A little about me...
Mateo & his siblings were born in a neighborhood where we were doing a TNR (trap/neuter/return) project for a colony of cats. He was part of an almost all black litter of 6. I decided to foster them myself & they immediately changed my life (in a good way). This was the largest litter that I'd ever fostered, but also the sweetest, healthiest & soon to be my favorite. I did multiple photo shoots with them to help with their adoption, but also for my own personal enjoyment.. They all were adopted out easily, & I stay in touch with all of their adoptive families with updates, pics & sometimes visits, too. I love getting to babysit my fosters after their adoptions. It's a treat.
This picture was part of a series of Xmas photos that I did with Mateo. He had a little mug of whipped cream "hot cocoa" & a tiny scarf & decorations. He wasn't crazy about the dress-up part, but he was deadly serious about the whipped cream.. 😄
