			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">I&#8217;ve found that getting an impressive shot of a pet can be somewhat of a challenge. Usually my dog and cat are so interested in the camera that they run up and sniff it instead of maintaining a pose. You have to be quick on the draw. With fast moving pets I usually like to test the exposure settings in the room so I don&#8217;t have to fumble with them when the cat strikes a good pose.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a rel="lightbox[]" href="http://www.jessicaricco.com/wp-content/gallery/gallery1/upsidedown.jpg"><img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-center alignnone" src="http://www.jessicaricco.com/wp-content/gallery/gallery1/upsidedown.jpg" alt="upsidedown Some Favorite Animal Photos" width="525" title="Some Favorite Animal Photos" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This was my boyfriend Chris&#8217; sister&#8217;s kitten. Unfortunately, he ran away. Good thing I was able to snap these shots of Mitten before his abrupt and indefinite hiatus.</p>
<p><!--adsensestart--></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a rel="lightbox[]" href="http://www.jessicaricco.com/wp-content/gallery/gallery1/laundrycat.jpg"><img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-none alignnone" src="http://www.jessicaricco.com/wp-content/gallery/gallery1/laundrycat.jpg" alt="laundrycat Some Favorite Animal Photos" width="525" title="Some Favorite Animal Photos" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">One day last summer I was mowing our front field-like lawn and happened upon this in the grass:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a rel="lightbox[]" href="http://www.jessicaricco.com/wp-content/gallery/gallery1/fawn.jpg"><img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-center aligncenter" src="http://www.jessicaricco.com/wp-content/gallery/gallery1/fawn.jpg" alt="fawn Some Favorite Animal Photos" width="525" title="Some Favorite Animal Photos" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This fawn was only a day or two old, and even with the grumbling of the lawn mower (which happens to be a Kubota diesel tractor) this little guy stayed put &#8211; in my way. No more mowing that day.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This next shot is of my neighbor and her beloved mare. Tara is pretty much one of my best friends. She owns a business bailing and selling hay. Sometimes she&#8217;ll call me at random times to go frantically help her gather hay bails because it&#8217;s supposed to rain. I have great adventures with her.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.jessicaricco.com/wp-content/uploads/tara.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-222 aligncenter" title="tara" src="http://www.jessicaricco.com/wp-content/uploads/tara.jpg" alt="tara Some Favorite Animal Photos" width="373" height="509" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">And this is the evil monster that lives at my house. Right at this moment she is trying to sabotage me by sleeping on my arms as I try and type. She also loves to jump off the windowsill and land ever so crudely on my keyboard.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.jessicaricco.com/wp-content/uploads/cookie.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-223 alignnone" title="cookie" src="http://www.jessicaricco.com/wp-content/uploads/cookie.jpg" alt="cookie Some Favorite Animal Photos" width="500" height="336" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">She is sort of cute when she sleeps though.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.jessicaricco.com/wp-content/uploads/cookie2.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-224 alignnone" title="cookie2" src="http://www.jessicaricco.com/wp-content/uploads/cookie2.jpg" alt="cookie2 Some Favorite Animal Photos" width="400" height="596" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">That&#8217;s all for now&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">~More later&#8230;</p>
