Ok, I fully expect this one to be a train wreck coming in somewhere in the low 4's. Last minute idea, but I have spent a lot of time not entering challenges because I wanted to have the shot. I'm done with that. These days, I think I'm going to try having fun! (Trying to get a cat to pose can be kind of fun! Really!) :)

It's a little out of focus and the brightness of the bone is a little distracting for me.

Smart cat. Leaves the diversion there so when the dog comes by, it goes for the Rawhide Bone, not for the Cat!

I know that look all too well... I hope this isn't usually how your cat acts! Great shot!

Great angry cat face! There must be a dog somewhere that she could give that to! The top of the cat's head needs more contrast from the black backgroune.

This got my only 10 in this challenge. I love the concept of getting a cat a dog bone for Christmas!

What a fantastically funny shot. I would appreciate tighter focus - seems a bit soft unfortunately. Still very fun.
