You might have the cutest pet in history, but things can go wrong when you try to take a picture, because animals don't like to sit still and pose for you. They don't like to smile on command, and they can be downright creepy looking, caught on one frame while in motion. For example, Stanley doesn't always look like Slenderman's dog.

And sometimes you have no idea what's going on until you get a good look at the picture you took. The cat below was just looking out the window, and the photographer had no idea there was something looking back, until she saw what the flash illuminated.
