About
Hello, I’m Andy Edwards. Originally from the wild fens of Cambridgeshire, I am now based in Derby. My fascination with capturing moments began at an early age when I received my very first Nikon 35mm film camera—a gift that sparked a lifelong passion for photography and seeing the world through a lens.
Why “Penny Cat Photography”?
This site and my photography practice are named in loving memory of our incredible little kitten, Penny, whom we adopted alongside her sister Piper from Cats Protection.
Though Penny sadly crossed the rainbow bridge after just nine brief months of love, cuddles, and daily nose boops, her spirit left an indelible mark on our lives. This portfolio is dedicated in her honour.
Today, Piper has two vibrant new sisters, Hattie and Rosie. You can spot all of their photos over in the Cats gallery!
Penny
Penny was adopted with her sister Piper from Cats Protection who were so helpful and brilliant throughout the adoption process. Penny was a real character, those expressive eyes and her little tiny white floof patch on her chest. She loved to play and did not take long to come out of her shell. She loved watching TV with my wife, and every day she would wait on the stairs then pop her head through the bannisters and we would nose boop.
Piper, Hattie and Rosie
Piper
Piper is Pennys sister, she is the most loving cat and asks for pets and strokes especially when we are watching TV. She loves to watch me play video games and has the sweetest meow ever
Hattie
Hattie is a small bundle of energy and the most inquisitive cat ever. She always wants to say hello to anyone who visits (especially nanny). She is very chatty and if you have something on your dinner plate she must sample it, for quality of course!
Rosie
Rosie is true lap cat, whenever we sit down to watch TV or I try and work, Rosie sits on my lap and will curl up and sleep. She loves playing fetch with fuzzy ball toys and she has very specific chirps and meows to let you know she wants to play.
