HE'S SLEEPY SOMETIMES.

YOU DON'T HAVE A WHITE KITTY CAT WITH YELLOW EYES.

YOU DON'T HAVE A SOLID DOMINATE WHITE CAT. IF IT WAS PURE WHITE IT'D BE BECAUSE THE DOMINATE WHITE GENE SUPPRESSES ANY OTHER COLOR GENES. WITH DOMINATE WHITE KITTENS, THEY HAVE THEIR TRUE COLOR ON IT SOMEWHERE AS A SPOT, BUT AS THEY GROW THE TRUE COLOR GETS OVERTAKEN BY THE WHITE GENE. DUE TO BREEDING, WHITE CATS HAVE A DEGENERATIVE COCHLEA IN THEIR EARS WHICH MEANS WHITE CATS ARE COMMONLY DEAF.

HOWEVER.

YOU HAVE WHAT APPEARS TO BE A CREAM COLORED TABBY. RED COLORED CATS WITH THE DILUTION GENE (THE GENE THAT SOFTENS COLORS) COME IN CREAM, BEIGE, OR SAND. AND THEY HAVE LIGHT TABBY MARKINGS (STRIPES, SPOTS OR WHIRLS). IN ORDER TO BE A TRUE CREAM CAT, THEY MUST HAVE TABBY MARKINGS, AS YOURS DOES.

SO YOU HAVE A DILUTE RED TABBY OR CREAM TABBY WITH YELLOW EYES.


CAPSLOCKS.

WHAT ABOUT A PURE BLACK WITH YELLOW EYES AND A SOLID GREY LONGHAIR WITH GREENISH YELLOW EYES

IF IT'S A PURE BLACK CAT IS CALLED SOLID BLACK OR SELF BLACK. HOWEVER IF YOU NOTICE IT HAS TABBY MARKINGS (STRIPES, SPOTS NEAR THE STOMACH, WHIRLS, AND THESE MARKINGS WILL BE FAINT OR HARD TO SEE ON BLACK CATS) IT'S CALLED A BLACK TABBY.

YOUR GREY LONGHAIR IS MORE INTERESTING. GREY CATS ARE ACTUALLY CALLED BLUE CATS BY STANDARD TERMINOLOGY. THAT'S WHY RUSSIAN BLUES ARE CALLED BLUE EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE CLEARLY GREY OR STORMY COLORED.

SOLID 'GREY' CATS ARE ACTUALLY THE SAME AS SOLID BLACK ONES BUT WITH THE DILUTION GENE I MENTIONED EARLIER. IN OTHER WORDS IF YOUR 'GREY' CAT DIDN'T HAVE THE DILUTION GENE, IT WOULD BE BLACK. IT CAN BE CALLED SOLID BLUE, SELF BLUE, OR IF YOU WANT TO SOUND FANCIER, DILUTE BLACK SOLID.

I DON'T EVEN REALLY LIKE CATS

@RARE:THAT MAKES SENSE. THEY'RE FROM THE SAME LITTER AND NEITHER IS A TABBY, THOUGH I DO HAVE A GREY/BLACK TABBY. WE CALL HER THE DOWAGER COUNTESS BECAUSE SHE ACTS LIKE THE DOWNTON ABBEY CHARACTER, ALL HIGH AND PRISSY.

@ZIGGY: LEAVE

That's not true, I like MY cats. Or cat. She had several kittens which I am now in possession of. They're nice too, but they're no Ms. Valerie Plame.

I mostly have pictures from when they were but kittens. These are from, like, eighth grade.


The upper is Ms. Valerie, who is a very small entirely black kitteh. The younger was Rosemary, who was a very pretty long-haired tabby. I had to find her a home because she required more attention than I could provide.
Val had a litter of kittens of which 3 survived, two ladies(Irene and Audrey) and Tom. Irene and Audrey looked almost exactly alike, with black stripey legs, long grey and white hair, and fluffy tails. Tom is a big fluffy black creature with white on his chest.

ZIGGY

THANKS FOR TELLING US ABOUT YOUR CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATS

Your caaaaaAAAAAAAts Ziggy! You heard our plea and obliged! THERE WAS NO IGNORING US.

Ms. Valerie is Solid Black or Self Black Shorthair, and Irene, Tom and Audrey are most likely Domestic Longhairs, which are long-haired cats with mixed traits due to a very mixed family tree. Exciting!

POST PUPPIES NOW





How'd that last one get in there
GOD DAMNIT TEXAS

I HAVE TWO BIRDS! ONE IS GREEN AND THE OTHER ONE IS WHITE!

CAT DESCRIPTION DAY, YES!

THIS IS ONE OF MY CATS WHO DIED A FEW YEARS AGO. SHE WAS ABOUT 22 YEARS OLD AND LIKED SLEEPING IN MY MOTHER'S BOX OF WOOL

Spoiler:

CURRENTLY I HAVE AN ALMOST FULLY BLACK CAT WITH A SMALL SPOT OF WHITE ON HIS MIGHTY CAT CHEST

Spoiler:

I ALSO HAVE A PEDIGREE CHARTREUX CAT. SHE LIKES TO SLEEP ON ME IF I'M LYING ON THE COUCH.

Spoiler:

THIS IS THEM BOTH TOGETHER

Spoiler:

I was pretty intimidated by your cats, Gorgro. My cannons retreated back into my shell as a result.

Also, I shrunk a lot.

I don't have any cats in my house

At least

None that I know of

We're very inventive when it comes to cat names round these parts.
We had a greyish tabby cat. We called her Tabby.
We now have a ginger cat. We called him Ginger.
Also, most of our cats are adopted from the wild. 3 of the 4 cats we've owned were wild. Then we tamed them with the power of free food.

I still have my moo cat...[]

You mean a cow?
