Ash and everybody, I was just kidding when I thought this should be a breed, but as a coloring it is so odd that all of a sudden (doesn't it always seem like that?) there's little black cap juno's all over the place. In Girlfriend and "ugly daddy cat" (he really is ugly) it's so interesting to see how genetically dominant his coloring has been. When I said Girlfriend had a least 8 black caps, I remembered one litter (I know, I know...it's so tragic and it WILL stop with this litter) that she had a hard time with and two black caps got taken to a no kill shelter very very young - a couple of weeks old. One didn't make it and I'm not sure what happened to the other, so that makes 10. And she had 4 out of 6 in this last litter. One of the tiny ones' cap is actually not black, but looks just like mom's brown tabby color! Anyway, I think we have 4 spoken for (if the tabby is female she has a home) which will leave 2 black caps up for adoption. Fingers crossed!
