Seems you have to get a feel for just how the cat is going to be walking in that spot at that exact moment. Then you may only be off 30% of the time. Nice size cat by the way. From what I am reading on this forum and in other places it seems there are a lot of Toms, and nice ones, being caught in Minnesota. Osky Last edited by Osky; 12/13/18 08:09 AM.

Getting a cats face to look natural is a true test of the skill and artistic ability of the taxi. IMO, very few make a cat face look natural. Having a great close up reference pic can only help.
