Best pic of Bola yet

I'm really chuffed about this one because I've at long last managed to get a good pic of him, and the fact he was climbing down my cherry tree makes it even better

That was worth waiting for Ian, lovely pic and I like the way the sun is shining in the right drection so that his coat glistens instead of getting washed out, brill.

Thanks Kath I almost missed it as he was right up the tree when I spotted him there, but by the time I'd nipped in to get my camera he was almost down. It's a good job I'd switched it on and adjusted the focus on my way out or it would definitely have been too late. I'm more pleased about capturing his face than anything, I don't think I've got another pic where you can see his face so clearly.

Ian

The light is perfect for him! What a fab pic!

Thanks Helen I'm very tempted to print this one and hang it next to my fav pic of Beckett.

Ian

Brilliant pic of the handsome Bola Ian! I say go for it, print it off and hang it next to Beckett. How lovely.

That's a lovely pic of Bola Ian.
His coat looks so shiny in the sun, love his little white bib.

I'm pretty sure I will print it off

Since getting a digital camera I've tried to get at least one good pic of all my lot, just in case the worst happens and I need to put up *cat lost* posters, but before today Bola had defeated me, he looked just like a black blob in all of them

Ian

Maybe he's been taking lessons from Fudge.

Wonderful pic Ian, I love your cat!
He looks like my Strange.

Nah, he probably thinks I'll do some "Wanted > dead or alive" posters rather than "Have you seen this cat?" ones for if he ever gets lost

Thanks Lynn

Besides the bib he's got a little white patch between his back legs, pretty much identical to his mum IIRC.

Hi NurJahan,

Thanks

He's only my cat by default. I found him as a very young kitten in my garden one day, thought he was lost so fed him. I didn't realise at the time, but he was with his mother who was another regular visitor here, thay had a home but he was out at all hours of the night/day and came to adopt me.

The exact same story applies to all my cats tbh, barring Beckett who I got from a neighbour as a kitten. They all seem to know where to go to get a warm welcome, food and shelter. I've only got two cats, Fudge and Bola, but six stayed last night, those two, Buddy, and Jimmy, Max and Dexter from next door.

That just sounds hysterical! Even though I know the situation, and that only two of them are "actually yours", that just tickles me!
