    I totally adore black cats!!! I don't know why they are overlooked. Nearest to a sleek home panther you can get!

    Ditto, always been my favourite cat colour.
    Not too sure how I ended up owning a Birman, mind you.

    Mine is such a scardy! She's beutiful, but very timid. Mummy loves her cuddles with Gracie, although poor Gracie has no voice most of the time (voice box issue, none threatening - checked out with vets) she has started making her own little noise to shout to me (her big bro has his own call too, no I'm not fully mad) big up for black cats!

  • We're getting our beuatiful black cat tomorrow morning, very excited! We're calling her Ruby, she's 6 months and an RSPCA cat. Been out today to buy her lots of toys and goodies.

    Two of my furbabies are completely black and they are fab. I have to remember to switch on the light before I enter any room though because they are partial to sprawling out on the floor.

    My son found one in his underwear drawer today, I think he thought I'd been buying him extra warm pants for winter :D
