 This cute little girl has been hanging around for the past three or four days. We get a lot of visitors in the nighttime, but she has been here around the clock. She is very shy, but seems to want to make friends. Some frickin' idiot probably threw her out when she was no longer a cute kitten; that happens a lot around here. Anyhoo...I've got to befriend her before she gets knocked up, it's that time of year. Meanwhile, I thought she deserved some bling! So I used a snapshot I took of one of my recent creations in the shop.

She is sooo pretty! (even without the bling). I hope she comes around so you can get her spayed.

The image is fantastic - awesome how you integrated the necklace with her fur.

I thought she was wearing it.. Imagine a pampered kitty getting to wear some sweet jewels..
Actually now I'm sad to hear she isn't quite as pampered. She is a stunner though so befriend her, quick!

And I meant to say, this totally rocks. You could name her Elizabeth Taylor, & call her ET for short. "D

Excellent processing. I thought you'd really put the bling on the kitty! Doesn't she just look the real princess? She's lucky to have found an advocate.

That is just too cool - worrying thing is it really suits her !!

I think you are building her hopes a bit too high when she needs her next collar :- )

Colleen, what a pretty kitty! Nice job with the overlay. She looks so much like our Tiger. She died a couple of months after I took this photo of her at age twenty.
