I love how many of the cats in this thread have a snaggletooth. My SO found a super cute lost puppy wandering about the neighborhood, and we dropped it off at the humane society (where he was eventually reunited with his family). While there we had a look at the adoption centre for a companion to Morbo, a small tabby we took in from my SO's brother who had one rescued cat too many. She was a nervous wreck when she arrived, having been at the bottom of the totem pole at his house. A year and lots of work later, she was confident and sassy but didn't have anyone to hang out with while we were out. This is Diablo. He's two years old and a romper. He'd been in the shelter for six weeks when we saw him, and we had heard and read a lot about the dismally low adoption rates for adult black cats. After watching him for a few minutes we saw how tolerant he was of the more aggressive cats and I liked how large he was. This is Morbo. She didn't take to an intruder in the house very well at first, perhaps because of her past experience. She'd growl and hiss when he got within ten feet and spent most of the day hiding from him. Despite all her hostility, he's been a perfect gentleman and refrained from stalking or bullying her, and kept a respectable distance for the two months we've been socializing them. I was really pleased when I saw this coming home a little while ago. Anyway, I liked reading about and seeing your cats so I thought i'd share my own story.
