Watchful Cat

4x5.5 watercolor and ink line (Micron 01) on paper, a Southern Living magazine travel card insert.  Luckily my magazine came early so I was able to grab the annoying paper cards and busily plan which kitties to feature on the Facebook cat challenge along with WetCanvas!  This fellow is Hungry Jack, another rescue from a few years ago, who sat under the street lamp across from our front door.  He was hunting bugs to eat as he was starving; very tame and loveable, he was either lost or was tossed out.  One of our employee's cats had to be put down so was able to find him a home within a few months.  I loved Jack as he found a baby snake in my kitchen and caught it.  God bless cats!
