no time. They both are beauties. I really like the fluffy tail on Boris.
Thanks I hope they do become friends!
