This is the Mother of the cute Kitten posted by Dave a few days ago, so this is what it will grow up to be!! Taken in dappled light under trees.

She did not want anyone near her supper.

All comments and critiques always welcome and appreciated and thanks for looking.

Nice shot...definitely not a happy camper. How big are these in relation to a domestic cat?

They are about the same size as a domestic cat Scott - but with a thicker tail than most cats, longer canine teeth, and certainly a fiery personality!
