Orange females will always hold a special place in my heart. I don't know why I bother but I was looking at Petfinder.com and saw so many homeless orange females in NC. :( I would love to get a fourth kitty but with Shadow's pee pee issues and my apartment only allowing "2 cats" I am kind of out of luck. Why do I torture myself?
How could this face not get you every time?

Callie is my soul mate. I love her to no end.
I don't know if I'm drawn to a certain breed or color (although gray or gray/white kitties really do get me) but Richard says that I'm drawn to "needy" cats. You know the kind that have issues and really need a person. It was that way with both Jazz and especially poor Scout who had been abused. Richard couldn't figure out why I fell so in love with her. I just knew she needed me and I needed her.
Of course Richard says when animals look at me they just see a big sucker in a catnip or dogbone wrapper. :rolleyes:
I just love them all and would love to have one of every color, male and female! :)
I agree Lorraine. All of my kitties have been "needy" in one way or another. Callie was definetely lucky Jason, my hubby, found her when he did but we took W and S when their original owners could no longer care for them. If we had not taken them, I'm not sure what would have happened-probably Humane Society as the owners could keep the dog, but not the cats. :mad:
(worked out for me though so I guess I shouldn't complain) ;)
Callie, you are such a pretty girl. If you looked at me like that, I would give you anything your little heart desired.
In regards to a breed, I would have to say the tabby cat. I have always had a soft spot for tabbies. Maybe it's my love for tigers that makes me drawn to them.
As for a certain cat, that would have to be my special boy Chipper.
He just has to look at me with those eyes of his and my heart just melts.:)

When I go to cat shows I'm drawn to the Aby's, Maine Coons, Ragdolls, Birmans and many more. I just love cats.:) The colors that attract me the most are the red, rudy, or orange. I believe in rescuing cats from shelters or rescue groups. I'd have a cat in every color if I could afford it and had the space for them.;)
Long haired cats do it for me everytime, remind me of Sheba, my cat of 14 years (I had to put her down when I was 18). I love my boys though, and they're both short hairs!:)
I love them all but Abys are special:)
Cats with the perfect white blaze on the face get me every time!
(Just check out Rutherford, Willow, Ashley, Calvin....well you get the idea)
I have a large variety pack here and I love each and every color. But, if there were no homeless or needy kitties and I could have my choice I would have a house full of orange and white kitties! I find myself drawn to them everytime I see one. :D
What get's mamma is brown tabby Norwegain Forrest cats... due to her beloved Vinnie that was one. Hmmm... maybe she'll start appreciating wonderful silver tabby mixed Maine Coon/? kitties too soon!!! aaaargh!
ANY cat gets to me everytime!!! I have a shirt with a "Maxine" type woman on it and cats everywhere! It says, "After all these years, I finally have one in every color!"
I'm partial to the all-black cats. Probably because my first ever cat was Black Jack. He was a neighborhood stray that actually adopted me. He chose to come inside, wasn't afraid of the dogs and slept next to me and while Samson slept on the other side of me. He was with me exactly one year, to the day before he left, just as quickly as he came.
But I really love them all. And I seem to be collecting one of every color!

Himalayans & Bengals go straight to my heart. Aside from being beautiful cats, they were always very precious to my heart.
I had 2 (non-purebred) himalayans with siamese markings when I was around 13 years old, and 1 all black himalayan cat. They were all siblings (one from a different litter, who was stolen), and I got the black & 1 siamese kittens after the first one was stolen. They were such loving cats, and they will always hold a special place in my heart. The one that was stolen even came back home about a year after he had been stolen - shortly after the black one had died. He was all grown up, sick, but definitely the same cat with the same fear of my shower stall :) They're very endearing, lazy, loveable, not very bright, but poseable "limp washcloth" cats. I really miss those guys, and I still have framed pictures of those babies up in my apartment - and I don't have very many pictures up.
Bengals - I currently have a 2 year old male bengal. He's a hoot. He's so smart, so friendly, extra sweet, and such an entertainment thrill. His fur is so soft, and his tummy is so fat! He's irresistable!
Me? A certain breed/type? Nooooo... certanly not tabbies... and most definately not ones of the brown persuation! :p
Oh yea....orangies always get me.
At the cat shows, its the Abys...ANY Meezer-type variety, Havana Browns are stunning....
Bobtail and Manx - they really get to me.... Both mine are short stubby tails - one is curled and I think they are sooo cute!!! Of course both I got from Animal Control kIll shelters and that part means a lot too as I can think that I saved them. :) Debbie
Long hair tuxedo kitties, I love them.
My husband is a sucker for a solid black cat.
Long-haired orangies (male or female); orange Maine Coons make we weak in the knees they are SO my favorite!
After seeing them at cat shows I've also fallen for Somalis, Abys, Bengals, Birman and Ragdolls.
I'm drawn to the homeless ones that need love the most . . . many have sought me out and I have helped in whatever way I could.
As far as breed/physical appearance, I favor the Ragdoll, Snowshoe and Bengal. But ALL cats are beautiful to me!
Jen mentioned cats with a perfect blaze, and do I have one for you . . . he is our newest addition and not quite a year old. Chaz(-manian Devil) is tabby and has a beautiful white inverted V marking down front of his face extending to chest and on all four paws. He is a pistol, and I CONstantly tell him it is a good thing he is so darn handsome, or else . . . he knows how to get on your last nerve, that is for sure. He has the Aby type build . . . a long, lean playing machine . . . such a spitfire, terrorizing all my other kitties. I must say he is quieting down some as he matures . . . it can't be soon enough! UGH :rolleyes: http://home.earthlink.net/~jemdoll/chazman1.JPG
Calicos and torties.. but especially torties! :D
I love my Nutmeg's colours.
Although I'm partial to black and whites like Groucho, it really doesn't matter. If it's a cat, I'm in love!!!!!
Nope. I like greys one day then orangies then blackies then torties. I seem to get hooked for a little while then move on to a new lovely colour. I love em all. Of course we should all know by now that I love the older critters best. Who can resist a wise old tom cat with battle scars and a purr like a lawnmower.
No breed for me, only rescues, shelter kitties or strays and any color will do. I love them all, they are all beautiful! :D Shhh..........don't tell Sash!
