Actually his name is Harry, after Harry Potter. I gave him the Rap name "Little Hissa (think hisser)" because when I met my girlfriend he had moved many times and was a stressed out kitty. Until he settled down for the last time in his life he hissed at me a lot. He still has his moments but more or less he is a mellow low key feline. I had dogs most of my life and when we first moved in I got down on the living room floor thinking I would play with him. LOL! I forgot cats are not dogs, in more ways than the obvious. :) He gave me a look as to "What the heck are you doing?!" After a few well placed scratches over the last couple years I realised what my boundaries were with him and cats in general. :) There were a couple people here that wanted to see a photo of him so this is the main reason I thought I would share this one, which was taken at "Best Friends Kennel" at Disney world.

His name could also be a play on "Harry & Tonto", although, in that case, Harry was Art Carney, the human, and Tonto looked just like your Harry... except he didn't look like he wanted your jugular. Your Harry, alex, still looks like he's asking you "What the heck are you doing?" His brows are down a little and his pupils are pretty wide, and as anyone who has spent time around cats, the wider the pupil, the more your life expectancy is in question. I'm not a cat guy (preferring Border Collies) but this is one fine feline portrait. I think I'll keep this one.

Amusing story, Alex. It proves again that dogs need a boss and cats a house.
A beautiful 'portrait' however. Its pose and its expectantly eyes has stolen my heart.
Lovely and good shot of this cute and (adorable, ☺ ?) friend, my friend!

He is a handsome guy without doubt. Any cat would have been a bit abnormal with so much changes in its life. Good one Alex!

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
