Black cats are really gorgeous, and all are unique  :Luv:  The first two are my bridge babies:

Monty



and Sooty...



In our current furry gang we still have Sooty's brother Sweep



and here is our Suki

So much for people thinking that black cats are all alike - if we had a line up we would all be able to pick out our individual cats.  :hug:

 :Luv: Awwwww that is so cute!

Cheese gets under the throws on the sofa sometimes but that is to ambush people/cats unawares from under there rather than sleep. She likes getting under the duvet at night with us though which is so cute - she woke me up this morning rubbing her nose on my face  :evillaugh:

Her new obsession is her fluffy radiator bed, I will have to take a pic of her in there as she looks adorable - she always does that thing to look cute when she is getting attention where she sort of turns her head upside down and peeps at me through her paws  :Luv2: :Luv2:

Does she also like being completely covered up like Willow?  :evillaugh:

She scatches the sofa which is my cue to cover her up with an airline blanket - she is right next to me now  :Luv2:

So I wasn't too far off the mark with Cheese then - she clearly has some issues with the colour of her coat...  :rofl:

Maybe she wants to be Cheesy-yellow  :evillaugh:

I love it when Cats do that Mark - she sort of holds her back legs/tail as if shes holding herself in a circle  :evillaugh: I think Cheese is probably as feisty as Willow seems from some of your posts!

Cheese is gorgeous Dawn and reminds me so much of Willow - she curls up in a complete circle like that as she is so petite  :evillaugh:

PS - glad you changed your name back to something we recognise - I had to PM Ruth yesterday to ask who you were  :evillaugh:

Alex - Cheese has managed to bleach her tail before  :tired: I was dying my hair blonde and I locked myself in the bathroom (as she has a terrible habit of always wanting to be in there!) because I didn't want her to get any dye on her. Somehow, even though I thought I had cleaned everything off when I had finished, before  I let her back in - she managed to get some on her tail and side and she had some lovely attractive red splodges  :rofl:

Haha Mark - ANY excuse to show off my gorgeous boy!

I got quite cross the other day when we had a visitor - Monkey came into the room first and said hello and the lady was making appropriate noises and stroking him, but then Poppy came into the room (and YES, she is very striking-looking and she does know how to make an entrance), and the lady completely forgot about Monkey and just started fussing over Poppy and saying how stunning she was and so on.  >:(

Kylie's eyes do look amazing - you can see them slightly even though she's trying to keep her eyes shut. More pics please!  ;D

And Cheesecat - love the pic of Cheese in the washing machine! Like she's been on the receiving end of some racist bullying, and now wants to try to bleach herself a different colour...  :rofl:

Black cats rock!  :Luv:

Here's my boyfriend (yes, OH knows... he's resigned himself to the fact that Monkey is my real OH), the incredibly beautiful, ridiculously vain & infuriatingly demanding Monkey Boy! Life would certainly be easier without him... but very empty.

She had claimed the big bedroom but since Willow started sleeping with us, Kylie graciously picked another one  :evillaugh:

I want to get a better one of her eyes - they really are the brightest green  :Luv2: but she nearly always blinks. I guess I will have to wait for a bright day.

PS - the house is a lot calmer cat-wise now they have a lot more space  ;D we have wedged all the door open so they are in heaven  :Luv2:

Mark, Kylie's gorgeous, those eyes are fab.  I know lots of my mates who have had their spare bedroom taken over by the cats, including my own when not in the mood for sleeping with me!  :rofl:

Here's the love of my life, Kylie - I will try to get some of Willow later if she will stay still long enough!

Kylie has claimed a spare room as her own now  :Luv2:

Sorry pics aren't great but I took them late last night.

Good for you Jackspratt. ....it was hard work making a fuss of them all when I went to visit her.  :)

It's getting harder work now they're older! I was not required so much when they were out and about more, but with them not being as young as they were they're much more "home orientated" these days! Not that any of them have ever said no to a fuss, it's just more likely I'll be stuck to the sofa for a few hours because I feel mean making the two cats sat on my knee move!

I have four, Mary. :) I do tend to crosspost about cats needing homes and the like, though!

We did have five until February last year, when we lost Parsley.  :(

My 13yrs old Smudge is all black and missing since September - someone told me all black cats look alike and I politely told them they were wrong.  I've had so many phone calls to go see a black cat that the person thinks is Smudge and it isn't.

You wouldn't think an all black cat could be so adorable but they are.  See attached for the proof.

 :Luv: :Luv: awwwww I love black cats - we used to have one who came to visit us when I was about 14, and he was gorgeous. We just referred to him (creatively) as "Black-cat", but he was a huge bruiser, and as soft and soppy as anything! He used to sunbathe in our garden, come for a bit of a fuss, and then head off to wherever he called home. :Luv:
