Well Fed

I hope everyone had a good Christmas!
Street cats in Naha, Okinawa.
Although I'm now in England, this blog will still feature photos from Japan for the foreseeable future.
I apologise in advance if I'm tardy with commenting on your blogs or returning comments during the week... I will get to you though!

Well they do look well fed and they don't seem to take notice of you so they must be fairly docile for street cats. Excellent shot here. Well done.

Great capture. These cats look content. I like the broom move effect!

I love this soooo much, I adore cats and I love how they are cared after...I've never seen that before. How lovely!

@Lorraine: It's funny Lorraine... cats you see on the street in Japan are SO nervous, they rarely let you approach them, unlike back in the UK (maybe because if you see a cat on the street in the UK, it's someone's pet out for a wander, whereas in Japan they'd be feral). But the ones in this park were all friendly! I guess they are well taken care of and are very used to humans.
@kavita: Cheers kavita!
@Cheryl: Thanks Cheryl!

Oh, friendly cats in Japan - that is rather unusual. I'm happy for them. I love the stillness of the scene with the motion of sweeping. Great stuff!
