Thanks for looking Bart,
I see what you mean, but Posy and Lucy never wanted to sit on anything that wasn't dark, and who am I (their servant?) to try and change that.
It's obviously the expressed intention of Somali cats to leave bits of fur and hairs on any dark surfaces they can find,
if I wear a dark suit, Posy, who probably hasn't been seen all day, will immediately appear and start rubbing against my legs.
And , as someone who is owned by 6 cats, I'm sure you also know that it's virtually impossible to pose a cat - but that's what we love about them.
I saw that Kyle Cassidy managed it with his ginger kitten, he must have used super glue, a tacker or pounds of catnip. :-)
cheers
Douglas

Douglas,

about pic #4, Lucy and Posey.
Lovely cats in a nice composition, but for the background.
I ran into the same problem with one of our (6) cats and had to use differently coloured props to even see the red cat!

If you've got one at each corner, where do you put them when you're trying to sleep?

Three attempts:

Hope you like them.
