 Darling Gray Kitty. He's such a doll, and a stray, though he kind of lives on our deck. Because of the cold temperatures this winter, he's acquired a very thick coat - like velour.

He was stretched out on the step here. First I was going to show you the whole body shot, but his face is so cute and earnest, I did a crop. And yes, there's odd space on the left. It's because I could not bring myself to compromise his whiskers.

In response to Pat's question: yes I feed him - tons and tons of food. He's quite the piggy. When he first came around, he was emaciated and very skittish. Now he's wonderfully friendly and round - in a muscular kind of way, of course.

He's got that classic tomcat look to him, only softened a bit by being a kept kitty. Lovely eyes.

He sure is cute. His eyes sure stand out against the gray fur. I wouldn't crop the picture and cut his whiskers off either.

Great face. He does look like he is not missing many meals.

He looks very sweet. His look is just great. Think you are right about not cropping the whiskers.
