Description
She's got the look.
I'm afraid I don't even know her name. I forgot to jot it all down before the owner took off again. I'll update this description as soon as I get the details I need. This is an Abyssinian I was fortunate enough to meet yesterday evening. She was very playful and was all over my house before settling down enough to let me take some photos. Beautiful, isn't she? Today, and tomorrow she's attending a cat show. I'll include her results too when I update the description.
Hope you like it!

No, unfortunately I didn't find out how she did. :/

Wow, you are an amazing photographer, first of all! Your shots provide such clairty and detail, it's overwhelming in a most wonderful way. This is, indeed, a very beautiful cat. Her coat looks lovely and she's so lean! Abyssinians are very charming and I really like their coat color. She has such a cute face and her snout seems so short it gives her face such an expressive look. <3 Perfect ears and gorgeous eyes!

That's funny. It looks like my cat, Yuki, when he is agitated. He puts his paw up and punches you in the face. It's so funny. I'm also putting a pic of him up today. lolz.

One of the most gorgeous breeds out there, though they are all beautiful. Like the Maine Coon, she captures the regal grace and beauty of all Cat Breeds (even the ones that like to clown around). And you have captured her in photo. I bow down to your mastery.

My friend greglief likes to spotlight photographers on DA. He would probably love to talk with you, and he's done some amazing wildlife photography, including one of a rattlesnake that probably put him in more danger than is wise, but to him at least it was worth it, and it is a beautiful shot. I recommend you look him up!

I love Abyssinians, have ever since I saw them in an Animal Planet show. Only reason I don't have one was also in the show... They were kidnapped 'cause they were really expensive or something. She's beautiful... And she definitely looks ready to play. But also kinda like she's judging you, I think. It's like, are you worthy of being batted by this lady's regal paw?

hehe, cats are always judgmental of us humans.
Thanks for commenting!

You're welcome! But I dunno about always judgemental... We have this longhair bicolor something-or-other, and she loves us no matter what we do. Her brother and sister think they're the king and queen, though. Put a toe out of line and they're like, "What exactly do you think you're doing?" What complete opposites. Hard to tell they're even related.

Adorable! I have an abyssinian cat myself, and she looks exactly like her! I love that pose she has going with that one paw up. My cat does that all the time, when shes after a pat! Love it! A deffinate fav!
