I'm not a lover of cat photos, perhaps because they're so numerous.  
But this one is very good. A nice shot — cat or not!

Thanks, Dave - she is a beauty, isnt she?
It is an adaptor ring --  Cotty clued me to it -- forgot what it is  
called... not too expensive ... easy to
swithc around from one k mount lens to another... you lose the  
recording of the f stop in the exif data,
You have to set the focus and aperture manually (like we all used to  
do all the time:-) )

If you have one of the 1.6x crop Canons you can use Pentax lenses with an 
adapter, and you don't even have to emasculate the Pentax lens...
