Thanks, everyone, for all your help and suggestions! I've been experimenting some and have found that the red-eye reduction flash turns everything blue-ish for some reason, but there is a no flash option, which seems to work pretty well if I turn on enough indirect room lights and use the incandescent white balance option. Of course a lot depends on where the cat is located at the time, but with 20 of them lying around the house at any given time, I can usually find at least one in a pretty good spot, LOL! So far I haven't had to doctor any more red eyes (or blue green ones, in this case), but I've made note of all the suggestions for that, for future reference, so I guess you could say I'm now well-armed for any eventuality - and fully clothed, too! :-) Thanks again for the help (and the fun) - and hope y'all like cats, cos you're going to be seeing a lot of them from me - at least until they figure out the sound of the lens cover opening and start running! :-P
