Oh, right.
Are your models produced by yourself?

The tip of that tail is telling me something. :-)

A nice study.

One of the best cat I've ever seen rendered in POV-Ray.

Yes. IIRC this scene, featuring Vermeer atelier, started more than 10 
years ago. If you search the newsgroup for Vermeer you should find some 
images. I've even reconstructed the virginals as seen in "The Music 
Lesson" but choose to not use it together with the cat.
The cat is based on the old DAZ-Millenium-Cat but I did completely 
overhaul the original model and reworked the rigging to be anatomical 
more correct.

Well, I should not do so much modeling works like yours.


In fact, the cat is somewhat strange because of its cross-eyes. Or its two eyes
are too close.

I think they're all great -- but I guess I personally favour part 4.

Very good job :)
That's probably the BEST cat renders I've ever seen, anywhere.
