Distance of roughly one meter An all black female sits atop a fluffy, circular bed on the same couch, her head resting on the edge, on the right of the image. Dated September 6th, 2025 at 1:32:39 PM An all black female cat lays atop the rectangular green bed. She is mostly front on, according the camera with a tired gaze. Her head rests against the bed.
