Oh how I love this one. Precious and faved! Your kitty cat is beautiful. Perfect timing and this would make a very good pet contest entry. sandi♥

Well, it's clear to see that she still has more pieces than you, so we know the outcome! lol This is really cute. The angle is nice and the lighting just enough. I see Sandi is suggesting a pet contest. Maybe a contest for the funniest pet or animal might not be a bad idea. Here's a first great entry.

Very good view of a cute cat,good clarity as well,the photo is very lovely.

May be a Cheshire Cat you have there. LOL.
Fun Pic and Post.
Thanks for sharing.

I started laughing when I saw this. So funny. I used to play chess when I was a kid. I was so bad, I bet the cat could beat me. Great shot, Gabi.

Just great Gabi and cats are not my favorite but this is really good. I can see the hate mail now. Sorry. A pet contest would be great. If JimboB remembers how to play chess, I will enter him. Clarity is really good.

Since your King is off the board, I assume you've accepted your defeat.

Cats aren't widely known to be Chess experts, but yours could be the first.

Right?

I've always been rotten at chess, Gabrielle, as I think you need the cold calculating mind of a killer to win. And lovely as your cat and our cat Molly undoubtedly are, we all know that at heart they are miniature lions. So, no wonder you lost.

Cute!!

One can never win with such a great thinker! lol.
Precious capture Gabrielle. Saved & Faved of course!
Regards, Cornelius.

I love the sweet expression your beuatiful kitty has. I had this in voting and added it to my favorites. Wonderful capture.

wonderful expression and pose ... a wonderful capture:)

Oh Gabi you didn't loose another game did you
Not to worry I never enjoyed, or played chess much either, fancy a game of draughts instead ?

Such a pretty, & smart kitty. :o)

I thought he looked familiar. I believe I played him a few weeks ago and he beat me in just 17 moves.

Nice, cute post, he does seem to be quite intent.

Awwwwwww :-)So sweet!!Faved!!!!

The concentrated look in her eyes tells me she must be the master of the game :-). What a wonderful capture, and a beautiful cat she is!

Count me in! I'll have black: without my king, not even Anand can mate me, let alone your cute cat!! Great shot Gabi!

Hoi, Gabrielle !
Misschien is deze poes een reincarnatie van 'Max Euwe'
ooit de eerste nederlandse wereld kampioen schaken..... (lol!)
Hij/zij is echt serieus aan het nadenken over de volgende zet!
Geweldig leuke humorfoto !

Well, I'd be a good one to play chess with, since I've NEVER done it, so anyone could win, even a kitty kat!! This is a precious photo my friend!! Very sweet, very thought provoking.
A great idea too. Thank you ever so much. Verena

Knight to rook. Or is it queen to knave? She doesn't look like she'll ever make her mind up - I hope you had all day to play this game! Cute shot Gaby.

Smart cat eh, I have one that goes out hunting, and you may think thats normal for a cat, but this one takes his rifle.....lol.

Prachtige photo!!

This is how the cats are: but if I were a chess piece I'd be shivering right now - she could won the game with her paw and claws.

Pearl, Sorcha en Sven vinden deze schat toch wel heel lief hoor!
...en ik ook natuurlijk.

Superb picture. She is so cute. Looks like she thinking how she could beat her Master :D

hehehe :-) zo te zien heeft de kat gewonnen ! want je koning staat al niet meer op het bord hehehe

i love this! wonderful shot. (it helps too, that she looks like my kitty ;) )

I like this photograph, very cool.

Wow, I love this shot. Photo very well put together.
