Cats N' Cameras is an NC-17 rated Furry Webcomic originally created by V.Kyrie and James "Cheetah" La Bella. The focus is on Josephine "Jo" Rogers, fresh from graduating college with an MBA and looking to help run the titular camera store (with a porn studio in the basement) with her childhood friends (and lovers) James "Jim" Di Benedetto and Sarina "Sari" Doyle.
The comic is mostly of the Slice of Life variety, with copious amounts of Fan Service.
Updates on Saturdays. Many strips are NSFW--the above link is to the SFW first page[1]. (Below links should be to SFW pages only--please delete any direct NSFW links you find.)
Tropes used in Cats n' Cameras include:
- Art Shift: Due to health and stress concerns, V.Kyrie stepped down as artist and was replaced by legendary furry artist and Skunkworks creator Jim Hardiman; surprisingly, he draws the strip in a style more akin to hers and less like his normal more realistic style.
- Author Avatar: Jim for Cheetah
- Bi the Way: Jo and Sari
- The Cameo: Here we have Cobalt and Twinkle from Cobalt, Penelope and Donovan from Just Another Web Comic and Rose from DMFA
- Cannot Spit It Out: Rod's feelings for Alexia
- Everything's Worse with Bears: Seems to be the cast's general reaction to Svetlana.
- Fan Service: By the boatload.
- Funny Background Event: At least once a storyline.
- Genki Girl: Sarina
- Gratuitous Russian: The readers only learn Svetlana's name when she phonetically corrects Jo's mispronunciation of the Russian text.
- Hot Mom: Manila, Sari's mother
- Imagine Spot: Or "Imagination Panel" — usually of one character having sex with one or more other. But not always.
- Lions and Tigers and Humans, Oh My!
- Mistaken for Gay: Rod
- Ms. Fanservice: Sari, above and beyond the rest of the cast.
- Not Good with People: Thisisa
- Polyamory: Jo, Jim and Sari (Jim and Jo are established as a couple, but it hasn't been made clear where they're a true OT3 with Sarina or if she's Friends with Benefits to both of them.
- Put on a Bus: Rod and Thisisa, written out when V.Kyrie (their creator) left the strip.
- Schedule Slip: Jim Hardiman is still adjusting to a weekly schedule.
- Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Thisisa's probable replacement, Svetlana, is an irritable, prickly Big Beautiful Woman with little regard for others' opinions.
- Triang Relations: Type 8
- Token Human: Alexia. Though we do see more in the background when Jim takes Rod to a strip club.
- Victorious Childhood Friend: Jo and Jim (and possibly Sari) to each other.
- Where the Hell Is Springfield?: The city, state or even the country the comic is set in are unnamed (though somewhere in Southern California is a good bet).
