Two of my recent rescue/fosters (a pregnant mom and older kitten) have similar coloring to Basie! They are black, but they have like gray undertones, and the strangest thing... when you ruff their fur in one direction or another, it is white on the roots... it looks like it's their skin, but it's the hairs!!! I'll see if any of my pics show this!
...... well, you can't tell in my pictures so far ... but in this one of Emma (the preg mom) you can see by her face that she is black.. no gray ... no black! LOL!!!
When I saw her picture, I really thought of Basie too! How funny....maybe we have a whole new breed!
