Support I think this cat photo is great. I actually thought the cat is shouting, but it is just yawning instead. When the cat's eyes close, it show another eyes! -- ★ Poké⁹⁵ 02:00, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support I uploaded this for the smile/laugh factor, and because I have a bit of an obsession with yawning cats. I've switched to a simple description. He's a short-haired tabby of some kind from Frisco, but I haven't gotten out the breed book on this one. With a yawn like that, I wasn't about to be picky about the breed...

Support I`m a diehard cat fan. How I love these pets! Right now my cat is sleeping on my lap and purring. Enjoy this snap-shot. --Johann Jaritz (talk) 06:06, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support This is a really great shot of a yawning cat. Ellin Beltz (talk) 07:14, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Sorry, nothing exceptional for a FP, in my opinion.--Jebulon (talk) 10:35, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support --Medium⁶₉ ^{You wanted talk to me?} 12:06, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support. -- Geagea (talk) 12:24, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose the moment is fine, but on the other hand: Where is the focus really? Somewhere at the forehead? Sorry, as Jebulon, it is not an FP for me.--Hubertl 17:25, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose Nice and memeable, but not sharp enough (although the fangs certainly are! ). Daniel Case (talk) 22:26, 30 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose as per Daniel and others. Yann (talk) 05:59, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose If there's anything the internet has enough of it's probably cat photos. This one certainly captures a nice moment but it doesn't really stand out from the masses and the general sharpness is below usual FP level. --El Grafo (talk) 09:55, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I agree about the sharpness; unfortunately the original photog included a lot of dark extra space in the room in the original for some unknown reason, so I had to crop out half the image. As for the rest, I'd say dick picks, porn, and selfies are what we've got too much of on the internet (and Commons), and this is one of the better yawning cat picks we've got; I don't upload average yawning cats.

Neutral I really like the emotion, but the image itself is somewhat too soft. Kruusamägi (talk) 09:57, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Great expression, unfortunately not ideal quality. — Julian H.^✈ 14:56, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Poor lighting. Firebrace (talk) 01:51, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
