SteemitPhotoChallenge - Animal Portrait II Entry 1

in cats •  8 years ago 

Hello Steamites,

I absolutely adore animals and we have two European short-haired cats. I'll firstly introduce you to them both individually and give you a back story to how they have now become part of the family. Below is our beloved 'Dusty' and she was a stray that somehow found her way into our hearts and we had to beg our Mum to allow her to stay, often hiding her as she wasn't keen on the idea of a cat being in her house at first. The word from the other villagers was that she had been wandering the village for weeks crying at people's doors until she came across us. We now live in our own house and here's Dusty appreciating the gorgeous sunset.

Dusty is a very sensitive cat and super vocal. She was so upset when we took in our second cat that she cried and skulked around the house all-day for months, until she finally accepted another cat into the family. This is the famous Dusty massage that we often get, when she's a happy kitty! :-D

Both your cats are beautiful - as Poe once wrote, I wish I could write as mysterious as a cat - fortunately, my cat is a muse :)

I Love cats! Had 2 before, now only one with the name Eyes!

Cats are the best and I assume one had passed over to Kitty heaven and the other is called Eyes? That's an original name for a cat and it is gender neutral, so even better. I must be honest and say that I would feel a tad uncomfortable shouting "Eyes, Eyes, Dinner, Eyes". :-D Very sweet though Raz!
