The dilated pupils are a dead giveaway--Leila is not relaxed. This is partly because these photo shoots happen at cat shows, where there are odors of other cats (including intact tomcats) and lots of noise. Another breeder told me that females tend to be more nervous than males at cat shows, because females are hard-wired to be nervous in order to protect their kittens. Harvey's second photo, the one of his face, is remarkable in that he does NOT have dilated pupils, although he usually does in cat show photos (he's a male, by the way). Chibi is the only one of the three siblings whose pupils do not dilate with fear upon being photographed. Also, perhaps Currier and Elise--I have yet to see the latest Chanan photos.
