RULES?! You have rules for cats in your house?!He is a little mischievous! He love to play with my toes at night and jumps on the table when we eat . Only had him for a month so he is still learning the rules.
1) socialized to a certain degree, tamed to be like any other house cat I think not, I want a cat that will respond to me in a positive fashion, that I can hug and get purrs in return, not just something that tolerates my presence, eats the food, shelter and care I provide and otherwise hides under the bed or wherever and will hiss and scratch anyone who comes near it, that cat is better off and probably mentally healthier although not as long-lived if it stays outside
Thanks! yes - those ghost eyes sure do ruin a pic!
He turned his head just as I was taking the pic - good thing, too 'cause I wouldn't have been able to post KiKi with ghost eyes!!
Welcome to the TCS segelkatt! Have you posted in the forum to introduce new members?
Well, segelkatt, you've made quite a statement here by saying that an adult feral can never be tamed.
I've gotta tell you - with patience there can be progress towards taming/socializing.
I'm experiencing that with the feral-born that I care for.
Bringing them inside to live with you, and a with a great deal of patience, it can be done. It is a lot of work, and not for the 'faint of heart".
They may not be as social as hand raising a 6-week old kitten, or even a 3-month old kitten, but most will eventually come around.
I think what you are doing for the feral-born around you is wonderful and a great work of compassion.
Ooops, I think this thread is about or for Black Cats Only. , so back to the topic, sorry.
Sounds like you are counting the days! What a handsome boy he is. I LOVE that middle picture. Looks like he absolutely adores you. How old is he?
Ahhh I miss him! I get to see him in three weeks!
Thanks ^_^ I'd tell him you said he was handsome but his ego is big enough He's seriously the most confident, relaxed cat I've ever met. We got him and his brother together because we wanted two cats, and the shelter said they had to go together because Max was "shy" - ha! He just delegates everything to his brother. Billy hides when there's guests or fireworks and the like, Max thinks they're all in celebration of his wonderfulness.

l'm sorry for your loss of Teddy
He is absolutely gorgeous! He's definitely welcome on this thread. Too bad you don't show his white undercoat. His golden eyes are to die for. I adopted a black smoke a long time ago and didn't know what that was called, I just loved the way the white would show wherever the fur parted. he went to the rainbow bridge a long time ago, he suffered from feline AIDS at a time when nobody knew how to treat it, it was just fatal and they did not have a test then either, otherwise I don't think the shelter would have let him go. He was a big teddy bear so I named him Teddy.
LOL. That is the definition of cattitude in a nutshell

Awwww!! Nothing like a big dose of cuteness to go with my morning coffee.
Panthera's eyes are considered "seafoam' which they say is rather rare . They are too pale to be aqua and tend more towards the green. Sometimes when the light is just right they are yellow, but then again I have seen them when they were almost sky blue, just paler.
those are not "orange eyes", they are golden
He has such beautiful eyes! Never in my life have i seen such orange eyes!
They're called copper, but in some light they look bright, bright orange, and in other light they have a yellowish look. They are his best feature

What a lovely picture. Snuggly cushion bed, and wot, no Whisky?!All of your black cats are gorgeous. Blighty is a black and white baby.
