Description

My new kitten, Oscar, after getting OUT of the boot I had him in to photograph him! He is so much fun :) Last night we let him roam the house free overnight for the first time, and he slept all night with one of my daughters :) I can just tell he is going to be a great cat! :)

This is not cropped much - it is how I took the shot. Slightly dodged and burned, contrast added.
