Ok. I'm going to whine for awhile on this one, so stop reading if you detest whining.
From the beginning this seemed like a trick question: Have you stopped beating your wife?
Seriously -- a challenge suggestion? Fun idea. But "Amuse us. (and the more ridiculous, out there, kookoo... the better!)"? I just knew that that was doomed to fail. Getting ridiculous and kookoo wasn't going to be seen as a serious challenge suggestion. But wait a second, it didn't say a serious challenge suggestion.
So I went with the description and came up with the silliest thing I could think of.
So it was hard seeing people saying they were looking for viable challenge suggestions. It just makes one want to shout: "READ THE DESCRIPTION!!"
Now. That being said. There were some people that managed to get the kookoo, silly, and I could see it being a challenge. Selfies in Chrome and red nose day were brilliant, and managed to bring a believable challenge as well as silliness. I hope they do really well. And perhaps if I had simply titled this drinking buddies, it would have worked better. But I wanted the ridiculous.
Perhaps if it had been a good shot, that would have worked the best? :)
Perhaps if I stopped bitching and moaning I'd have shot something for contre jour?
Oh drat.

Ah. I can't go back and edit out the whining until rollover. Sorry. Too sleepy. I just put it in to get it off my chest. So hopefully no one will read it before morning. :) |

Yep, I agree, there were some that were great shots but kookoo? Nope. This certainly met the challenge though, I can imagine the difficulty in getting cats to cooperate lol.

| Most people don't read the challenge description, look at a few in the TT. Thought this would beat mine for sure, good set up. |

| Since we were told the more kookoo the better, this is hard to beat. |

Too funny. I gotta know what you put on the straws to make them lick them :)
I wish both cats were either full body or cropped out. Someone one of each looks a bit odd to me. But I've worked with cats, so you take what you can get :) |
