Hello to All.

Hi there! Thanks for the welcoming email, you know who you are!

I have been owned by cats since I was in college, way back in 1982. I have loved four cats in my home and one feral, outside my door and in the neighborhood.

My first kitty was a learning experience, for sure. His name was P Floyd. and I called him Floyd. He was with me for 12 years b4 his kidneys failed and he went to kitty heaven. His brother was 5 years younger and I named him Purr-C. He was a purr-d Purr-C. He passed in 1994 and was 17. I am now proudly owned by Otto and his brother Fred, they are not related but are both going on 14. Otto is my only long-haired kitty, the others were and Fred is smooth. All of my kitties are solid black.

I am an avid black cat collector and my home is full of black cat items and I have many, many black cat clothing items too. I wear a black panther stitched leather jacket in the winter. My recent ex, who is from Cuba, told his cousin that I was a "gato negro fanatica" and I fully understood that, even knowing only a bit of Spanish at that time!


Both of the kitties who own me now are always battling to be the first in my lap whenever I sit down. I play on my computer a lot when I am not working and they love to have my attention so interupt me quite a bit!

I work at a very large hospital and perform ultrasound tests, taking pictures of the insides of sick persons, four 12 hour shifts four days in a row and have three days off in a row. They sleep with me when I sleep, they eat twice a day and are not afraid to voice their opinions when I am tardy with the meals... heaven forbid if I have to run an errand on the way home! They both greet me at the door and sometimes cry when I have to leave them.

They are my babies, my life and my loves.

So, now you know a whole lot about me and I have read a lot about some of you. I think I am in fine company! GLAD to be here!

Thanks, Catwoman62

Welcome!

I am also owned by 2 black cats by the names of Muddy Waters and Koko Taylor. They were orphaned and had the blues........

Love the name P Floyd. I have a Pinky who we call Big Pinks, but never thought of naming one of mine after that band. I've had a Morrison, Hendrix, Janis and still have a Bob Marley.

Welcome to TCS, gato negro fanatica!

My RIP "Brownie" was un gato negro. When I went to the shelter after he died, I was determined to get another male black cat, but this little female tiger tabby had other ideas!

I love the name P Floyd. Pink Floyd is my favorite band ever so good job. It's nice to hear the fact that you like cats. I work at an animal shelter and they are always the last to get adopted. One week we had about 5 black kittens. They were so sweet! This one lady brought in her daughter to get a kitten for her birthday. The little girl fell in love with one of the little female kittens. She wanted her so bad. The mom asked me if we ever get in any siamese kittens. I told her every once in a while and she said that they would come back later. She didn't take the little black kitten that her daughter loved so much just because it wasn't unique like a siamese. I see the black dog and black cat phenomenom every day and it's sad. To make a long story short I'm glad to meet another black cat fan. My own Swannee is a black short hair.

Thanks for all the nice responses to my intro post.... you are all very nice and I loved to see the different kewl fotos of yer loved ones.... HOW DO I DO THAT? I cannot seem to find it anywhere... and it says way down below that I am not able to post attachments....when will I be "old" enuf to do that?

I want to show off my kittyboys too! They are special to me and I love to show others my baby fotos! =^..^= Hoping for hints..... hint, hint...

OH, and by the way, white cats are kewl too... if I did not have a passion for all black cats, I am sure solid white cats would be just as kewl to be owned by... no nemesis-ness.... : }

Hi
I just wanted to welcome you, and also get to talking to some people, because I am also new to the neighborhood. I am also an extreme kitty fan. I have 2 beautiful, and I mean BEAUTIFUL black, male brothers, 16 months old. One is Spookie, he is the bigger of the 2, and he is a vocal kitty. He definatly lets us know he's there. Oh, us and the birds outside.
The other one is Oreo, and he is just the definition of adorable. He comes when we call, and when we call, he talks back. They are the light of my life.

Sweetie Kitties
