I can hear C. Mongtomery Burns now, tenting his fingers......... "Eeeeeexcellent!"

Excellent color, crop, focus, exposure. For a fickle subject, those are d**n good.

I was very hesitant to click on this because of the title. I figured it was some noob with a new camera and oof pictures but these are really nice, I wish you didn't cut the tip of his ear off in the second one but other that that they are great

Thanks, I'll check the original tonight and try a recrop.

On a side note I would like to have posted in a dedicated "pets" thread but do not see one as of yet.

These ARE good! No doubt!
Shame about the tip of the ear, just like MissCream is saying, but all in all ... good! I like to look at these!

You have a beautiful and willing cat.
If I point my camera at my moggies they scarper! Or blink when I shoot

These are really nice though. Good colour and composition.
As has been mentioned before it's a shame about the missing ear tip from #2 but overall I really like them

I really enjoyed these. They made me ponder about what the cat was thinking. The eyes in the first shot got me. Tip of ear in the second shot is not too bad. In fact, because I am a noob, I didn't even notice it initially. Good job!

I love cats!

What about take some photos "not posing"?, I mean when playing, or doing something else
