Hmmm....From the look on his face, I have the feeling Houston's thinking evil thoughts about those flying monarchs, Emile - the movement of them must be hard to resist for a sweetheart such as him. Gotta love those snowshoes - he's a handsome boy! Great capture of him doing his "cat thing"! #1640734

I am not sure if he will stay on watching only, I know my cats wouldn´t. He is soooo handsome! #11390876

Must be sheer heaven for cats, having all those glorious fluttering things right there in their view (and, they hope, reach). #11390891

Great capture of your beautiful Houston. Think that the watching is making him tried. #11390906

Houston looks like he is ready to stir things up. As every good cat should do. :-) Seriously, great portrait, Emile. #11391086

With an expression like that I think the Monarchs should exercise great caution Emile! What a beautiful cat! #11391200

All them pretty butterflies with their wing action certainly will get a cats attention. He is such a beautiful cat with gorgeous markings. A perfect pose, the colors and details stand out. So pretty Emile. #11391333
