Mewsic Kitty Cafe Open House {Nashville Cat Photographer}

June 14, 2018 Kaitlyn Holeman

If you loved the Mewsic Kitty Cafe Pop Up from last year, then you'll be excited to hear that they are officially open for business! I had an amazing time taking photos of their pop up cat cafe last summer, and I am SO excited they are now here year-round!

Mewsic Kitty Cafe is Tennessee's very first cat cafe! They provide "a vibrant, comfy, cage-free place for adoptable headliners (that's the cats!) to meet their furever families." So, not only do you have the chance to hang out with some of the cutest cats in Nashville, but you can adopt them from Nashville Cat Rescue while you're there! They've already had a dozen successful adoptions, the last of which was Keith Furban. :)

Take a look at some of my favorites from the Mewsic Kitty Cafe's open house below!

The Parenteau Family {Nashville Pet Photographer}

January 24, 2018 Kaitlyn Holeman

On the blog this week are a few familiar faces: meet my friends Jourdan, Pete, and their two furry family members, Buzzy and Squirrel! We had a family photo session with the Parenteaus and their cats three years ago, and it was so nice to see them again!

Jourdan has had both cats since they were little fur babies, and now Buzzy is 13 and Squirrel will turn the same age in May! They're also siblings from different litters and have some similar colors and markings I just love. Plus, those green eyes get me every time.

They're both beautiful animals and I'm also glad to hear that Buzzy is recovering like a true champ from a recent leg amputation!

Enjoy some of my favorites!

Cat Rescue with the Beagle Freedom Project {Nashville Cat Photographer}

September 14, 2017 Kaitlyn Holeman

One of the most heartwarming parts about my job is capturing significant and meaningful moments -- and the cat rescue with the Beagle Freedom Project was all of that and more.

I had the opportunity to photograph these adorable cats being rescued from a lab. Unfortunately, all kinds of animals are still being tested on today. That's why it's so important to look for cruelty-free products. If you aren't sure how to know which products don't test on animals, you can check out resources like the Cruelty Cutter app and One Green Planet.

The Beagle Freedom Project (BFP) rescues any and all kinds of animals from labs like this one. I've also been lucky enough to work with this organization before when I photographed foster pup Lucky!

We also had an amazing singer assist us that day: Meghan Linsey! Not only was she a runner up from Season 8 of The Voice, but she's also an ambassador for BFP and a big advocate of cruelty-free products.

Many of the cats were scared and most were super friendly -- they simply needed some love. All of the cats involved are up for adoption (and several have been adopted already!). If you are interested in adopting one of these cats, you can learn more about the process by going to the Beagle Freedom Project website.

Two other great organizations were also involved that day:
Friends of Hannah Rescue and Hairy Moose Pet Retreat

Please join me in supporting these organizations or spreading the word so that we can find loving forever homes for these animals!
