...in one of his more introspective moods. Actually, the deal was that he could recline in my lap if he let me get a shot. Compromise was found.

Just tell me what you think. I'm a big girl.... I won't cry for long. ;-)

That is the best cat picture that I have seen in years. The light and the colour of the fur. Wonderful

@bronzebilly u.k.: He really is just a big mushy fur ball that whines too much.... His real evil eye usually involves his ear's being back and any exposed digits being fair game!! LOL Thanks billyboohoo!!!

Helen from Melbourne, Australia

Fabulous! I am not letting my love of cats bias my comment either. This one is a winner Amy!

@Helen: Thanks Helen!! It's not easy getting shots of these little monkeys... I'm hoping I may have one of my Abby to post. She's the worst of the bunch... once the camera comes out she thinks she has to lick it.. sigh...

Bron from Canberra, Australia

Fine composition - he earned your lap!

@Bron: Thanks Bron!! He always thinks he has earned my lap... just a big wussy suck!! LOL

Roberta from Rocky Mountain House, Canada

You've caught that freaky side that cats have. No doubt that's only because of the lighting combined with the coloring of the cat.

4 Aug 2007 9:10am

@Roberta: Hey Roberta!! Thanks! Yeah, it is the lighting and colour of Lewis 'cuz he sure ain't freaky... too big of a suck!! LOL
