This photo of Smarty had actually been taken the previous summer.
I've always loved it despite the crappy background because I don't have many shots of his full body and here you can see his awesome fluffy ringed tail properly :3 I guess it looks like the tail of a raccoon or red panda and I assure you that it's extra-soft to the touch!
On a side note, I know it may seem that he was posing for me, but I actually had to attract his attention with a random toy. I also truly like the great colour match between the table cloth and the cat's eyes, which was fortuitous, since my mother bought that cloth and I didn't have any other.
This deviation participated in the Animal Portraits Contest promoted by *DeniseSoden
My other entry DayDreamer got the 7th Place!

In the revamp, I improved the contrast, sharpness, and color balance, and updated the watermark. This shot really didn't need much additional postprocessing.

Before I even read the comments I thought his tail was just like a raccoons. He's so cute, I LOVE that pose.

The problem with him is that you must find something he's interested in to make him look at you, and then every shot with his eyes is perfect!

That's quite lovely. is the cat really so red or is that the contrast of the green against it fooling my eyes?

He's more orange than red (here it looks so red because of the contrast against the green cloth) but yes, his coat is quite bright.

Layla likes his tail, too! When they play together her favorite game is catch it and bite it.

No, they fight everyday but it's a fake fight so they never get hurt.
