Matted, but Happy

While going to work, I was going to take a picture of a shed with purple shutters in someone's garden, but that's what I zoomed into. A local stray that (without any fur on the back and bunch of matted fur on the tummy) must have taken the chance to warm up after the winter. He/she was kind of curious of my camera sticking through the fence and the bushes, but didn't mind. I didn't either :) I tried to crop it to give it a nice composition, I hope it worked.

As always, I am happy to read your comments, critiques, reactions and feedback. I always very much appreciate your time and opinions. Thank you very much!
Great capture, light...really neat composition

Nicely done. Love the colors and the shapes and textures throughout, and the cat, of course!

Yes it does work. There is a nice pattern of blocks of strong colour and puss neatly on the third on the lighter section looking straight at me.

Oh, thank you so much, everyone, for viewing and commenting! While I was busy and didn't even stop by to thank people, the kitty even took a short trip to the PP (go figure!) thanks to your favs and comments. It was a cool moment to find him/her there - I was zooming onto the little garden house, and then just noticed something moving out of the corner of my eye. And I guess he/she is a natural poser - and a curious one! I don't know if anyone will ever take him/her in, as he/she has been a regular in the neighbourhood for the last couple of years, treating everyone's backyard as his/her own and leading a seemingly prosperous life. But I've never seen it so matted before. I hope the summer will help.
