Well, she's looking pretty darned mellow. She must have already had her cake and ice cream, too! Now she is just CHILLIN'!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KODY and FANGY SENDS HIS LOVE!

Great Job, Chris!

Chris Ebben August 28, 2009

It was very easy to wake her, we just walked past with the parcel of prawns. She has has a lovely couple of days. You have no idea how much she knows & how much she helped Tony after his accident, I sometimes don't think he would have made it with out her constant care & watching him. She was the one who got him out of bed everyday & walking around. I better shut-up now....... #7894923

Chris Ebben September 02, 2009

Kody is beautiful Chris - you are both very deserving of this Editor's Pic #8008623

Chris Ebben October 05, 2009

Well thanks a lot for your thoughts on this one. I can't begin to tell you how pleased I am that this one got a EP. Kody is having so much fun helping clear up after the surprise wedding. Actually, she was on quality control before it started.... some-one has to test the prawns. #8009123

Sounds like this beautiful cat has a wonderful life, Chris! Love the eyes, pose, clarity & comp! VEry well done! #10122430

Chris Ebben May 04, 2012

Thanks so much Patrick. At present we are spending a week away in the caravan with her, taking her for walks & giving her treats, prawns. Kody will be 19 this August. #10123075

Wm Nosal May 05, 2012

Great Shot, Chris!
and A Belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY Kody! #10125105

Mary K. Robison May 06, 2012

Almost 19??
Chris, I'm coming over to your house with Riley, age 11, who needs to learn first-hand the secret of aging well, and for so long. Kody looks SO good in this capture!
Kody deserves every prawn (and Whiting fillet) she gets for taking such good care of Tony after his accident.
And "they" (all the dog people) say cats are too aloof and lacking in affection...Hah! #10125648

Chris Ebben May 06, 2012

Thank you both so much, form both Kody & I. If I could only show you how much Kody looks after Tony when he isn't well, she doesn't lack affection. You should have seen her protecting him when the ambos came to take him to hospital. #10125697

Stefania Barbier May 07, 2012

BEAUTIFUL! #10127206

Patrick Rouzes June 05, 2012

WOW, Chris, love the eyes, tones, detail, clarity & pose! Exceptionally captured , my friend!
Happy Birthday, Kody!

Going to your house for my birthday!

Chris Ebben June 06, 2012

Thank you both for the lovely comments. It won't be all that long to her next birthday, 11 weeks, have to make sure there is plenty of prawns & fresh fish. #10170173

Connie J. Bagot August 27, 2012

She is very beautiful, especially her eyes, and I love the way you caught her looking at you----so VERY "cat." #10292221
