What a brilliant idea! That's a great story. Dear little black cats - their only "flaw" is that they're so hard to photograph well! I've known many sweet, wonderful black cats. I actually think they're particularly beautiful. Especially when they even have black whiskers; for some reason I think that's very pretty.

They say that if you find a shed black cat whisker, you should pick it up and keep it, and take it with you when you don't want to be noticed. I used to have one, and I'd carry it with me when I was sick and feeling grungely and depleted and didn't want to deal with anybody. I wish I knew where I put it.
