Default Small Fast Response Point & Shoot?

I'm looking for a few fast response P&S digital cameras 4-6MP. I need
to take some action shots of my pets, but would like the portability.
I realize that I would be better served with an SLR, but I really need
it to be small.

Thanks,

Doc

I found the Canon S-60 to be very fast for the price. The larger models tend
to be a bit slower. You should to a camera store, enquire, and try it for
yourself.

Make an agreement where you can have your camera exchanged for another
model, in case you don't like it. Most places may charge a re-stocking fee,
but this is a fact of life when doing this type of business.

Ricoh came out with one of their Caplio models, which claims to have the
fastest shutter response available. It is not officially imported into the
USA by Ricoh, but I have seen them periodically offered new on eBay by
someone in Virginia that apparently directly imports them from Japan.
