Have you ever wondered what your pet does all day? Cooper, an orange tabby in Seattle has been gaining notoriety lately for documenting his own life for the past year. Taken from a camera that hangs from his collar, his owners, Seattle filmmakers Michael and Deirdre Cross didn't expect the amazing shots he'd bring back.
From a few inches above the ground, Cooper takes between 200 to 400 pictures a day on a miniature digital camera programmed to take one picture every two minutes. His owners built a harness for him so the lightweight device would be as unobtrusive as possible.
Hoping to see what Cooper did all day - where he went, if he had friends, a girlfriend - they discovered he was a lone wolf who kept to himself, birdwatching, crossing busy streets, and exploring his Greenwood neighborhood. The kitty has an infrared bauble on his collar that allows him to have access in and out of the house through a cat door. The Crosses installed it after they realized through the photos that Cooper would wait for hours to be let in.
Not all of his pictures turn out, of course. Some are blurry or dark but a lot of them are quite stunning.
