You must be a cat-lover ! All cats look cute to cat-lovers.
But seriously, I think #1 looked cute in this shot because of the way he posed. Very serious and aloof... and full of character.
#7 is a naturally very manja cat and it usually comes through in most of his photos including this one which was shot at a unusual angle.

Yes, they are all mine. All 15 of them... I'm trying to document them all with the D700 but it can be quite difficult to get them all at one time as some of them are camera shy and like some humans would deliberately ruin the shots at the last moment. Also, some of them are not available for 'modelling' at the time I shoot as they are taking their cat-naps like all cats do 18 hrs a day.

After living with them for a while, I find that cats have very individual and unique characters... even in the same litter, each sibling has his/her own unique personality. Their personality and character comes through non-verbally in photos in their eyes which I try to capture in my shots.

Like this one... A pussy with an attitude... :bsmilie:

Yes, I like to take their photos to document their growth and development over the years just like parents take their children's photos as they grow up... these cats are my fur-kids.

They also help to give my equipment a workout as I like to test out the capabilities of the cameras and lenses that I acquire on them.

These are the latest low light, large aperture shots taken with my newest acquisition... the Nikon AF-S 50mm f/1.4G

Actually, only one of my cats, Missy has a clipped ear. Sterilised cats' ears are only clipped if they are to be released back to the streets as sterilised strays to make them easily recognised as sterilised cats.

All my cats are sterilised but since they are all house-cats, I see no need to mutilate them by clipping their ears. Missy however was sterilised and clipped by her previous owner who subsequently cruelly abandoned her. I came upon her scrounging for food in my neighbourhood and adopted her and she has been with me ever since.
