Black and White Cats

[tuxluvr]

taken today - I caught her in one of those "bored cat"moments (aka, I'm trying to nap, so put that cameral away!)

Thank you for coming to this thread and showing us how much Ritzy looks like Pepurr. I love the belly up poses, my cat does that too at night after the kids are in bed and she can really relax. I hope to get some photos of my cat here soon, the digital camera is new so I need my husband to help me get them from the camera to the computer(he is the resident computer expert here)

Ok, lets see if this will work, I hope it will show a picture of Sam. I did get the small head shot of her to work, hope this does too.

Yep, it worked:-) She is so cute!

Gosh, these tuxy's are soooooooo cute!

I love all the pictures...especially Ritzy's "bored" and "coy" shots. I am also partial to the tummy shots...Peppur is so cute!

We just got a black kitten...he has a few white hairs on him too! Here's his picture:

[The Cat Factory]

He looks just like my Vader did when he was a baby. A few stray white hairs here and there.

Your new kitten is so cute! And he looks like he is barely a handful! Now I feel the need to hold some cute little kittens so I guess I will be visiting the local Humane Society to play with some. But I can't bring one home with me, we tried that once and Sam said no way!

Hi Vermontcat and Welcome to Pet Talk! Your Sam is so adorable!! I'm a mommy of a black and white cat named Scooter and a pure white cat named Marius. They're such a handful, but I love them!!
Here's a picture of Scooter, our "bug-eyed" boy! LOL

[wolflady]

...and here's a picture of my Marius!!

[Vermontcat]

Wow! My cat Sam can do that same impersonation of a bowling pin too! It's nice to see another halfandhalf black/white cat with markings similar to mine. Marius sounds cute too, any photo of him?

I did get to visit the Humane Society a little while ago and found a 6 week old tux kitty Sierra to play with. So I got the kitten thing out of my system for now, and no I didn't bring her home.

[Vermontcat]

Oops I guess I spoke too soon, now I see the picture of Marius, he's very handsome too. My cat used to have a shoe fetish when she was a kitten and could fit in one of my husbands shoes! Thank you for sharing the photos Wolflady!

LOL LOL I'm glad I'm not the only one! LOL LOL How cute!! Fitting inside the shoe! I sure hope you landed some photos of that! LOL
This is such a funny trait about Marius. His fascination for shoes and feet have actually increased over the years. He just LOVES feet. Shower feet especially. It's kinda annoying, because he'll be rolling and rubbin on fresh shower feet, and all his fur sticks because they're wet. Ick!
If anyone comes for a visit, he'll be rubbing and rolling on their shoes and feet. It's even better if the shoes are removed from the feet! All the better for him to stick his nose in and rub on! LOL LOL It is quite amusing!

I did come across one kitten photo of her sitting on top of one of my husbands sneakers with her head stuck inside. She was only a couple of months old then and my husband does wear size 13! Sorry I can't post it, don't have the scanner hooked up right now. She does still enjoy rubbing on all the shoes in the house and loves dirty laundry especially my husbands jeans and flannel shirts.

Karen, I love that picture of Scooter!! My best friend has a tuxy named Rupert (I got to name him! ) and he has that look on his face a lot! It's so cute, you just want to go over and hug them!!

Vermontcat,

Thanks!! Basil is such a sweet cat! I went home at lunch today to let him out to play. He found our catnip mat by the sliding glass door and to my surpise was flopped over rubbing his whole body on it!! I didn't think cats that young were effected by catnip. Here's a picture of him next to the mat:

Sam is a pretty cat! Love those front left leg markings! We had an indoor/outdoor tomcat some years back (learned my lesson, he was hit on the road - Ritzy is strictly indoors). However, before his untimely demise and before we had a chance to get him neutered(his name was Mr Tubbs), he was, umm, let's say "prolific". We now have a lot of white/black black/white marked kitties in the neighborhood, many of which seem to love to congregate in our back yard next to the mini barn.

I grew up on a farm and always thought cats with markings like this looked like black and white cow markings. My favorite pet term is "moo cow kitty".

Black and white cats have such an interesting look - the stark color differences, the assorted mix of black and pink paw pads...Sam has a neat "sooty" nose.

Karen, I never tire of the "bowling pin Scooter"...those eyes! Ritz gets that look often, and is also sporting the "bowling pin look" these days...see pic attached...posing in her favorite spot by the window in my home office
