Simply breathtaking. The beauty and intensity of the Dusky Eagle-Owl. There’s a quiet power in this upward glance.

    The more photos I’ve been getting of these, the more house cat I’m seeing in the face. Just look at this dapper little kitty!

          Hah! I hope the kitten fairy stays away from me for a bit. She’s sleeping peacefully on my chest now, after terrorizing Senior and me until daylight. My hands, fingers and legs look like plowed fields. She’s being stubborn about learning gently playing, making me wonder how many generations of stray is in this little fluffbomb! By the by, she’s grown from a few oz to almost 3 lbs. I worked wormed her, thinking it would slow her down a bit. Not a chance! On the plus side, it didn’t cause intestinal distress, so that’s a plus.

          How are you doing? Is your wedding this year?

            Loving cats can be rough, literally! 😁

            We’re getting married this November. I just booked our plane tickets for the honeymoon!

            I want to rent a convertible and go around looking for Burrowing Owls!

              I’m so excited for you both! I think both the convertible and owl hunting seems fun (and hopefully the missus will find it entertaining)! I hope you will post pictures of any you discover!

            The overall proportions are perfect for a house kitty. The shape of the head and the size and location of the eyes and ears. Switch the beak out for a nose, elongate the risk bristles, and whammo! Instant tabby.
