19/365 The Cat's Whiskers

This is Rosie. She is nearly 14 years old and showing her age. I find her very difficult to photograph well as, being black and camera shy, she is hard to focus on and rarely sits still long enough anyway, so this is a rare shot! She was sunbathing for a while in the conservatory between the hail and sleet showers. We have another cat, a white & tabby called Sweetie. I wonder when it'll be her turn to feature in this blog?

  7. I know what you mean about black cats being difficult to photograph. My own 16-year old (not in the best of health recently, unfortunately, although he has picked up a little lately) is called Spock and I have so many pictures of him, but not many that capture that cheeky little face.

    Lovely photo of Rosie, btw. I like the way you've silhouetted her.
