The light from your flash reflected off the back of the cat's eyes and that caused the effect you see. Best bet it to no use an on camera flash. Move the flash far from the lens so the reflection will not shine back into the camera. With people you generally can greatly reduce the effect after the fact using software to edit the red eyes. Cats are so sensitive to this that often the glare is so bad it is not possible to do this. -- Joseph Meehan 26 + 6 = 1 It's Irish Math

Cats are so sensitive to this that often the glare is so bad it is not possible to do this. Taking a picture of a cat with ANY flash is likely to cause the problem. Best bet is available light. But then I am somewhat of a fanatic about available light... I like pictures to look like what I SAW, not what the flash illuminated excessively. -- Ron Hunter
