Hello!

My name is Diane and I have a 1 year old black cat, named Boo.


I found this site while surfing the net looking for a new vet (we just moved from N.Va to NC). I browsed through the boards and being impressed with what I saw, decided to register.

Boo is my baby and yes, I can be one of those super neurotic 1st time mommies!
So, please, bear with me if I drive you nuts with all my questions.


I am, also, interested in meeting other black cat enthusiasts! Especially if you know where I can find black cat products (such as novelties, gifts, cards, gift wrap, etc), I've found very few sites and most of them were overseas.


BTW, if you are in the N.Va area and need a recommendation for a vet, PM me...our former vet was the best! My Boo is not a people cat and she loved her vet.

Anyway, here's my baby:
"Whatchoo lookin' at?"

"Bow, lowly servant!"

"Kanga-boo!"

Hi Diane!
Welcome to TCS!


Boo is beautiful! I have always wanted a black cat and I had Boo picked out for a name.


You have found the right place! You'll find tons of great information here.

Welcome Boo-berry! You'r boo has beautiful eyes!

I love ALL cats but my Wickett does have a special place in my heart as do black cats in general. I guess I feel bad that some silly people think they are bad luck... my boy's been nothing but love and joy in my life!

Thanks, Jenny!


I actually came up with "Boo" because before I got her a bell collar, she would come streaking around a corner, giving me a heart attack!

twstychik,
You are so right, about the stigma with black cats!
Although, I have surely seen the 'evil' side of Boo!
She can bite, scratch, hiss with the best of them!

We (my co-worker had her when she was born) thought Boo was going to be a male, as she exhibited very 'Alpha' like traits and I wanted a male. But I would never trade her, now...pissy attitude and all!

Mcat,
I'm sorry to hear about Lady Claire, may she rest in peace. I can't imagine (now) my life without Boo.

On a bright note, you seem to have quite the family there!
I hope that, one day, I can add another one or two kittens to my house...that is if Boo will allow it!


I hope the vet info helps you out!

Diane & Boo

Welcome to TCS!
The first cat that I can clearly remember my family having, when I was a child, was a solid black male cat named Midnight, so I'm a fan of the black cats. Somehow we have all torties now (2 dilute torties w/white, 2 regular torties w/white, and 1 tortie-point siamese).

  • For all your compliments, to my Boo...lord knows her ego is big enough, already!
  • For all of your helpful information and kindly prods in the right direction.
  • For you general friendliness and vast varied knowledge in anything & everything to do with cats and then some!
  • And for the gifts I have received!
    Although, I feel really bad that I don't have enough points (yet) to return the favor! But I won't forget you, I promise!
I am sure you will be seeing a lot of Boo and I, now that we've found a new 'home'!

P.S. I, most likely, can not claim any artistic talent to Boo's pics...those are all my baby sister's work...just a side benefit of having bought her the camera for x-mas!
