NEOXIAN CITY PHOTO CHALLENGE - PETS

Not really planned but after the Cats of Corfu Island (click to check the post), here are the Cats of my backyard as an answer to @neoxian-city photo challenge.

We have a kinda opened yard so dogs were never an option as pets. And as we all know, cats do love to wonder so i had a fair share of cats (most of them i am sure did not think they are our cats, we were someone who feed them and pet them when they were in the mood)

First photo is my first photo ever taken with DSLR camera. I bought the camera, came home, unboxed it and this was the first photo taken. My cats have pretty generic names :) mostly derivatives of the color :) this one was Žućo (yellovie or something like that). Friend of mine found him as a kitten and as i had no cats at the moment he ended up at my place. And was one of the smartest and (sometimes) well behaved cats ever. If he got in the kitchen he never got on the table, never touched food and if he was left inside he will lay down just to have contact with you.
Also when winter came, he sat at the window of the office, waiting for the client to stop with the car. He would then jump down and position himself to get in. Most people would not even notice that he did that. Then he would try to lay on the keyboard or something like that. So he would end up outside and the process would be repeated only he would now not bother us, he would just lay by the heater.

Unfortunately from that 3 cats only one is still with us. Crnko (blacky) the one eye cat. Gray one was hit by a (most probably) car last year, and that cat on the table just disappeared. But to fill the spot new cat arrived and is not really hated by Blacky so he is now our cat :D

Last two were taken with and old Russian manual lens Helios 44-4 with modified front element just for fun.

I very much enjoyed reading about your cats. I don't normally find men suitable to cats and you seem like quite a manly man however I think you and cats suite each other just fine :)
