While visiting these two characters, it became clear they almost never sit still for a photo, so I decided to try the Canon Elph S400's movie feature.
    Sophie, the smaller one is the older one. Tucker The Larger has always used Sophie for a footstool (!) since coming to join her a few months later.
    The clips below are about 30 seconds each and should stream to 56k modems as well as to cablemodems/DSL/lan hookups.   These are tests of the movie-clip option.


Click to stream Video1 with RealPlayer (slowww)
Click to stream Uncompressed video1 with WindowsMedia (Slowwwer)
Click to download compressed Video1 instead (best)
Click to stream Video2 with RealPlayer (slowww)
Click to stream Uncompressed video2 with WindowsMedia (Slowwwer)
Click to download compressed Video2 instead (best)

If you don't have (free) RealPlayer, the below will download and install it: (click on the one that's for your system)
    For PCs and Windows
    For Macintoshes
    For OLDER Win or Macintosh operating systems
    For Unix

Also, some sites' multimedia offerings require Quicktime 4.0 at least, on the computer.
    If you don't have that, you might want to download the latest Quicktime here
