How much is that cat in the window?

I was just taking a couple of flower shots in my garden when I noticed Mutz sitting on the window sill in the living room behind my reflection. I remembered the new challenge topic and took the chance to shoot both of us at the same time, a rare opportunity.

Canon EOS 60D
1/320s f/3.2 at 100.0mm iso800 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

that folded ear makes this image even more endearing! my first reaction was to flip the left ear and move to the right, "to make them EVEN" as some of us would be thinking inside that proverbial "box," but this is unique! it has my vote for the obvious adoration that is most evident in this shot! shu

Thank you, Shu, Michael and Trav. Shu, I can tell you, for me, Mutz is the more adorable one ;-) Trav, Mutz was born with this folded ear. It seems to be no handicap for him. He thinks it is a good excuse for not obeying but I believe he can hear quite well. -Gerald

Is the ear naturally down like that? There is almost a surreal, ghost like quality about this image...a weirdness, (in a good way). Traveller

Yes, as Shu said, a great idea. It works very well and this is an excellent start to the challenge. Regards, Michael
