It takes a bit of convincing
...to express some affection to Stepan

You're not supposed to do that...
Some tasty bits of the little one's meal on the floor and he just couldn't help it...:
No! This is human food, not good for you...
...And whatever happened to that self-control?
...and, and, ...the respectable posture the British Shorthhair is supposed to keep?
"Such a tasty morsel! A shame to go to waste"
"You've got something to tell me, perhaps?"

Laser dance
The bright spot of the laser pointer is calling and Stepan will spring into action! And imagine that people consider British Shorthairs couch potatoes......or perhaps he's dancing to the tune of YMCA...

The joys of a simple twig
Our hunter is fully alert once more!
First preparing to strike...
...and then making sure the poor twig will not escape him (no matter how quickly I'll move it)
Of course, he does not run behind his toy all the time. He can just wait until a playful human will bring it close...

In the "wild"
Nature has invaded our home! A bit of spruce and he's in another world.
It's a new place to hide... And one to make cat photography (even) more tricky I would add...Sipping the sun and observing us (up to Dec. 25 it was chilly but sunny in this part of the planet)
"Ho Ho Ho! I'm gonna find out who's naughty or nice"

Carpet fever
It's a amazing how much a carpet can inspire a cat!
He becomes 100% alert and tries to catch whatever may be living inside the folds. Of course nothing is there but if there was, he would own it!
Is it the smells? The softness of the material? Perhaps the washing liquid we used? What can possibly bring a mature and usually placid cat to such cat-heaven?
Momentarily he gets into "trance", his body a loaded spring, his claws fully in "seize and keep it" mode! But there is nothing there... I tend to think that he gets excited by the feeling of the wool under his paws.
P.S. And yes, this is a baby on the edge of the picture, but that's another part of our common life and a story we'll tell another time. Just for those of you worried, I was there the whole time keeping an eye on both of them (baby and cat)!

"Think I only sleep?"
"...but when something is worth chasing..."
"...I can strike faster than your camera"
