Description Finally some new photos from me.
This is one of the many charmers I met at a local cat shelter. There are 192 cats living together in this house! It's a pretty big house and there are many volunteers making sure the cats are well fed and all mess is cleaned up. For some cats, this will be the last place they go. Others might just find a new home. And I do hope very much that I can help some of these cats find new homes. They were all hungry for attention when I visited, and I was also amazed that so many cats could live in harmony like that.

There will be a few more photos from this place. And I do hope to go back and take some more photos.
Hope you enjoy this photo!

Full view highly recommended!

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. Please send me a note if you use my images for reference.

Heeey, why did you call him "poser"?)
He's got so significant whiskers and that's why he can't be poser!

He looks so much like my Aunt's cat Edgrrr (I named the boy in my pictures after him!); a very beautiful cat. You know, my sister was once taking pictures of my cat, and he was literally posing just like this! He has this cardboard scratching toy with catnip on it because NO couch is safe in my house, and he was lying on it and rolling around; at one point he was flat on his back ontop of it and looking right at the camera!

Do you use these pictures to advertise the shelter you go to? Sounds like it would be good publicity for the cats.

I've offered the shelter the images to use, but I haven't heard back from them yet. I guess they must be rather busy seeing this is the vacation season. Thanks for commenting

Awww, what a sweet little thing! How could anyone abandon it?!?

I would take it home right now if...

a) I lived in Norway (that's where it is right?)

and b) If my Sid wouldn't attack it on sight (he HATES other pussycats)

Oh well. Hopefully someone will pick the little mite up soon.

I adopted my cat Maverick from an animal rescue place, I have a definite belief that the animals already i the rescues should be given a home first, no matter their age.
