I love black cats, just the contrast of their bright yellow eyes with the dark, shiny fur makes them the best. Plus every cat I've been around that was pure black was like Jekyll/Hyde with their personality - one minute, they're drooly snugglemonsters that want pets, the next minute they're feisty and attacking your hands/feet or anything else that shows even the slightest movement.

The old "George would be better off with a buddy if/when we're both gone, so he's not lonely" would probably work.

Blinks posted:Apologies in advance but I'm having a pretty good time at the minute and I want to gush about how much of a good boy Arthur has been. My fiancée went into labour at 1:30 on Sunday afternoon. The contractions got steadily worse and even though he is such a scaredy cat, Arthur lay by her on the bed and refused to move. For a cat that runs and hides under the dining table at the first sign of a loud noise, this is really impressive but he didn't shift once, just lay by her side. He was super brave putting up with my fiancée's cries. Regarding this, I've heard from different sources that cats can usually detect changes in body temperature (usually happens when someone is sick or in some kind of distress) and will tend to be around more. I wouldn't doubt that they might be able to sense hormonal changes too, but not sure. I've had cats a couple times in my life (as a kid before allergies, and been around them through friends) and they definitely sense when something's up. An old friend of mine had a grumpy furball tabby cat that absolutely didn't want to be around people and would get hissy and bitey, probably because she had a couple young kids that didn't really treat the cat right. Second day I visited her place with a few other friends, grump cat waltzed over to the sofa where I was sitting, sat on the arm, and rubbed her head on my arm for pets. I gave her a few gentle scritches and rubs and she still kinda had that grumpy growl, but never hissed or swatted or tried to bite at all (it was like her growl and purr functions were swapped or something). According to my friend, I was maybe the second person that cat had ever been that affectionate with, outside her - she HATED everyone else for some reason, but was super chill with me.
