Pèzenas Cats – Black and White cat sitting patiently outside a blue door waiting for his friend, a tortoiseshell cat, to come out to play.

Rachael had almost given up hope finding any cats to photograph in the popular tourist village of Pèzenas, in the South of France, when she saw a cat waiting patiently at a door with a mesh screen. At first, Rachael didn’t notice the second cat on the other side of the mesh. Cats, obviously, like their French owners, love to sit and gossip on the street. Rachael asked the woman inside if the cat was hers: “Non, il attend que je laisse sortir mon chat” (No, he’s waiting for me to let my cat out) she said, she explained that the cat arrived every morning to visit her cat when she let her cat out they spent the day together before her cat came home later in the day, she did not know where the cat came from. After Rachael had captured this image, she walked further down the road and looked back, sure enough, the two cats were happily hanging out together.

This image was published in Rachael’s book The French Cat

The ‘Pèzenas Cats’ was captured by Rachael using her H3 Hasselblad Digital Camera in Natural Light in the village of Pèzenas, in the Languedoc-Roussillon region of the South of France.

Rachael recommends this image to be framed using a Black, White, or Whitewashed Frame, with or without a white border.
