    Stash is one of our Abyssinian cats -- and just happens to be our local expert on the subject of relaxation. This was a grab shot as I was lurking about the house looking for furry subjects to test my new 105 DC lens out on...

    Not sure what's prettier - the cat or the light you captured him in. Beautiful image, John...and you can tell this guy knows what he likes!

    Love the image, John, beautiful cat. I love felines as photo subjects. The color palette is gorgeous here! Bet he's a spoiled puddy!

    Thanks for the kind words, everyone!

    Julie -- there's nothing like flattering window light...
    Alfred -- it's a wonderful breed; affectionate, intelligent, and active. The wild cougar-like look of the ruddy (color) abyssinian is why they're often called 'couch cougars.'
    Anita -- I totally agree with you! Felines are so enigmatic and make great portrait subjects. The coloration of the fur on the Aby is courtesy of the agouti, or ticked, hair shaft which is banded with three or four different colors (like a bunny).

    I had been thinking it was about time we had more kitty posts. You and Anita must have been reading my mind!!!

    Beautiful creature there - and I agree that the light and coloring are just beautiful in this photo!

    A fine looking feline. Interesting that you mentioned "couch cougars"......certainly what I thought. I just love cats.....or rather they love me. I'm blessed to have had 3 adopt me.....ok....so sucker is written on my forehead. Glad to see more cats!!!
