What affects us affects cats
This is a really good cat picture. It is unusual to this sort of quality in a photo taken by a non-professional photographer. The cameras help nowadays and I mean smartphones. The optics are amazing and the chips are awesome. You don’t need a 35mm sensor SLR anymore as smartphones have 50-million-pixel chips and …
An in-house security camera video clip shows a toddler crawling towards the top of some hard stairs. In the video, we don’t see the stairs going down but we do see a still photo on the Metro website (see below in the montage) which appears to confirm that the toddler was at the top …
This female cat with an amazing mane and a cracking ‘blaze’ (the straight line down the bridge of the nose) needs a modelling agent because she’s good enough to be a celebrity. A mane like this in a domestic cat is rare and often seen on a Maine Coon but this cat does not …

This is a picture of an Exotic Shorthair (short haired extreme Persian) that tells us that the famous two-faced cat, Venus, is not that unique and even not that unusual. I also have a picture of two two-faced cats (2 x Venus look-a-likes) on this page. This cat has the classic Venus face – …
As I understand it a ‘blaze’ in the world of cats is a line caused by the demarcation between two colors of fur on, usually, calico (tortoiseshell and white) and tortoiseshell cats. You will often see this line on the nose of the cat and it is usually right down the middle. The demarcation …
