To err is human; to purr is feline

I got home after work and still needed to take today's picture. I won't give away what my set-up was in case I need to use it in a future post, but I grabbed some decorative artefacts from the house to take photos of in the garden. After a few shots, I heard a "meow".

This black cat was looking right at me. I took a few snaps from a distance and at first it didn't seem particularly perturbed - or so I thought - so I got closer and took some more. It then starting meowing incessantly, and I think it may have been scared of jumping off the fence. It seemed to struggle a bit and looked a bit agitated, so I offered to pick it up to move it but it was having none of it. The cat looked like it would scratch or bite me if I tried to touch it.

Another busy day at work. In yesterday's post I mentioned that I thought the quality of my photos may deteriorate over the next few weeks as work gets busier. However, I forgot to mention what will almost wholly consume my life over the coming month; the World Cup! I can't wait.

He definitely looks like he's telling you off. Maybe you scared its bird away. Great photo
