I was in Yorkshire last week visiting a friend.Shelly the cat and I are friends, and most times she comes around to say hello. Shelly was purring away and very happy to be greeted.
I am a real cat lover and have always had cats. I am missing my cat, The Toots whilst I am in the UK.

After the shot was uploaded I noticed the white fur around Shelly's face and paw looks a bit OE.That old nemesis- a lack of white balance has once more bit me!

Hi Joni,

What a kind friendly story of Shelly the cat and you.
So cute.
A caress from me to Shelly next time you'll see her.
Great shot.
Cheers,
Daisy

Hi Joni
Shelly looks a lovely friend to have. Gorgeous colours on her. Lovely sharp, clear photo of her and I like the look of the old style bench she is laying on.

Hello Joni,
nice photo of a very cute three-colour cat! Good composition, clear photo and pleasant colours :)
There's a saying in Russia that three-colour cats bring good luck.
I'm a cat lover, too (and I have a cat myself) :)
best regards,
Elena

Bonjour Joni,
Qu'il est mignon, ce petit chat à la fourrure très colorée, il a une superbe allure, je craque il est de plus très charmeur, allongé sur ce vieux banc de bois, c'est un joli cliché
Amitiés
