He begs with large, watery eyes. Begging, but assertive none-the-less. Can't you see I'm hungry and cold, he seems to say, you're a nice person. Let me inside right now. He is a pretty cat. Shiny, sleek. We almost forget what he's done, but an anti-welcome mat backdrop serves as a not-so-subtle reminder of his true and inescapable nature. We acknowledge him, give a sympathetic glance or two, but leave the door shut.
This is great.
ReplyDeleteI like the two tone eyes and the offset geometry of your composition.
We once opened the door to an aged, toothless, homeless, tortoise-shell that proved to have a seizure disorder (brought on by tapping a spoon on the dish to get the rest of the cat food off-- of all things; took us a while to figure that out.)
We had to put her down when we caught her writing bad checks.
I know that cat!
