Random cat. Of those you meet on someone else's street and immediately realize that it's not just a passerby, it's a local legend.
I found him when I was walking around the city at a friend's house. He sits on the fence, his paws are hanging down, his eyes are narrowed - and his whole appearance says one thing: he is in charge here, and you are just passing by. The coat is smoky gray, thick, with a whole mane around the face. Looks like a little lion who decided to live in a sleeping area.
The funniest thing is the pose. It lies so relaxed, as if the fence is not a wooden structure with uneven boards, but a soft sofa. The paw hangs carelessly over the edge, the head is slightly lowered - the classic "I'll think about you tomorrow" pose.
I stopped to take a picture, he didn't even take an eye. No curiosity about the person with the phone. Full dignity and zero fuss.
I don't know who the owners are. Maybe a local, maybe just walks around in neighboring yards, as cats with character like to do. But judging by the appearance, he is satisfied with life, controls the territory, is not afraid of people and generally feels like the full owner of this fence.
Sometimes the best shots appear just like this - without planning anything, you just walk down the street and suddenly see such a character 馃樇
