I love this post! I've taken care of cats (one way or another) just about all my life, and yet I learned from this piece! For example, the structure of the cat's head and jaw. Yes, I did notice cats can squeeze into the most improbable places.

Your pictures are beautiful. Anyone who loves animals will delight in them.

Thank you for this blog. I am reposting so others may enjoy it.
