I love the next to last photo, with only his paw in focus. The colors are fantastic. I have a cat this color, and he looks good on EVERYTHING.
I can't touch my cat's back for long either. He was feral not long ago, and is easily spooked. If I touch his back unexpectedly, or leave my hand there too long, he turns to bite me.
True.. she looks good on everything.
Suzi hates being picked up and will allow pets only when she feels like. No belly though and no paws!
