Cats are amazing creatures and i love them! The phrase - every life should have had 9 cats - to me is literally... At least the ones I've had in the house. Have also helped many stray cats.... Can't understand then that people hate them!

I love them, too. I'm somewhat allergic to them and we travel too much, so we can't have any. But my stepdaughter and her husband have two (our grandcats) and my friend has the ginger ones in the picture above. Cats are great. Such interesting characters. I love dogs, too. I'm always amazed and sad to hear that people don't adopt the black ones out of shelters because they fear them!

Say no more about the insane fear for black cats...We've 2 right now, top center is Magica, a stray who came to live here 10 years ago, second row on the right also a stray, Humphrey who we would have loved to adopt but couldn't ground with Magica and got a new home and on the bottom far right is Onyx, a "leftover" kitten from a litter of 6, being the only black cat.
