Cat, recumbent

Here's a tight closeup of our contortionist cat, Mister Gato, sleeping happily with his head resting lightly on his hind leg.

Note the coffee-bean toes.

Pull the shot back just a tad, and you'll notice that he is sleeping on a much-beloved box, with a blue fleece baby blanket (Wal-Mart, 99 cents) on top... with one leg hanging over the side.

This much cuteness should be illegal.

Don't wake the kitty.
