Photobombed.
And now, a break from our regularly scheduled programming, I present to you, an exclusive behind the scenes look. (I recommend having this musical number playing in the background for the full effect: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V8vINCq_IAI)
Indeed, cats make food photography way more interesting.
Don’t Miss a Meal!

I completely love this! My kitties never jump up to see what I’m doing. LOL I can’t wait to meet these beauties!!!

Hehe. I like to photograph my food on the kitchen floor so I have the same problem with my kitties!

Wow, that’s exactly how it goes in my kitchen, too :) The cats certainly put a lot more smiles into my life!

grey kitty is a bit of a fat cat.

Aw, she’s just fluffy!
Brava!!! Awesome post!!!
Do they make residuals?

They are inspecting your work! You passed!

That is a very familiar scene. Only instead of furry paws and whiskers, I have two sets of little hands poking their fingers into food. :)
Reply
ha, they are so so cute! I love that they are so curious! mine only comes around whenever he hears a ban open thinking it’s tuna LOL never when i’m baking sweets.
Reply
I had such a wonderful laugh at these photos. I understand completely!
Reply
I have my own series of these types of photos, and they make me smile every time, even when they frustrate me to no end. Wouldn’t trade it.
Reply
My cats love to be part of the photography process, too. They don’t go in much for salad, but they love chicken, shrimp, or anything tenuous like ice cream. And soup — they love soup.

I miss my cat looking at these adorable cats here. In my next life, I want to be a cat in your kitchen.
Reply
I love this…I have a doggie pic on my blog right now that would work in with these perfectly…thanks for posting!!
Reply
Love this post!–So cute and definitely reminds me of my kitty’s similar habits.
Reply
LOL mine isn’t allowed on the counter nor table so no photo bombs here. Can’t stop laughing.
Reply
are you sure you weren’t taking these in my house? :)
i’ve got one big black cat, a new orange kitten that has adopted US, and a crazy puppy. it’s rare to get pictures without any whiskers or tails :)
Reply
Your cats are so cute!! I miss owning one. :( We live in an apartment that doesn’t allow pets..
Reply
This is too funny.
Reply
I love this so much. I’ve been looking at it all day. This is so typical of cats and it’s hilarious.
Reply
My cats do the same exact thing. They need to smell everything and they KNOW where you will be focusing your attention next and plant themselves there. Thanks for publishing the photos!
Reply
Oh, my! These are awesome – and I am a dog person. ;-) Love the accessories, too.
Reply
This is too adorable Lindsay and I know this experience all too well :)
Reply
ps the one of the kitty in the Ball jar box is my favorite, I think. Hilarious!
Reply
kittehs! this cracks me up. you need to include more of these posts :)
Reply
This post made my night. Thank you.
Reply
Ha ha! I have the same issue with a chubby little 4-year old hand creeping into my photos … :)
Reply
This made me totally laugh! (Especially when viewing with the very appropriate soundtrack.) Glad to know I’m not the only one that has little whiskers in everything I’m doing.
Reply
LOVE this. So funny. Aren’t cats the best!?
Reply
Love it! The cats are lovely. The gray one looks so fluffy :)
Reply
I also I have two very curious cats, follow me for all.
I love cats. Your photos are very nice
Reply
“Canning & Cats” I’d buy that cookbook. Also, I turned a quart jar box into a bed for my cat because she kept sleeping in it instead of the fluffy, ritzy cat bed we bought her!
Reply
This is exactly what I needed this morning! Those darned cats…
Reply
So precious! My cat has also claimed the kitchen table as her territory. No placemat is safe from cat hair.
Reply
Such adorable kitties! Mine isn’t nearly that curious. Substitute “toddler” for “cat” in most of those photos, and that’s my life.
Reply
This is the cutest thing ever! I don’t live with a cat anymore, but whenever I visit my mom, her cat is always very curious about what the humans are eating. If you leave a bowl of cereal unattended for 5 seconds his furry little face will be right in the milk!
Reply
Haha, what an adorable post – gotta love our furry friends :)
Reply
This is the best food post ever haha I love cats and my cat is always trying to sneak into pictures also!
Reply
thank you SO, so much for posting these pictures! this totally made my day.
your cats are pretty cute.
Reply
I am in LOVE with this post! I feel like I have the exact same thing floating around the Photos archive on my computer. Don’t you just love that feline curiosity? They always manage to get exactly in the one place you don’t want them, but still look at you like “What? I can totally be here.”
Reply
I especially loved the picture with your cat in the box! Too cute.
Reply
I need a cat to take pictures like this, or even two. They are so cute :)
Reply
What beautiful photographs of your sweet kitties! Looks like they’ve mastered the art of “look but don’t touch.”
Reply
I love this post !!! :D :D Zee kitteh will not let you take zee photo! ;)
Reply
Just love your post. Love your cats :). It is really similar to our situations…. We own two curious cats and they want to be everywhere!
:)
Greetings,

First of all, SOOO cute. My cats act exactly the same way – especially if there is a box to sit in. Secondly, I love that you posted this because I love seeing how other people set up their displays, because I just never know how to set mine up.
Reply
I like your Blog a lot, (and I know all of the cat lovers will differ), but cats on counters and in food pictures-GROSS!!!!!
Reply
HAHA If I’m shooting on the floor my little dog will do the same thing. :)
Reply
I love your kitties! My cat would have done the same sorts of things. I’m a total cat person, but I must really love my husband a lot because I had to get rid of my cat when I met him. He’s deathly allergic :(
Reply
I love how it’s almost entirely Sgt. Pepper! And Kalypso, because she owns it all. Desmond must the good kitty who stays out of trouble.
Reply
Aw my cats and my cooking are my fave things to photograph. My three boys would have been all over the place. There is discipline there…really…! Love the photos! :)
Reply
Ha! They really do my cat does the same things. Too cute though to ever get mad.
Reply
Hahaha. I love it!! They’re adorable :)
Reply
This post makes me happy and sad at the same time – love the pics. Your kitties are super adorable.
Reply
The story of my life :D

Nice to see I’m not the only one with cats in my photos! I thought it was bad when I had one cat, now that I have two….I chase one off while the other is sneaking behind me to get to the food. I think they work together so that one distracts while the other gets to see what’s cooking!
Reply
SO Adorable!!!! Thank you for these lovely photos!
Being a cat lover and a cat companion myself, I know how these little cute furry friends can make life a lot more fun (sometimes more challenging too ;) )
Thank you, thank you!
Reply
haha too cute!

this is so funny and cute, I have 3 teenage kitten who are seriously curious so I can see all of this happening with them!
Reply
omg! i wished my kitchen was lovely like yours and filled with curious cats too!
Reply
Hahaha! Cats be so inquisitive! I like to pretend mine is inspecting for poison to keep me safe.

I have to say, I still get a kick out of this post a month later. Totes adorbs kitties FTW.
