That’s cute. ^^ I love the eyes and the bow, well, actually, all of the colouring in her face.

Particularly appreciate the way the photog has used a wide lens to get that bug-eyed look…I’m assuming that it was intentional rather than serendipitous.

Wow! I love entries like this. Seeing the process is really enlightening as opposed to just the finished project all the time.

I don’t think that’s the persons’ pet, I’ve seen that picture on a site full of similar photos, and they’re on a japanese server.

The skulls on her chest are great too, I just wanna skin her and hang it on my wall! ^_^
Participially love the bow, and the care-bear heart nose. Oh, too damn cute.

Why does anyone care if that photo is actually her kitten? Could just be Shannon mistaken that it’s her kitten or she could have picked the photo because it looks like her kitten and her’s won’t stay still long enough to take a photo (the only photos I’ve ever managed to get of my cats are when they’re sleeping). It’s a cute picture and an extremely cute tattoo.

Noadi is correct that the assumption that it’s her kitten was on my end. So I apologize if my knowledge of internet kittens is not encyclopedic 😉
