He does not look happy to have a camera pointed at him. Looks hungry too. I'm not really a cat person, but I hate to see one go hungry.

Needs food and love.

Wonderful capture. The cat and the wall compliment each other beautifully.

Poor little kit ... lovely shot

Look at the size of those paws! I doubt the other cats mess with that one...

anymommy said...

That is one expressive cat. I LOVE the colors in this photo.

Will said...

That's a beautiful picture. And that cat has a set of ears!

Happy WW!

Beautiful cat and photo - and of course we're quite fond of cat pictures :). The wall and cat seem to match perfectly.

I was thinking to myself how kitties look alike all around the world then I looked at your picture and back at the kitty and I could swear that kitty cat looks like you :) Happy WW

Ahhhh! Cute kitty paws! I love that cat! Even if he's not quite the best chameleon. I can see him against that not-quite-orange-wall.

Happy WW!

Beautiful coloring on that cat, but I wish I could give him some food!

Happy WW! Here are more photos from my vacation in Barcelona: http://tinyurl.com/yz3xp8t

Aww looking at those paws it's still a young un, but a young un with lots of cattitude!

Love the colours.

Nice cat for living on the street and a great pose. Looks a lot better than some of the characters we have wandering the streets of Reno.

TBM said...

What beautiful colours! I can see this as a painting. :-)

His back paws make me think of a rabbit. His eyes seem to be looking back to a different world.

I am glad his attempts at camouflage did not fool you. This is extraordinary.

Auntie E said...

I like these tabby cats, as I call them. He looks well and colors are vivid. Happy WW

Liz Mays said...

Those back paws are monstrous! Happy W/W!

Awww. Poor guy. Make me want to take him home.

Awww...what a sweet, but sad kitty.

Carver said...

That's a beautiful cat. I hope he finds a home.

Sara Elizabeth said...

Poor sad kitty. Those eyes are so beautiful and green, but they look so sad too. That is a big kitty, kitty too. Big ears and big paws.

That may be the most complete picture statement about life that I have ever seen. The picture talks to me. Beauty and composition on the one hand, and the stark reality of survival on the other. A simple street cat trying to stay alive, beyond dignity, says it all.

BTW, I do have a cat and a dog that live with me.

Beautiful shot of a beautiful, poor street cat.Here next to my house we have few of those as well,but they all look quite well fed...

kayerj said...

Tiny said...

Love the colors! Poor kitty...

Amanda Moore said...

There is something about the look on his face, you really captured a moment with this little kitty. Robin this is a really good shot!

Calico Crazy said...

Looks a little like one of ours, except of course our kitty is about 10 times as big.

Love the colors in that photo! I posted a cat photo for WW too.

Devilish Southern Belle said...

Wow, his paws look HUGE compared to the rest of him. Great photo! I'm here via WW, and I'm late making the rounds. Mine is here if you get a chance to look around over the weekend :)

Looks like a statue from a pharaoh tomb.

I just saw this now - that's really a fantastic shot! How poetic.
