This is such an amazing likeness of our neighbor’s cat–named Bella, from TWILIGHT–that disappeared last year. I would question you to see if you’d gotten Bella on the black market 😉 except there have been mountain lions in our area next to the Garden of the Gods, and we all fear Bella met her fate.
Lovely shot.
Marylin, I promise this is not a black market catnapping. There are several belonging to local shops. Very healthy. A couple of nice tabbies too. Yvonne calls it a tuxedo cat 😊
Andrew, this is one of my all time favorite shots. Tuxedo colored cats are some of my favorites I have two males that are Tuxedo. This cat is beautiful, healthy and, very alert. Excellent shot.
It must be a royal pain with the lithium batteries. I feel bad that you are having so much exasperation. But I am glad that you appear to be mending rapidly. You will need lots of energy for the flight and the move.
Yvonne, this is a very healthy cat indeed. Could jump high and very agile. But not too keen on being a model. There are a couple of shops in this alleyway that have cats and they look very well cared for I’m happy to say.
What a pest about the batteries – I’m guessing that you have lots of them otherwise you could take them in your hand luggage when you fly? Beautiful photo of the cat. I wish that we could have one here but it’s another little person to find someone to care for when we travel 😦 When are you moving back to Blighty, Andrew and how’s it all going? and most importantly, how are you? 🙂
I will put some in carry-on luggage Lottie but I think I have too many. We leave on February 2nd. I am doing pretty well. Still on meds to keep things in order. They stop after 3 months and then we shall see :-))
Good Yvonne. Slowly making progress but I never want to move masses of photo gear again – the rules on shipping or not shipping lithium batteries are driving me crazy. Sooooo confusing and restrictive.
All downhill from here

And I’m happy to know that the cats are in good hands.
What’s not to love? It’s a cat .. and a cute one at that!!! 🙂
Cat’s eyes, cat size 😉
I’m really enjoying your forays into street photography, Andrew.
Bellissimo, adoro i gatti.
Ciao, Pat
Me too, Pat 🙂

This is great news that you are on the mend. Fingers crossed that all goes well for you. Golly gosh, your move is really soon, how exciting! 🙂
A pretty cool cat.
Wonderful image.
Nice, Andrew. The cat appears quite alert and suspicious.
Is Lithium explosive? UPS them to a relative.
Now there is a cat who could make mincemeat out of Reckless Reggie AND Fat Eric!
False bravado, Paula. He legged it shortly afterwards.
A perfect black and white subject, Andrew. Great inquisitive pose!
Hi, Andrew. How are things going?
Good Yvonne. Slowly making progress but I never want to move masses of photo gear again – the rules on shipping or not shipping lithium batteries are driving me crazy. Sooooo confusing and restrictive.
Courage, to be said with a sexy French accent, not a blunt Aussie one!
It’s a great shot of hangin out almost as though it knew you were taking the shot
