The feathering gave it more of a natural look, going from the lightened back to the darker.

Aren't you glad you asked? LOL

No, that's great!! I'm keen to try it myself using Gimp to see if I can do the same thing for future photos!

She doesn't care - we got her a nice new big bed that she loves! Lily would normally go to Stumpy and snuggle with her - Lily's the snuggle bug. There's certainly no jealousy between the 3 cats which is awesome. I have 3 girls, but there's no queen of the house, no alpha and no attitude whatsoever! They're all just buddies
