In the contest of curls, her tail emerged the clear winner.

I have noticed that tabby cats are usually friendlier – relaxed in front of the camera, and welcoming. Some, like my tortie-with-tabby friend from Ban Khrua, are also aesthetes.

An aesthete, and no beggar.

In the contest of curls, her tail emerged the clear winner over the fence. She also demonstrated the correct downward-facing dog (or rather, downward-facing cat). And all of it free of charge, with no hint of begging.

The correct downward-facing cat.

Feeling proud of her.
