 My little girl LuiLui pronounced LoyLoy meaning little girl. She is Himalayan about 12 years old. We learned this week she has severe heart disease and has not much time left. Posting is more for her than to see where I place. She seems to be contemplating life and her short future. Wonderful animal loved having her as my pet.

Crop, contrast, clarity, vibrance and temperature adjustments made.

A more direct (face-on) angle would make this more striking. I think for most cats, the eyes make/break the shot.
