Brillant capture Mary! I have never been able to get a shot of a cat in the snow.
Mary MacADNski: Perhaps you have fair weather cats. Bella does not like snow much but Kenz loves it.

I think the accompanying song might have been "Don't it make yer Brown Eye Blue", Mary.
Kenz looks so pretty against the white snow... especially her carpal pads... smile
Mary MacADNski: Yes she took imprints of her paws just so that we could check out the carpal pads.
Great portrait of Kenz enjoying the first snow Mary... it sure brings out the colour of his coat... with Buddy... it's hard to get a shot of him without his head buried in the snow lol....petersmile
Mary MacADNski: Kenz likes snow but Bella is not taken with it.
what a sweetie
He looks like he is enjoying it. Our two were bemused by it and kammy was most unimpressed!
Mary MacADNski: She was happy with her first snow.
A lovely shot Mary, we don't see much snow, so when we do our Bruce is most put out, smile
Mary MacADNski: This vat likes snow but the other is not crazy about it.
Mine's lying in front of the Aga, keeping warm - and there's no snow yet!
Mary MacADNski: Cats love their heat source!

You mean he actually LIKES snow Mary??
Mary MacADNski: Kenz does but Bella does not.
Yes indeed, looking purrrrfectly at home in it. We are enjoying a balmy 12 degrees celsius today
Mary MacADNski: We were 15 yesterday but 6 today. This left as quickly as it came. Got people to wake up and get their snow tires on and their shovels out of the shed.

Looks like she already made paw prints in the snow? Are the happy happy to go out in weather like this or do they need a little helping foot? wink
Mary MacADNski: This cat likes to be out in snow but Bella does not really. She liked going out this day. as it was first snow but will stay in most days when Kenz goes out.

Important information to defend yourself against an attack by a cat. If your put your finger in the centre of their front paw pads their claws cannot reach you and do damage ... but watch out for the other paw that will come and swipe at you. [grin]
Mary MacADNski: I pet Knnz's paw just where you say. She like it.

But don't try this with a Tiger
Hi Mary.... It's been a long time since I've had a chance to drop in to see your photos. I hope all is well. What a nice picture of a lovely cat. Cats always look cute in the snow. Thanks for sharing. All the best! Iain.
Mary MacADNski: I know! You were gone for a while. Busy, busy busy.
Doesn't she look lovely - could she be getting more used to your camera?! smile
Mary MacADNski: She is a poser and doen not mind the camera. Her sister is a different story and does not like the camera at all.

Such a beauty, and a lovely photo.
Mary MacADNski: She is a lovely gal.
OH that's right!! I'm sorry I got her confused with your Bella for a moment!! No wonder she's posing so well!
Mary MacADNski: That's her job. LOL
