A Comfortable Shoe *

Well Done!
Cats find the human smell of their owners (companions) very reassuring. The shoes is a wonderful substitute for that, as seen here.
Unlike dogs, cats do not recognize the master-pet relationship. Cats have only 2 categories: companions (friendly behaviour) or strangers (defensive behaviour)

This one is my favourite among your entries. I love the expression on his face, he is feeling really comfy. Apparently, all cats love shoes, I wonder why:http://www.pbase.com/gerald_h/image/65817083/original

This is my favorite of your cat shots Shu as I love the look on the cat's face - he looks ecstatic! Nice lighting and composition and I like this color version better too. CJ

Purrrrfect. This is a unique cat shot with the comfort of the added shoe. A little oof towards the top of the cat but then I'm not sure whether that bothers me or not since the focus obviously should be on the shoe. Although the b&w is nice, why not color Shu? I think this would have more impact with some color... or maybe not. Sorry, my head is spinning still from work :) jano
