Reason: Its clear, crisp, encyclopedic; although I wonder if people will vote oppose because of the distraction in the bottom left

Oppose: subject cut-off. cannot use the picture to describe Cat. --Kalyan 09:39, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Not the usual Fir standard. It looks snapshotish with the dark corner and the two red lines. Plus the cat is cut and I don't really like the composition. --Dschwen 10:05, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - per Dschwen (who might have also meant to oppose?). --TotoBaggins 15:49, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Sometimes I just don't want to slap the nominator with a big fat oppose, but rather just give a detailed opinion. It's a psychological thing ;-) --Dschwen 16:35, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Not bad, but we can certainly do better for this subject - after all, it's not a particularly hard subject to photograph. Basically, agree with Dschwen. (NOTE: Added the sig in a second edit - I forgot) Zakolantern 17:02, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I herebey endorse Fir taking another picture of his cat, with better composition than this one, and giving the bug thing a rest. Chick Bowen 01:59, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I'm not going to say this is a great photo because it's not. But can't do a reshoot because I don't have a cat (I took this one as I walked down the street) and tell you the truth I don't see why I should give the "bug thing" a rest. Thanks anyway, --Fir0002 04:02, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I do hope it's clear that I was joking about that. I have a phobia, but I was not making a comment about the photographs, which are obviously excellent. Chick Bowen 04:08, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I second that endorsement, and oppose this one, with that corner all messed, and the cut of cat. Maddie was here 02:26, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I second Chick Bowen's endorsement, especially about the bugs, and oppose. --Iriseyes 05:47, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose--Mad Max 08:20, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment At least it's by far better than our previous Cat FP that was kept two years ago in a FPR vote. Circeus 21:46, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, Poor composition. --snowolfD4 ^{( talk / @ )} 00:31, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
