Cakes the Magnificent

Babe leans into the pet on a sultry afternoon yesterday.

We never knew anyone who loved to pet as much as Baby Cakes. Slow to rise, his purr is deep, dark and delicious, a rumble in your ear once he gets going. The Great Satan to small birds and mammals, Cakes The Magnificent to his peers as First Among Equals, to us he is just the sweetest boy ever was, a booful, fluffy pussycat (forget about those scars on our arm, souvenirs of the time we got caught in the crossfur between him and Lucie on her homeland turf Down East -- scroll down to comments for reference).

I love this picture! I love the ones when they look like they're grinning.

He looks like he's enjoying his cuddle immensely.
