You have reminded me of a cat of mine getting his tail on fire on one cold occasion! Too close! Very smooth b&w, too.

Near the stove, on the TV, under the lamp, in the kotatsu. They really like warm place:) This is very cute shot.

So funny; I agree with GJC that face and posture just sums up 'satisfaction'!
