I have A LOT of pictures of Goof on my cell phone; he's my furbaby after all. :D I sometimes share those pics with the kids in my classes. When they're upset and can't be consoled or helped, or at the end of the day when it seems as if everyone else's mom and dad is arriving BUT NOT THEIRS, I pull out my phone and we look at Goof. This year, their favorite picture so far is this one. I was trying for a profile pic but he yawned just as I took the picture.When the kids first see the pic they think he's roaring but then I explain that he's really yawning.
Cats always seem to want to yawn when they're pictures are being taken! Goof is a cutie though :)
ReplyDeleteThat they do! :D
DeleteThanks, I think he's a cutie too.
Did you know that cats and dogs sometimes yawn when they are stressed--it can be a nervous reaction besides being tired? That being said, he is a big cutie and I love that photo!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that, interesting.
DeleteLove it! And what a great way to distract/console the kids!
ReplyDeleteIt works very well. Most kids like animals and they love hearing my stories about him. One girl enjoyed them so much she even had an imaginary cat named Goof. :D
Deletemine look away from the camera
ReplyDeletewhat a wonderful way to use your photos, I bet your a great teacher!
Thank you! :)
DeleteI'll bet your kids love you! Goof looks like a great cat -- and he does look like he's roaring! :-)
ReplyDeleteToo funny! And it's so great that you're able to comfort the kids in that way. Cats are always a comfort. =O)
