Photo Hunt - Hot


The theme of this week's PhotoHunt is Hot. Mimi's been told she shouldn't go too near the fire, but does she listen? Does any cat listen to us, except when they think we say food???



Actually it's just sunlight reflecting off her fur, but it looks like she's glowing like embers!

    It's funny how they always find the hot spots, no matter how inconvenient. Ours knows exactly where the heating pipes under the floorboards.

  40. Lovely photo, Mimi! :) Your fur looks lovely gleaming in the sun!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Your kitty looks very pretty with the sun reflecting on her furrs. We wish we could be with her cuz it's freezing here, and we DON'T LIKE IT!!!

    ReplyDelete
  42. Sunshine on the furs feels very, very good!

    ReplyDelete
  43. She does look very hot and ember like! Of course no kitty cat listens. It's we humans who must listen to them.

    Great picture. It's a fantastic shot and shadow and sun play in it! Happy Photo Hunting and Purrs from us!

    ReplyDelete
  44. Very true ! As proud owner of 5 cats (or rather the other way around) I experience this every day !

    ReplyDelete
  45. Great shot - my moggies are sun worshippers, too. I tried to get a shot of Leo basking in front of the gas fire, but in typical, contrary Leo fashion, he got up and wandered off as soon as I got the camera ready. Have a great weekend, Shaunie!

  46. That's a cool effect and I like it. Neat.

  50. I sometimes think that all cats do, its such a dogs life..

    ReplyDelete
  51. Of course cats don't listen. that would be absurdly un-catlike.

    I really thought she is too near a fireplace, but she certainly has a strange glow about her.

    Btw,off topic, I got something for you here:

  53. Your cat enjoys sunbathing as much as my doggy :)

    ReplyDelete
  54. Great photo. She is so comfortable there. I know what you mean: my father's cats actually slept UNDER the wood stove. I was always so fearful that they would spontaneously combust but they never did (thank god).

    ReplyDelete
  66. That's a beautiful picture. I may use it as my computer wallpaper. There's a look of peace, even amidst the "flames". Cheers.

    ReplyDelete
  67. THanks everyone. Rest assured I would never put up a photo of an animal suffering. I have to make a confession. though. I did maipulate the light and ciolour levels to make the fire effect look a bit stronger than it really was.

    Dave, you are welcome to use it. She is a beautiful little cat who's disability does not stop her living a happy life

    ReplyDelete
  68. So cute! I bet she is feeling just fine...

  70. That is one happy cat. She's glowing inside I bet.

  71. Lovely! I had a cat once (many years ago) who insisted on sleeping inside the fender and close to the bars of the coal fire. Nothing would stop her, and she was frequently singed.

    ReplyDelete
  72. She certainly does glow on the inside Beaman! She is disabled (she has Cerebellar Hypoplasia) but she is a loving, if not too bright, little cat.
