Lens-Artists Challenge: Cats & Dogs

I’ve never been a big fan of pets as a genre. My parents had a couple of dogs when I was a child, the first of which – a mongrel called Scamp suddenly disappeared one day. I found out much later that he had to leave because he’d attacked me. I have absolutely no recollection of this incident, but it could go some way to explaining my, at best, indifference to the idea of owning cats or dogs.

So when it comes to photographs of cats and dogs, this week’s Lens-Artists. theme, the virtual cupboard of my image library is rather bare. However, there was a quite interesting cat mooching around the quiet village of Rancon a few months ago. It was gracious enough to acknowledge our presence. and look straight into the camera phone.
