 So since he was a stray we really don't know when his birthday was & Brian's sister kept saying he looks like a ground hog with his big ol' belly, so we made his birthday Ground Hog's Day! lol

Hi Brandi

I'd really like to see with this image looks like without the cloned out background. Just to see what the cat looks like its own environment.

Right cool that the eyes and candle are the only things with color in this image. You did a lot of work to get this image completed. How does Rusty feel about being a celeb? Most cats are a bit camera shy.
Happy Birthday, Rusty Cat!

how cute ... hope he didnt choke on the candle!!! . i like the bit on the side of the tin saying 'nutrition facts' .. gives the impression that you're looking after him!!.. which is pretty obvious i spose coz you celebrate his birthday, even when you dont really know the exact day .. just lovely ...
