Cats on Tuesday: Possum's Portrait

Click on the photo to see a large photo in a new browser window.

Hi again everybody! I'm back! And I've been missing this group. Here's Possum. I got a new camera to backup my Canon DSLR (which I almost killed when I fell into the river kayaking — but it's been fixed). This was taken with an Olympus Tough 8000. On the day that I took the photo, I was learning how to use the new camera. And Possum was cooperating for once and looking beautiful as always! Below is her footprint in the snow. It's interesting because usually you don't see cat claws in their tracks. I think she was trying to "hold on" since the snow offered little traction to her little cat paws. I am looking forward to visiting all of you tomorrow evening!


Thank you for stopping by!

  3. Possum looks like a little sweetheart; great colours too! Thanks for dropping by. Yes, it's fun to write but publicity is hard work.

  4. Possum is quite beautiful. It is an interesting name for a cat. How smart she is to extend her claws while walking in the snow.

  8. The little snow paw print is so cute! I don't blame Possum. I would try to keep my paws out of the snow too!
