ok, let me just say, this cat scared the @#$% out of me.

I was getting ready one morning and was running thru the house trying to leave and then I passed by the large picture window and stopped dead because I though I felt someone watching me. I looked and there was a cat sitting in my courtyard (it came into our yard past a gate) and it was just stone cold staring at me with piercing neon-yellow eyes. I stared back and then walked forward a few steps, then back a few and it just followed me with it's eyes back and forth. Super creepy. Then I tried to go outside but of course it ran away. Later when I was going to my car it was sitting in front of my car staring at me again! I had to scare it away by revving my engine and then I forgot about it until 2 weeks later when it came in the cortyard again. This time I threw some tuna at it b/c I was worried it wasn't eating, but it didn't eat it, it just kept freaking staring at me. Then I got all paranoid thinking it was trying to give me a sign or something stupid (like a grim). Much to my relief a couple days later I found a sign about a cat that had been missing for a month, a called up the guy and emailed him some pics and told him where I saw it. I never saw the kitty again so I hope he picked him up, otherwise that cat might come back to haunt me again...Dum DUM DUMMMM!!!

lol

This was taken when I chased it w/my camera into my neighbor's yard.

I think this is a cool picture! The expression on this kitty's face is priceless! She looks extremely curious, but at the same time, looks somewhat nervous of her surroundings.

Really well done. Terrific focus and composition. I love the range of grey tones. :~)
