When I am not taking photos at my job at the Central Park Zoo or in my wanderings around NYC I take photos of my own gang at home which includes three cats and a dog. How wonderful to discover that Fotografiska (a NY branch of the Swedish photography museum) was presenting an exhibit of pet photography and its role in culture. This special space is in my neighborhood so how could I resist. As the museum states – ‘With this exhibition we want to celebrate and acknowledge our constant companions, their presence in Western art and popular culture, and our multifaceted relationship with them. We place these animals on a pedestal, and consider them from all perspectives: as life partners, status symbols, friends and family members, and as works of art’. I have included some photos of my own gang (and me). See if you can find us all. Woof!
While at the Zoo 
So so cool. What a great show. Love the comparison of dogs& cats to humans. Thank you for another Sunday morning enjoyment.

It’s raining cats and dogs in a good way (no flooding!) – thanks Judy for the fun! And some very wise medical advice for dog owners – if your dog gets a fever, it’s important to know what to feed him. Mustard—it’s the best thing for hot dogs. 🙂
