A while ago I've seen this post created by @derangedvisions which I totally loved and promised to myself that one day I'll create a similar post with my pet.
So since Sky is pretty new to the Hive family, creating just his introduction so far, I thought that it's a pretty good opportunity to share our very first photoshoot taken together, just because I'm a proud cat mom and I do feel like I love him more and more with each passing day. This wouldn't be possible without the help of my sister who took all the photos with her Nikon D5100. Because Sky is just 4 months old and still finds it hard to interact with new people, going to a photographer who is specialized in taking pictures of animals would definitely turn out pretty stressful for both my tomcat and me.
Spending time in the windowsill or at the gaming corner are some of his favorite spots in the house and that's why we focused on those so he feels as comfortable as possible in front of the camera.
Funny or not, since I and my boyfriend adopted Sky I slowly turned into a cataholic so couldn't miss the chance to take some pictures together wearing my new clothes related to cats, such as a tiny black cat coming out of the chest pocket, the "cat mom" small message that already says a lot, as well as the full cat print PJ that both I and my boyfriend bought.
Even though I didn't buy clothes for Sky yet and I'm not sure if I ever will, we did use the harness to make it easier to be in the focus because I've recently read that black cats are the least adopted cats just because of stupid rumors but also because it's hard to take a good picture of them since they are so dark.
And considering that the natural light didn't help us too much either due to the cloudy days we had lately, using the harness felt like the best option for now. But I can't wait to see him getting more comfortable with our routines and hobbies and become part of them and who knows, maybe become a cat model or at least take photo shoots more often.
But for now, I think he did an awesome job and it can only make me a proud cat mom.

Your kitty is beautiful 😍. The photos turned out very well 🥰, surely in the future they will look better as he gets used to the camera and other people in his environment 👌. Thank you for adopting him and loving him so much. Loving our pets undoubtedly makes us better people 🤗.
Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words! I am very proud of how he acted in front of the camera for his first photoshoot so I have no doubt in time he will feel more and more comfortable ❤️
What a smart idea to start your photoshoots in your home where your kitty could be comfortable. Your sister did such a nice job on the photos. I love the closeups of your cat and the focus on his eyes. I also loved those shots with the colorful spiral balls in view.
Have fun enjoying your new pet. I look forward to seeing more photoshoots in the future ~
Thank you! I wish we could take a photo shoot in nature but I guess we have to wait a bit longer until Sky feels comfortable out of the house he knows in the smallest details.
The idea with the colorful balls was of my sister and I love the results too. 😁
You’re welcome. 😉
Black cats and the dark greys are my fav. Looks like a keeper!
Definitely! 💯 Do you have any cats?
Oh yes, we've got three cats and a dog. I just made a post on their new auto-clean litterbox here..

The black one (Jax) isn't shown in that post. For some reason not able to upload pic here today..
Wow, what a crazy investment but definitely a smart one! Cleaning litter boxes can be a pain if you have allergies or even just own more pets and have to do it more often than usual.
Your cats are beautiful!!
Yes, it was an obnoxious initial cost. I'm really hoping to recover that in less litter costs within reasonable time though. So far, it does seem to be using MUCH less litter. And the performance is amazing. Zero pee or poo smell in the bathroom now where before it would often get quite powerful.
Happy to hear that!
Cuteness overload :) Sky is such a little adorable fella :) Great shots!

Thank you so much :D
Oh, how beautiful! I love his alert look and big ears!
Black cats are unique, I had a beautiful little panther, she lived 18 years. I'm glad you adopted him because as you say, many people are foolishly prejudiced because of his color.
It's nice meeting another mom of black cat. I'm sorry for your loss but I'm sure your kitty offered you lots of beautiful moments ❤️
AWWWWWWWWWWWWW I can see the love and affection in your eyes as you look at your cat, the love and warmth these our feline companions bring to us is so wonderful.
I'm happy that can be noticeable because I do feel a specific connection with him that I haven't felt before. ❤️
It’s a wonderful feeling🥰
Yes, indeed 🥰

Whoa, so beautiful photographies, I loved all of them ☺
Amazing post!
Thank you! It's all the merit of my sister!
OMG what a beautiful small thing Sky is!! Super cute!! The pictures are pretty amazing, and Sky for sure is gonna interact easily with people along the time.
I like cats without any clothes and yes… poor black cats… I knew they are the less adopted color for those rumors! It’s great the fact that you gave him a proper home!!
Thank you so much! Sky is quite shy from what we noticed so don't know how easily he will interact with new people during the time but maybe once it's grown up, will be more sociable.
Thank you for taking time to read and share your beautiful comment. Hope you have a lovely day! ❤️
Beautiful cat...
Thank you!
His eyes changed so much! Aww he is a cutie!
And still changing! I should do another post about him since he's a lot bigger now and many things changed. Might set up a post around holidays as it's also the first year with him around ♥️
I can feel Sky is and will be a very spoiled , loved and extra pampered cat🥰
