My DH and I are here with our 4 cats. V..e..r..y quiet house! When the house creaks (as they tend to do) it scares the cats. LOL
My old Tortie cat and I are growing old together. She's just about at the end of her days. Sort of sad around here.
My daughter has lots of barn cats and tried to give me a black one, I told her I wanted a black one with stripes or spots and she said she had a great can of paint...not good enough. I saw a Savannah cat and they are beautiful but cost in the thousands to buy... too much money. :O( but they are not black.
She has a strain of 7 toed cats in the barn. There is a name for them but I cannot spell it...
