It's been snowing a little in Cardiff, and though not like in the US, Xavi couldn't wait to get outside to check out what all this white stuff was. Here are some pictures Kevin took of him in the back garden this morning. His beautiful black coat looks lovely against the white background. He's a gorgeous boy I think you'll agree. Coming up to 18 months now.

Xavier certainly looks intrigued by all that white stuff on the frozen ground and that snow certainly sets off his coat well!!!

Tubster Panther cautions his Fellow Black Cat that snow is great as a novelty,but it wears out its welcome very quickly!!!!

OOh Xavi, weren't your toes COLD?!

Kate he looks fabulous! What is that water section in your garden, do you have a pond or a creek? I think it is the 4th photo.

The pic just above that, his profile close up is gorgeous! Well done, Kevin!

Oh, he is just GORGEOUS, and with that white background setting him off so beautifully...

But after the last picture I could just hear him saying: "Hey, Meowmie, very interesting, but can I go back inside now?"

The contrast of a black cat against the white snow is just breathtaking. He looks so much like my stray, LBK, that I'm feeding and sheltering but I think LBK is probably younger. Your Xavier is just stunning! My blackie Boo used to love to hear his paws hit the frozen snow before he became an indoor cat. We're lucky to have such charmers, aren't we? :love:

Xavier really seems to enjoy the snow- and I am sure his nice black coat is warm enough.
Tigris went in the snow sometimes but Filou wouldn't set his dainty little paws in it.

I'm surprised he's lying in the snow, and not walking with that paw shake *ew, ew* that cats do when they don't like the surface they're walking on! Handsome kitty.

What a stunning boy! I'm with GILL...have never seen a kitty LIE DOWN on the snow. :)

He sure enjoyed his outing - curious about every little thing, and I love where he is batting at some leaves sticking out of the grass!

Give him hugs and warming belly rubs for me!

Oh how cute! :love: Xavi certainly looks interested in that odd white stuff. He doesn't give the impression that he finds it at all cold to lie in. :D

Xavier says 'Hey man, I'm going to be young forevvver! I aint' never getting old!'
I say 'He'll learn!'

Sandra, that is our small garden pond with our goldfish in it. He likes to look at them, but has never caught a fish. I think he just likes to act tough, I could If I wanted to sort of thing!


Wow! He's such a handsome boy.:) I love all of these pictures. Thanks so much for sharing them with us.:)

So how are he and Sunny getting along these days?

Sunny gets on very well with Xavi actually. I think she's just taken him on board because he's another male and after living with Jack all her life she doesn't seem to mind. She'll play fight with him, though sometimes he gets a bit over zealous and she'll give him a hiss and a left hook! But he soon learns. He really worships her though, and tends to copy things she does which is very sweet!
