This has got to be one of the cutest kitten pictures we have ever received here on Band of Cats. This is Lynx. He belongs to Eric and is one of three kittens born a few weeks ago.

Kitten Lynx

Everything about this picture is just ideal, the focus on just the face the warm green background, the beautiful blue eyes of Lynx and his slightly dropping kitten ears. It’s a great portrait of Lynx and we really appreciate Eric sending it to us to share with everyone.

We hope to see pictures of the other kittens if Eric is able to take some more pictures and send them to us. We would gladly add them to this post so Lynx isn’t all by himself. Eric did include a small message with his Kitten picture of Lynx. He is what he had to say…

This is one of the three cats that were born a few weeks ago. He is just starting to walk and he is still feeding from her mother. The kittens name is Lynx since we though he looked a bit like one.

Thanks again Eric. We love the kitten picture. Please let us know what you think of Lynx in the comments.

What’s the next best thing to having a cool photograph of your Cat? How about an ultra-super-realistic painting of your cat? A painting was done of our Spooky a little while ago and it was very exciting. It was a unique piece of art that you just can’t get with a digital camera. Even though we believe that photography is a very strong art form as well, a painting can offer another way of capturing the essence of our furry feline friends.

Here are two videos of Photo Realistic Cat painting and drawing you just have to see. We thought they were very well done.

A surviving kitten from the Japan Earthquake

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the people, Dogs, Cats and other animals of Japan as they deal with the horrifying devastation from last weeks Earthquake and Tsunamis. There are many ways we can all help and a number of articles have appeared with information of organizations involved in animal rescue.

A good place to start is the Google 2011 Japan Crisis Response Page with News, Maps, a People Finder, organizations accepting donations and regular updates.

Meet Budward, aka:Buddy. Buddy is one in a family of five cats. A chocolate Tabby who rules the roost from what we have been told. He comes to us from one of our readers, who also sent us a couple of great pictures. One picture is Buddy in the Christmas tree and the other picture, well, we’ll let you read what their owners had to say about how they got that hilarious, unique picture…

“This is Budward . He’s a 4 year old Domestic Shorthair “Chocolate Tabby,” and 15.5 lbs of purring fury-the-cat ambassador of our family to the outer world (greeting friends, family, and enemies [ie neighbor dogs] with the same grace and aplomb.)
