Cat looks a little too healthy to have been abandoned with the house. Great framing on this one. Love the title.

very nicely done...coloring and context show abandonment...thinking more the building than the cat though...*smile* Kitty looks well taken care of, thankfully! :)

Oh what an excellent composition. A true guardian of his domain, abandoned and all.

Nice lighting. I like the blackness of the room in contrast to the illumination of the cat. And his glowing eyes really grab the attention.

I think the framing feels a little awkward on this one - either add a little more wood on the top or take it away from the left? I like the cat's shape against the blackness.
