Oh no, Humans. You’ve got to be kidding me. This won’t work as my 2023 Official Halloween Portrait at all.
Why, you ask. Must I explain everything? Fine, here goes…

1. My pumpkin is still un-carved. You need to get on that!
2. Only one pumpkin?! Where are my bats, spiders, ghosts, and ravens? For that matter, where are my two other pumpkins?! Halloween is not a time to be low key.
3. Why is the foliage around me still green? It doesn’t “read” fall. Fix that.
4. The lighting is all wrong. Too bright, not nearly spooky enough.
5. You caught me off guard with your kissy-kissy noises and my tail is not ready. I expect more professionalism on set.
6. Why is the pumpkin on my beloved front yard mountain at all? This all looks very staged.

You are totally right. This was a half-baked attempt at best. Our month is running out. You need some real
Halloween vibe! Come on, humans! – Fellow House Panther Roc

I shall say it again: this is still better than Catorze’s best efforts to date!

I had one taken months ago. I tried to find it again, but there are over 14,000 photos now in my folder! Most are kitty photos, of course. I settled for a close-up of And6’s face. Not very scary unless it’s what I wake up to. EEK!

Why do I always see the typo AFTER I post a comment? “Andy’s face”….

I am, aren’t I? It takes especially incompetent photographers to mess up a picture of me. Purrs, DV
