Love that curious expression. Kind of like my cat looking for treats! I wish the ears were not cut off at the top.

Wonderful close-up portrait, Stuart. Beautiful markings, awesome eyes and like the open mouth. It would be nice if ears were not clipped, but still very well done!

Lovely detail...I assume this is captive. I also think its disappointing the ears have been clipped.

A cat I would love to see in the wild one day Stuart (as I'm sure do you :t3).
The light is rather flat here, and the cut off ears have been mentioned. Do you have any shot a tad wider?
