Feral Gus is a delightful boy and a master in the art of sustained stretching. Here are his classic poses: the Hanging Gardens and the Shotgun. Lots of cats do the latter -- lie with their back legs shot straight out behind them, double-barrel style. I have many photos of Gus in this pose, but doing it on a dumpster seems the ultimate in zen.
I love the Hanging Gardens pose! My parents have an older siamese who loves to hang out like this on the arm of wooden bench in their backyard. She's quite a large cat, though -- it's amazing she can balance herself!
I design and make retro modern cat beds. My lifelong collection of remarkable vintage fabrics is matched only by a lifelong devotion to my collection of remarkably rescued and formerly feral cats.
(Like Kittysville is really a reference to our home.)
The junior cat lady in the photo is me with the original Wampus.
