Introducing Sydney

I just adopted Sydney from a local shelter. She's a little over a year old. The cruel scum that owned her when she was a kitten just threw her out of the house and moved away. Kind neighbors realized what had happened and took her to the shelter so she wouldn't have to fend for herself and possible be eaten by coyotes.

Still a little jittery at times, but within several hours of her arrival, she has settled right in. I expected her to be more shy and reserved at first, but she is already relaxed, made herself at home and has become quite affectionate. I don't have many images of her yet, so I picked this comical one to start with.Canon 20D - 1/100th, 149mm @ f/4.5, ISO 1600, on camera flash -2 stops.
