What a pretty girl! A very nice capture! #1585627

Kathy Shogren September 04, 2014

Thanks Sheri. This is my 95 yo mother's cat. I just inherited her the past week since mother needed to go to a nursing home. It is a challenge because turns out Nellie does not like anyone but my mother. She is a feral cat and I can't get within 6 ft of her and she bolts. Everybody that sees her picture is so optimistic that she will come around. But she has been around me for over 6 years so I'm not holding my breath, I think it would have happened by now. After all she would be 40-something in people years, ha. #11126171

She may be "slightly" (Ha!) skittish but that is one beautiful cat, Kathy. Love the full frame of that beautiful face...looking at it, I believe she's warming up to you...OK, add another Ha. :) Great capture and Finalist! #11173472
