Animal House

It takes no effort to elicit oohs and aahs from pictures of puppies and kittens. But sloths and vultures?

That takes a professional like Catherine Ledner. A trained photographer, Ledner has meshed her talent with her love of animals to create works of art.

Her refreshing style ditches the overload of cuteness for modern cheekiness by capturing animals against vintage wallpaper backdrops. The limited-edition prints come in four sizes (11 by 14, 16 by 20, 20 by 24, and 32 by 40), all signed and ready for framing.

Each picture evokes a smile and a chuckle. Favorites include a fuzzy white baby camel, a brown cow sticking out its tongue, a pink flamingo stretching its neck, and an armadillo showing off its behind.

It’s so uncute you’ll want to kiss its ass.
