Not sure this will translate worldwide ...a slang word in the UK ( mostly North of England I think ) for a Cat is a Moggie..nothing worse than having to explain a joke...because then it is not a joke anymore....

Would that really be it, i wonder...?

I had a cat do that to the end of a roll of Delta 3200 that was drying in the shower several years ago. Now the cats don't come in the bathroom while the film is drying. I also take the small formats to the pro lab to develop.

If a cat did that to some of my 5x12, I'd be really mad; both at the cat for doing it and me for not closing the door to the bathroom.

Luckily my dogs wouldn't do that unless it smelled like meat or cheese. Or looked like a Goldfish cracker.

At least he/she has good taste.

I think he might be trying to do a clip-test.

I like your furry film cartridge opener.

"Sorry, I don't have your pictures, my cat ate them"...

If cats can flatten prints and dry film, why not use them for retrieving leaders?

 

[Photo Engineer]

Our cats would only chew on prints. They preferred color.

Now, I wonder if there was any catnip on that roll...

 

[Shadowtracker]

Oh, there's a thought - put catnip in an empty film roll, re-seal it and let the cat have at it.... may teach that cat to spool my film while I'm at it.

One may never know. Would make a good story. up until the part with the glue trap.

My cats prefer film too. This kitty is merely showing his good taste! Couldn't tell what film it was, though; it would be worth knowing whether he is an Ilford kitty or a Kodak kitty.

I've had tough critics of my pictures, but nobody ever went after my negs!

My cat's name is P.K. (short for Psycho Kitty). The bathroom door must remain shut when film is drying! Even then she tries to get in, she simply can't resist attempting to open a closed door.

We recognise moggies in the antipodes too, Simon.
But we generally don't let them handle film. (I think Boots in London may have had a few working for their processing labs though...)

It's panto time!

It's all that gelatin you know, Vitamin A extracted from bone meal.

Snap!

If she eats too much of it, will her eyes film over?
