Oh I just luv this….What a great cat…..mine has too much fur
shygrrrl
Aw thanks. She certainly rocks my world.
Stephen Colquitt
I love a nice bit of saggy cat skin. Nice use of the negative white space on this one shygrl
gaypony
so do mine sharon.
i think “normal” cats look strangely exotic.
this is a beautiful picture
Tiffany Dryburgh
So beautiful. I love the little tufts of hair at the tips of her ears and those gorgeous folds of skin on her chest and those big green eyes… I could carry on for some time!

He’s so skinny !!!
I love cats with big ears…They certainly look funny with no fur
My Tonk has big ears too…but yours are BIGGER
Jienn Heibloem
this is lovely
Michael Douglass
I’m not a big fan of bats but it’s a good shot.
Jessica Tremp
shygrrl, this is fantastic…love it…how gorgeous is your cat too…all the more cuddles for you when it’s cold outside
shygrrrl
Thanks everyone for you great comments. I’m feeling all warm and fuzzy on Maggie’s behalf. (which I suppose is probably the first time she has ever felt warm and fuzzy – being nude and all) I was expecting quite a few exclamations of anguish and horror. Most people who have never seen a Devon are a bit taken aback at first. That is until they get to know one. BEST personalities. Especially when they “ask ” you to please throw ‘Red Mouse’ (may he rest in peace – we suspect eaten accidentally – and repaced by Grey Mouse who is fun, but just not the same) for a game of fetch and retrieve.
Kalb, they do look just like bats. Kind of a cross between a bat and a monkey :)
Mel Brackstone
She’s absolutely gorgeous, and your framing is superb. This is one of those purrrrrfect shots :)
Sharon Hammond
I have a pic of my neighbour’s Rex (it has crinkly hair & wrinkles)....they are an aquired taste
shygrrrl
Thanks Mel :)
Ah yes Sharon, Maggies is desperately trying to grow a winter coat, so she has very crinkly hair around her hind legs and tail. It looks like I have permed her. Poor kid lol.
zee1
OOOOHHH AHHH, it has come up so well shygrrrl, the kids are stars!!!!!!! I love the white backdrop it just frames her beautifully.
Heaps of comments too, lots of love for Mags, yeah.
Good to see you back on here with more stuff as well. Ignore work it is over rated just keep dazzling doing this lol:)
Tane
im adoring maggie! what an amazing shot!! loving the look on her face .. it almost feels like she s thinking about these words..^^’hmm whats in there, ill sit and wait and then go check out maybe.. this is looking suspicious’
mrana
wonderful! Great cat, expression and composition.
Paul Vanzella
Brilliant – love your use of space and toning work – Great image!
Kyra Webb
Meow meow!! :p Gorgeous kitty.
shygrrrl
Little Mag is gonna get a big head after this. Before I know it she will become the diva from hell and demand a trailer stocked with mountain stream water and blue m&m’s…
zee1
She will also demand that Bronson brings her Red Mice on demand because thats what Diva’s do, make slaves of others. Then she puts on that cute smile and all is forgiven:)
winnierose
I’ll help her head swell more. Its just lovely. The position everything just works.
shygrrrl
Yay!! Thanks so much. I’ll go give her a hug for being so cute :)

Cute cat nice pic
gail
such a great portrait
Emma King
If i am anything i am a cat lover, and I think i prove this when i say i am a fan of the Devon Rex; the most ugly and unattractive of cats if you had to chose one. They fascinate me with their wrinkly skin and velvety texture. This shot really captures the extreme characteristics of their person and appearance. What I mean to say is I really love this shot, and I love Devon Rex’s.
shygrrrl
Haha, so true Emma, they are a bizarre looking animal, that’s for sure. It’s the “ugly” about them that makes them so appealing to me too. The funny thing is, once you have one, they become beautiful and all other cats instead look strangely fluffy with short ears, thick necks and roundy bodies :)
Ivy Izzard
It’s a wonderful portrait, she’s exquisite.
shygrrrl
Thanks so much Ivy. She’s really done me proud :)
sharon symonds
i am a confirmed dog lover, but this kitty has won my heart. such an intelligent looking feline! yet still she shows curiosity and coyness. lovely shot.
shygrrrl
Thanks Shazz. You would love these cats… they fetch and retrieve, and wag their tails when they are happy – just like dogs.
zee1
Whoooo Hooooo. Maggie has made it to the top 7 pages of all time in the gallery as of today. A star is born, a cuddly star.
shygrrrl
I am so proud. I have become the stage mother from hell. Tomorrow she gets her hair and make-up done, and next week she starts deportment lessons.
Nicole Goggins
she is soooooooooo cute! the neg. space is gr8…
shygrrrl
Thanks Nicole. I’m really pleased with the way she turned out.
Leeo
That is sooo gorgeous! Love the expression you’ve captured.
shygrrrl
Heh, thanks Leeo :)
transmute
I’m going to comment, before Maggie eats my mouse…
JoLennox
Lol. Great photo! Maggies expression is so funny. I suspect she was off like a shot pretty soon after the taking of this? So hard to get that level intense inquisitiveness without them chasing the bait! Well captured.
shygrrrl
Thanks Jo. She was actually posing all on her own, just happily showing off. One of those unbelievably lucky shots.
LOL Chris. She WANTS that mouse.
AnaBanana
ooohhh so so cute i love it!! poor thing looks cold LOL! it is a beautiful picture and a beautiful cat
shygrrrl
LOL thanks Ana. She IS cold. She refuses to get out of bed in the mornings, preferring to ignore the Winter by staying well under the covers. Perhaps i will buy her a jumper? I’ll be sure to photograph the indignity though :)
PennyEdwardes
I would have to say your kitty rocks!!! Awesome photo! Do you have her on your wall?
shygrrrl
Thanks Penny, no not yet. I do have a card of her on the way though. I am very excited. She’ll be on proud display on my desk at work :)
Nicole Goggins
I recieved my order of cards from redbubble and just wanted to let you know how fantastic this one looks – the quality of both the card and the image is brilliant! couldn’t be happier…
shygrrrl
OMG you bought my Maggie!!! Thankyou SO much. You rock!!! I just told her and she is stoked. She is purring away. :)
The Bunny Theory
I love your Maggie!!! She is so adorable without getting too fluffy cute.
shygrrrl
aw thanks. She is trying to get fluffy for winter… it’s not working out though :)
zee1
Shygrrrl she is so high on the all time favourites list, highest kitty there. You should be so proud Mags is going to be famous.
shygrrrl
I would be proud Zee, except with all this attention, she has become unbearable. She demands her own trailer now, and it has to be bigger than anyone elses, she only works every second day and only after 11am. All food must be catered especially and sent from Nobu in LA. She will wear nothing nut Prada, and even then, only if it is supplied free for the publicity. Her demands are becoming more ridiculous by the day…
Rose Moxon
adorable pic!
shygrrrl
Thanks Rose. :)
Sarah Moore
she’s beautiful…but i like the chinese crested dogs so i may be a little warped!!! no really its a great photo!
shygrrrl
No, those dogs rock! If i had to get a dog, that is the breed I would choose. There is something so immensely appealing about the funny looking, nudie animals… you kind of expect them to have warped sense of humour to match. If our Devons are anything to by… the theory works.
Anne van Alkemade
she looks adorable – cold, but adorable
do you knit?
Anne van Alkemade
I keep looking at this photo again and again. It’s so cool.
shygrrrl
Yay! Thanks so much Anne. I don’t knit. I wish I did though, because I have all these patterns for little jumpers for her…
trickyruby
its cute looks like its cold, knit it a coat!! great shot
Ruben Flanagan...
I love the photo, and the Devon Rex breed, I have a Sphinx that is 6mths
shygrrrl
You have a shpinx??? I am SO jealous. I would have got one but couldn’t find a breeder anywhere near me. The Devons were the closest I could get.
snurfdood
what a gorgeous cat..I hope the Winter is a mild one for her :o)
Jamie Lee
Fabulous cat!!!!!!!!!
Alyson Pearson
hehe, what a cutey!
and love the use of white space :)
Simone Maynard
great shot
marie223
Awwww. She looks so lonely.
I love her so much! :D I just want to hug her, and give her a blanket. Haha.
Steven Sandner
What a cutie. You should get it one of those little jackets!
Sticky Flower
oh i want one just like her! lovely photograph, I love all the space around her.
Treehugger
Really love this pic! She’s adorable! i like the use of negative space :)
