(Click on the photo for a bigger version) I get tormented to let them out, which we donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t usually do in winter, and when I open the door they just sit there leaving me to freeze as all the heat goes out of the room. ItÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s lovely having kitties :) (This is Indy, a Siamese Blue Point) flam ing balloons ID: 680161 ·

Andrea (Wife) thinks he/she is gorgeous! My thanks to Andrea. Indy is a Siamese he, Tiffany the Burmese a she. I took the photos this morning thinking that I have to take a couple to start off this competition. It's impossible to get cats to pose and more of a matter of luck to catch them in a decent pose. This morning I was lucky. This is the very first photo I took this morning which I am giving the title of "Puss nearly in Boots" (Click on the photo for a bigger version) They say that the post important thing about portraits are the eyes, and I'm always happy when I get some of that wonderful blue of Indy's eyes flam ing balloons ID: 680217 ·
