I left this week's cat photography to the last minute, and then Hopper decided not to be especially cooperative. So this is what you get this week: Hopper on the patio rolling around and wondering why I'm not rubbing her belly. Not to worry, though. She gets plenty of belly rubs around here.

The nice thing about taking photos of cats is that you never have to wait more than a minute or two (if even that long) before the cat gets into a cute position, or performss some cute maneuver, or just sits still being beautiful.
Great natural models, those felines!

Belly rubs are one thing - & she does appear to be inviting one - but what about shoulder massages & under-chin scratching?
