Photography or a image I feel often captures those treasured moments in ones life but I also find that just like the act of writing our collective pictures can also be an art-form. The beauty and meaning of photograph can be expressed and shared in many ways including "by not using any words".

While I do like photography I used to share images when I could that I captured day to day events, the feedback was mostly positive and I continued sharing these "Ulog type" photos.

Almost every picture as a story to tell, or at least that is what I have often been told by some of my regular followers when I first started sharing photos on here.
To those who have often said and expressed that to me I would have to agree with them.

Today 24/8/2021 I share this capture.

Today I got up a little late, sure I was up last night until late but have been struggling lately in the morning's to get up after the alarm rings.
Still at least I didn't have to get up for work today but wanted to get a few things done at home before meeting with my friend later to help out with the situation.

So yesterday I got a phone call from my friend explaining that they had found some kittens, by the pictures they sent I thought they were found at work but it turns out they were found close to their home.
There were 4 kittens but I think only 2 have been caught.

My friend is working today and so I have the morning to get everything I need done at home finished.
After I will go out to meet my friend with the mission of trying to find these 2 kittens hopefully new homes by sharing our contacts.

I left abit earlier to try and get some more steps in, the weather was sunny and hot at times.
I hit target of 49k with a target of 109k for the week.
The good news is we were able to successfully find the kittens new homes but for now we will look after them for another 2 weeks until they are strong enough to go to their new owners.
Thankfully I had no hayfever symptoms today as yesterday I started to sneeze a little and thought it was about to start, but glad this as not been the case.
I got home rather later then I expected but it was worth it knowing the kitten will go to the right people.

Anyway as for the picture today I share one of my cat Toby, if you saw my previous posts I mentioned how I liked seeing some of the cat's with either a silver collar or a blitz red collar depending on the cat's own markings of course.
Well here is Toby showing off her red collar, unfortunately while she posed smartly the angle wasn't great for seeing it's contrast, perhaps another time I can get a better snap.

While I guess animals feel most at ease without such things we sometimes put them on as they are flee repealing collars for just in-case we get a invasion.
I really like the red one on Toby makes her look cute, and in this shoot smart, I believe I rarely if ever put on a silver collar on Toby as normally it's always red that suits her best.
While it's not the best picture of her with the red collar on it's perhaps my favourite snap I have shared of Toby thus far, maybe in future I can get a better shoot.

Toby to our surprise spent alot of time hanging out in the living room with us as she normally would stay upstairs away from other cats or us.
But in the living room she liked sleeping and looking out of the window, these days she's currently relocated to the kitchen which I think is great because at one point not a single cat would go into the kitchen.
She as now taken Mindy's place who unfortunately died recently due to old age, what we really didn't expect was for Tibsy cat to also move into the kitchen and share the same spot.
I'm confused as to how this happened as she would normally hiss at any male cats who get near her, but in my opinion she seems to not mind the company of Tibsy cat.
And Tibsy is actually being very respectful towards her so hopefully they have became good friends.

I often spend some of my time taking care of many abandoned cats who mostly all suffer from some form of psychological trauma and I sometimes share their life's moments here on Steemit.
