Mr. Tut Tut


He looks pretty comfortable there, doesn't he.  He doesn't seem to mind having only one eye. My friend showed me several photos, and I immediately knew that this was the one.  He not only looks comfortable, he looks like he owns the place and simply allows his humans to live there too. I didn't know him, but think I would have liked him. 

I'll share my friend's words:

"Thank you, Helen, for honoring Mr. Tut Tut with a beautiful pet portrait. He was adopted many years ago by a cat-loving mountaineer, park ranger who would eventually become my son-in-law. Tut was accompanied by another Maine Coon who Mike named Little Girl. They resided with him in Yosemite National Park and 3 more parks beyond. He was beloved by Mike and Barrie and all who knew him. In Mike’s words, 'He was a singular cat, and everybody loved the big, big guy.' Helen, you captured his spirit."

    1. He does look like a cat you'd like to know, don't you think!
