My gal Lizzie definitely has a regal air about her. She's constantly getting into these marvelous poses. And I just have to document every one of them. I think I have over a thousand photos of her on my phone! I guess I'm a bit obsessed with her. She comes from a long line of Abyssinian cats.

I have no photo of a cat. Maybe thousands of shots in my archives. But no cats. Your gorgeous entries, some of which are bedazzling to me, almost make me want to start liking cats.
I remember taking ONE single photo of a cat, and it was in Cairo. Maybe 20 years ago. She was on a cart in Egyptian surroundings, and I remembered that Egypt and cats had a relationship starting in antiquity. It would take forever to find it, and then it would not measure up to what is already happening in the contests.
That's why I have no entry

I laugh because they have absolutely nothing else to do but solve the puzzles we give them
