Some of my favourite shots and moments in nature from 2025.

Wishing you health and happiness for 2026 💚

How is it possible that this little kitten-face is turning FIFTEEN this year?! 😻
Keep your cats indoors, take them for regular vet checks, make sure they receive lots of love, attention and playtime to avoid boredom, and leave them be when they want their own space 💯
