Description
Closeup of (N)Oliveroci's Ella (I think!) .. Notice her whiskers. They've been chewed off by her mother. All the kittens were subject to this treatment. I've seen this behavior before, but I have no idea why cat-moms do it. Hope you like this photo!

Edit: I just realized how similar Ella's pose is to Oliver, her dad's pose! Check it out Age wise in the photos, they're only a few weeks apart.

Full view highly recommended!

Some facts:
Breed: Ocicat
Gender: female
Color:Black/silver spotted tabby (OCI ns 24 )

Quick FAQ:
"How many cats do you really have??"
I get asked this quite a lot. And I 'only' have two cats myself. They can be seen in my deviant ID . For more questions and answers, check out my FAQ journal.

"Can I use this image for [purpose]?"
I get asked this quite a lot too. Some don't even ask. My images are not stock and should not be treated as such. You may not use my images for manipulations and you may not submit my images to any other site. You may however use any of my images as a reference to a drawing or painting.
