Don't Cross My Path

West Virginia

This is a stray cat I've been feeding. I'm also using him for "Hug Your Cat Day," but I'm lucky to be able to get a photograph. Maybe some day in the future, he will be tame enough to hug. But rignt now....

Stray Cat Strut
Stray Cats

Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh,
Black and orange stray cat sitting on a fence
Ain't got enough dough to pay the rent
I'm flat broke but I don't care
I strut right by with my tail in the air

Stray cat strut, I'm a ladies' cat,
A feline Casanova, hey man, thats where its at
Get a shoe thrown at me from a mean old man
Get my dinner from a garbage can

Yeah don't cross my path

I don't bother chasing mice around
I slink down the alley looking for a fight
Howling to the moonlight on a hot summer night
Singing the blues while the lady cats cry,
"Wild stray cat, you're a real gone guy."

I wish I could be as carefree and wild,
But I got cat class and I got cat style.

I don't bother chasing mice around
I slink down the alley looking for a fight
Howling to the moonlight on a hot summer night
Singing the blues while the lady cats cry,
"Wild stray cat, you're a real gone guy."

I wish I could be as carefree and wild,
But I got cat class and I got cat style.

I'm hoping that some day you'll be able to pet him! Great photo!

Has gorgeous eyes!!!!! One day he/she will trust you enough. I have two strays that I've adopted. One lets me hug her now, the other one, can't get that close yet. A fantastic image, girl! V

Love his eyes

Those are some evil looking eyes, Karen. I once tried to pet a wild tomcat that I'd been feeding for weeks. I still have two long white scars on my hand. He didn't get fed after that.
Best regards,
Dick:)

I'm sure he'll stick around and get to know you. He's a handsome cat.

Straycat song is one of my all time favorites. :) Poor kitty, he's so luck to have found you!

Oh, he is beautiful. But he does look a bit wary at the moment. He is very like my Piccolo! Love the music too, I remember this from when the Stray Cats were around!

Fearsome! V.

Great capture. I have a cat just like this but can never get a good capture of the eyes. This breed is very gentle and gentlemanly so give him a chance, as I know you will.

Wonderful cat, cool scene and music. V.

You find the most interesting music videos! Excellent shot and video to go with it, Karen! I'd love to give him a hug, he's a beautiful cat. \/

You're right he doesn't look very huggable right now and you captured that wild wariness in him really well. He'll come around though. Great video too.
