“I want the cat that no one’s want” THIS WOMAN IS AN ANGEL.

i have never understood why people don’t like black cats, maybe because of superstition 🤷🏻‍♀️ i love them, they’re gorgeous and have such pretty eyes 🥺

"People that say they don't like cats or think that cats are not affectionate or smart, it's because they've never had a cat" -- 100% TRUE!!!!!!

My Wife eventually talked me into getting a cat almost 40 years ago. With the odd exception of a few months, we have had cats ever since. Every one of them has its own unique personality. I was told, "Cats will forget all about you after 2 weeks". I went on a deployment for over six months, when I came back my cat went NUTS! It was like I was a giant piece of catnip. She knew who I was and as independent as she was, she now would look up at me and in cat-speak ask/demand an "Uppie". If I didn't pick her up sometimes she would just jump up into my arms.

I love that she asked specifically for a cat that wasn't getting adopted! We need so many more people like her!!

She hit the nail on the head. People who say they don't like cats just never got to know them. What sweet little panther bros.

10 years ago, I adopted a black cat from a rescue, I was his third home. He is 11 going on 2. He has so much personality, is playful and has so much energy. He's very chatty and the most loving cat, it's borderline excessive.😂 He loves being held and gives the best hugs. He sleeps with me at night and is the first one at the door to greet when I get home (in front of 2 dogs). I can't fathom 2 homes passing on him, but their loss is our gain. Hes an amazing little dude! 🐈‍⬛❤️

My life has also been graced with two bonded black brothers, Raven and Pluto. I called the rescue woman and told her I wanted a black cat. She said she happened to have two black brothers, but they couldn’t be separated. I happily took them both. She said the smaller one, whom I named Raven, needed his brother for support because he was shy and nervous. Both of them are wonderful affectionate fellows with very different personalities. I couldn’t love them more. Formerly nervous little Raven has been asleep in my lap for the last hour. Thanks for your video.

I love it. I went into a shelter a few years ago and adopted a 17 year old black cat. He came home and he acted as tho he lived with me his whole life. He lived another year and a half.

I was adopted by a black cat named Norton. He showed up at my house one evening and decided to stay for another 12 years. After I had to let him go on his journey over the bridge, I was emotionally numb. It took almost a year before I could even think about another cat in my life. I adopted the oldest cat my local shelter had. She was left there by her owner at the age of 15, which I thought was just wrong. On the shelter's website, she was on the very bottom row of pics of adoptable cats. Almost like she was an after thought. I named her Hope and we had almost 4 years together until it was her time to also go over the bridge. She was beautiful, inside & out. Much gratitude and best wishes to this lady for also adopting cats no one wanted.

What a wonderful story!! In 2019, I adopted a cat no one else wanted. My kitty Sammy spent most of his life in a shelter and was returned twice by two different families. He's a perfect little angel. He just loves to cuddle and runs to the door to greet you -- or anyone who visits. 😺

I was always a dog person. Having spinal issues, when I thought about it for quite some time I decided to get a cat. There was a left over from a litter, a young cat no longer a kitten that had gone feral. I decided to give him a home. He hid in a closet for 12 days before he came out. I nuzzled his ear with my hand & that was it! I had named him "Kidd" after the 2 kids that helped transport him. I always believed that cats just ignored people. I later added the second part to his name "Kidd Velcro". If I am sitting or laying, he is on me wanting petting. I believe God set him aside for me. We are a perfect fit.

I adopted a bonded pair of black kittens and named them Phantom and Raven. They were brothers found in a pillow case thrown in a dumpster. They were clinging to one another so tightly I worried they might hurt themselves out of fear. Year after year they grew closer and closer. I had other rescue cats but these two were always together. I would call them one cat with two heads, because they laid together constantly. They were never aggressive unless one thought the other was in danger. They were closer than any creatures I’ve ever know. Inseparable. Maybe because starting out in life all they had was one another. One of the pair, raven, developed an illness and, after a long battle, I was forced to have the vet end his life. Phantom, seemingly healthy, with no apparently illness at all, died less than a week later. I had them cremated and their remains placed in the same box. They were 23 years of age.

When I was looking for a cat, I fell in love with a black cat named Casper. All the other cats were getting adopted, yet Casper, a senior cat, remained. The first night he was home, he sniffed and rubbed his head on everything and then plopped right in my bed with a look of “I’m home!” He’s now 10 and the best cat I’ve ever known. He’s also so well behaved as he never knocks stuff over and is so gentle and loving. He’s my best friend.

Black cats have such a nice personalities. Mine also never harm furnitures , does not touch any food unless I give to him. they are really clingy, follows you everywhere 😻

I love that you asked for a cat that was not being adopted. I love that you accepted a bonded pair and that Black was OK with you! I have loved all my black and feral cats! :)

I got a black female cat that was in the shelter for over a year. No one wanted her because she had a bad habit of chewing on cords. The moment I picked her up, I knew she was meant for me. I coated all the cords in my home with chili oil and gave her a stick to chew on instead. It worked perfectly and she is the most cuddly and affectionate cat I have ever had. I actually feel bad for the person who got rid of such a wonderful cat.

A local animal rescue has adoptions every Saturday, and they would post pics of the kittens online on Friday. They had two bonded black cats, a brother and sister. Week after week, month after month, these two were NOT getting adopted, and it broke my heart. After eight months I was like, that's it, and I went and got them. When I took them home I placed their carriers facing each other in the back seat, and at a traffic light I looked back and they had their paws touching like they were holding hands. Just like the cats in this video, mine are two little chatterboxes, never heard cats make the sounds they do. They are just adorable. Black cats get such a bad rap, but these two are such a joy to love and be loved by.

My husband and i adopted a bonded momma and daughter duo. Mom is all black, and daughter is a tuxedo. I knew black cats were harder to adopt out, but sfter adopting them i also learned that female cats are also harder to adopt out because they are more "aloof". Well let me tell you, the younger kitten spent all day curled up with me in while i was sick a few days ago, and mom was begging for pets and head scratches this morning when i got up after feeling better. I'm very thankful for my two black beauties. ❤

As the proud parent of a black kitty, I can relate to your wonderful kitties. 😊☮

Still don’t understand how they’re the last to get adopted, they’re so beautiful

So many heartwarming cat stories start with "I was never a cat person, but then--" People just don't understand cats. Once you understand how they think and how they love you, they're incredible pets.

I have 7 cats, two of which are black, and they’re the most vocal, silliest babies. Cats are life changing.

I couldn’t agree more! I grew up with dogs, but my wife had 2 cats. I was amazed by how sociable and loving they were. They have been gone a long time now, but we have used the time well! We have taken the opportunity to adopt many more! We also have dogs and my cat loving wife is now in love with our dogs as well!

I have a soft spot in my heart for black cats. Adopted one from the shelter and she lived 24 years. Still miss her every day.

We lost our cat of 20+ years early this past November, we told ourselves we’d wait for a few months to decide if we wanted to get another one. That resolution lasted about a month, just before Christmas we adopted a beautiful, black cat of about 12 years who has been in the orphanage for nearly 11 years. He’s all black, even his whiskers and he has beautiful topaz-yellow eyes, he’s very sweet but kind of skittish, he was adopted out twice but returned both times. He has no worries now, we’ve had so many cats and infinite patience for their quirks and personalities, he’s found his forever home at last.

People who won't adopt black cats are just missing out on the chance to get a terrific companion. My Murphy was a BIG long haired black cat (21 lbs. of muscle). I adopted him with his sister as 7-week-olds and 3 weeks later got another brother sister pair of kittens that a client rescued from being drowned. Murphy was SUCH an amazing cat. He also seemed to be looking into my soul at times as well. It broke my heart when I lost him to cancer at age 10 and I still miss him to this day (RIP 2011)

Thanks to everyone who gives an animal a home ❤

I’ve adopted a black cat from our vet office. She was the last one to be adopted and I absolutely love her. She is amazing and is 17 years old. 💕

My sister passed away in August of last year; I was at her house, taking care of her during her last month on earth. She had a black cat, Lando who we thought was going to a friend of hers.....last minute, friend couldn't so I TOOK HIM HOME WITH ME. It was a 9 hour car ride, and I already have a female - it was the best decision! I love having him part of our family.

Same here!!! I’ve been a dog lady all my adult life. I had 6 of them, at one point. In ‘23, I became a cat lady - brought in a 1 year old van-pattern cat, and a 7 month old black cat. I am in love.

This is a VERY unusual cat. Not only well behaved, but incredibly intelligent. He is so luck to have so many toys to play with, which helps improve his mind. My mother's cat was half Angora, sweet, and intelligent---pawing the doorknob to get out. We had a black cat, too, but his only trick was taking a nap! Thank you SO MUCH for posting this video. Thank your daughter for being so perceptive and wise.

i adopted a unwanted black cat with cloudy eye. she was very scared and not friendly at all. but the car ride home she had her head in my hand like she knew i wanted to love and care for her. it took a lot of work and time til she was much more friendly and comfortable. love my Breeze, ( my cat).

We had a black cat named, Reyna. Adopted her when she was around 10 years old from the shelter. She was so affectionate and loving, loved to be held & cuddled. She always greet our guests and friends. She sadly passed away a little over a year now. We had her for 10 extra years. So she was old, but lived a long and beautiful life. Our family misses her dearly. Black cats are awesome!

These two look just like my Chester! Who is also very talkative, sweet, playful, smart... and also does the air chomps! Also... an accident. Lol He was an outside cat when we bought our house. We built him a home on the wrap around porch. But, he was hurt. His tail had been broken off, but there was more bone left, than remaining tissue to heal around it. So every time it tried to heal, it just tore back open. Long story short, we took him for surgery, and they were able to tuck it, like you do a dog's tail. But a week long recovery inside, turned into a month... turned into a lifetime bond. He is now a very healthy, active 11 year old guy 🙂We got him a friend, to keep him young and happy. Little Stevie. We got her at 5 months old. Everyone who took her before, brought her back. I was even told that I could bring her back, if she was not what I was expecting. But, I saw her, and knew she was ours. And, that is what we wanted. One that no one wanted, that kept being thrown away. So they would never have to be rejected ever again! She is now just over a year old, grey and white mink like fur. They have been so great for one another. Perfect, really. And they love each other so much! Chester is a little guy. So even at 11 years old, and she at only 1 year, they are the same exact size. Lol (Wow... didn't mean to go on that long tangent... so sorry. Lol)

♥I adopted a black cat in 2018. He was picked up from the streets in the Bronx and transferred to a shelter in MA. He immediately got along with my daughter's cat and also gets along with our newest cat who joined the family 2.5 years ago. In the past 6 months, he has become more loveable and is actually seeking attention. Balck cats are awesome!

All the black cats I've had throughout my life were awesome, and they had wonderful personalities. I don't know why they are the hardest to adopt. They are beautiful!

After owning a black cat and having others I can’t t believe how affectionate, protective and loving they are.

I had a rescue cat named CoCo (after the Chanel fashion line) who said "momma". If I went outside, to the basement, or grocery , etc, I had to tell her goodbye, because my son told me she looked everywhere and screamed loudly "momma momma momma" over and over and became very distressed, anxious and inconsolable if i didn't. She would watch me mow the lawn from inside the house, and followed every step I took. I guess that was her way of thanking me for saving her from being euthanized. She died 10 years ago due to a vets negligence and misdiagnosis. I miss her so much. CoCo, I'll meet you and all the my other pets (at least 50 or so!!!) at Rainbow Bridge. I have cancer and have faith animals are there, as their souls are pure, devoted, selfless and loving. See you soon, CoCo, save me a spot on the porch swing!!

They are so gorgeous! The reason these two felines are well behaved, is YOU! You are there for them, you talk to them and engage with them. People need to know, that you only get out of an animal what you put into them. You are a very kind, understanding soul and your animal sense that. You are the perfect cat mother and cat-woman....I have three siblings, one is a jet black cat like yours, a ginger and a Tuxedo, rescued as tiny kittens from a drain. They are so sweet and the black one is a talker, she could talk for England! Too sweet! Animals need and love their humans. The reverse is also true. Wish you and your kitties well...stay safe 🐾❤️🐾

It is totally true that we are adopted by cats while we adopt them. My girl had been handed in twice to the shelter. I saw her profile online and decided she was the one - because she really needed help. She hissed and swiped almost everyone and had been mistreated. When I met her she licked my nose. Been 11 years now. She is approximately 16 and still gets the zoomies.

I had a black cat years ago, and it was the only cat I ever had that trained me to play fetch with him. He was really kind and affectionate towards people, but he was a hunter and a fighter by nature, he used to bring in dead prey, rats, lizards, birds, and he would place them in the pantry right next to his canned cat food, like he was saying that he could fend for himself, I guess he believed he was doing his part of the family chores. We had a really deep connection, I never told my mom when I was arriving home, but ten to fifteen minutes before I got there he was already waiting for me. When he died I felt his spirit go right trough me, I felt it. I miss my cat "Bijou" 'till this day.

I adopted my cat from the pound a few years ago now. One of the workers told me that a lot of people have a bias against black cats, and I immediately thought that is stupid and ignorant. I left the pound that day with my beautiful, sweet and affectionate black cat. I wouldn’t trade him for any other cat on earth. Definitely adopt from a pound. You will not regret it! ❤

These boys are so wonderful! You are very blessed to have them in your life! I love and cherish my little black kitty, Levi, whose picture is right here. He's nearly fourteen now and he owns my home and my heart, the little dictator!

I adopted two female black cats from the same litter 3 years ago, and one of them makes that "mama" sound. It melts my heart every time.

I adopted two street kittens after having only dogs my whole life. Cats are wonderful animal companions. Didn't know what I was missing!

She has such a beautiful smile maybe because it reflects her beautiful heart. Please kindly tell us more about your daily life with your cats.Big heart from Thailand.

We got our first cat from a feral litter and he turned out to be a beautiful Bombay. So affectionate. So smart. What a gem!!!

This sounds like my story. I had to send, Tigger, an 18-year-old black cat Home. Since I was 61, I decided I would not have anymore cats. A couple weeks later a friend of mine PM me and told me there were two brothers who were two years old who needed a home. They had been looking for a permanent home for them all this time. Well, they are with me. Two lovely, kind gentle black cats. I am so grateful to those who fostered these two cats until I was ready to adopt them. They were meant to be with me.

We have a black cat named Melina. My wife found her hanging around a local hardware store several years ago. The employees told her she had been there for some time and didn't know where she came from. They would feed her bites of their lunches and let her stay in a shed behind the store. When my wife went to get in the truck to leave, Melina followed her and jumped in, which is probably the smartest thing she could have done. Now, she's always got food and water, sleeps next to our kerosene heater in winter and gets petted all the time.

My Bombay, Bean, is 20 years old and he’s so talkative and affectionate. Just like these cats 🥰

I have solid black, short haired kitty and he is super chatty! Talks all the time. Yells at me all the time too 😂. Thinks he owns the house, and thinks he's in charge.... and I adore him. ❤

My Katie was the best cat I've ever had. She lived in Texas, Florida, Maine, Hawaii, Italy and back to Texas, survived cancer and lived to be 16. She rests in my backyard now, where I can see her spot from my computer chair. Miss her still, even after 7 years

These siblings are incredibly gorgeous!! I love their personalities. They were so meant to have you as a pet parent... They absolutely adore you!

So beautiful to give a home to these fur babies

Black cats are my new favorite…they are so loving.

They are incredibly cute. These cats style of saying " mama" is so touching. They are precious.

As an owner and lover of black cats, I'll never understand that prejudice against them. I love my boy, I was looking to adopt specifically a black cat after my grey cat sadly passed away, and it's been the most wonderful 8 years with him at my side. He's adorable!

Cats and dogs are both amazing, just different. These two are precious.

❤🙏Blessings on the kind souls who embrace and love the so called imperfect ones ,animals, humans , plants ,or other!❤🙏

They are so sweet. I had a black cat once. Her name was sheba. She galloped across the floor like a dog. And you could pick her up , and let her legs just hang. I would pet her side of her butt, kinda hard. Not to hurt her. When I would stop, she would bite my hand to continue. I loved her so much. She had alot of siamese in her. When she mowed in a very deep cat voice. Anyway I can relate. Love your cats.

My mom was a dog person through and through - until, many years ago, she took in a pregnant stray cat who had no place to go. Neighbors came over and gave homes to the kittens when they were 8 weeks old. Mom kept "Mama" , who got along famously with the Pug, Binky. Well, so much for being just a dog person 😂

I recently rescued a stray black kitten: he's gorgeous and loving ❤️

You have as much personality and spunk as your 2 beautiful cats! I had a cat that fetched. So unexpected, isn't it?

I also was a dog person, I had Siberians for 35 years, then one day I befriended 3 stray cats that were coming around in February of 2019. One was pitch black and the other two was brown/gray Tabbies, very common cats. I didn't know the sex of any of them, but by June of that year I did. The black cat was a female, she brought 5 beautiful pitch black kittens up onto my deck for me to see. I quickly got them into a crate with food and litter, a kitten rescue came and got them the next day, they were about 5 or 6 weeks old and eating canned wet food. Fast forward to October of the same year, mommy brought me 3 more babies that were appx 2 weeks old, the babies were brown/gray Tabbies this time. One of the males actually came to my backdoor and kept meowing until I followed him, he took me to where mommy was all curled up with the babies. So I took the babies and brought them into my house and placed them in the middle of the kitchen floor, so mommy could hear them crying and would try to get them back. But I left the door open, I hid behind the door, mommy snuck in to get them, but when she came in I closed the door behind her. She tried to get out but I showed her the babies so she came to them and snuggled with them and calmed down and started to nurse them. So needless to say I fostered these cats with the intention of spaying and neutering all of them and finding them homes. I had them all fixed, shots and FIV checked...all was good. As I fostered these cats I grew to love them, so much so that they never left, all 4 are my treasured pets and companions to this day. I have treated them like dogs, so they do tricks, fetch balls and hair ties as I shoot them through the air and bring them back on command. They understand everything I say to them and have my routine down pat, so I have learned to love and respect cats as they are clever and smart more than I ever knew. Cats are the new dog for some people, I'm one of those people..... :)

They are beautiful! Never understand why people think black cats are bad luck, no cat is bad luck!

I love hearing stories like this! I'm a lifelong cat lover myself. I simply don't have the right environment/ lifestyle to be a good dog parent. My 2 cats interact with me in a similar way, fetching and speaking to me. I couldn't imagine my life without my 2 girls keeping me company. Tu for sharing your cat story. Hopefully it will encourage more people to give cats a chance when they see how much fun cats really can be. 😻💖😻💖

My fiance and I adopted a 3 year old black cat. At the adoption center, he was the only one who sat next to me and tried to get my attention, and inmediately knew he was the one. I love him, he is just so adorable, calm, and his meows are so soft, he certainly helped me with my depression, now I start my days much more motivated.

I recently got a senior rescue cat that is black. I was shocked when the told me they have a hard time placing black cats. She is absolutely the sweetest, most loving cat I have ever seen!! Glad you adopted the pair!!

I adopted a sad little black cat at the shelter and I must say, she is the most loving cat ever. Every time I feel sad, stressed out, frustrated she comes to me and lays on my lap. I love her so much.

What a sweet, kind story.

Two incredible cats. You are lucky to have them.

We had a black cat. He loved to listen to classical music! He was quite smart. He passed away about a year ago and we miss him very much.

The world needs more people like you.

They're so adorable! God bless you for adopting unwanted black cats. I've had several and they steal your heart. They're protective like no other. 🥰

I've just watched this again. I adore these cats. Sadly my 7 is now down to 5. I've had 2 euthanised because of cancer. My British shorthaired blue girl Darcy, Was dianoised with a massive brain tumour that was just about the same size as her brain, she lasted 7 weeks. 4 weeks later it was my oldest Burmese girl Pasha who was beige with dark brown points on her ears, nose, paws and tail. She had T Cell Lymphoma of her stomach, diagnoised August 2022 on March 15th she had another CT scan, and the news was bad, very bad, we had her home for two weeks before I had to take her back to the vet. It's heartbreaking watching them come to the end of their lives it dosent feel fair. They should be allowed a much longer life.

I'm a huge cat person and I love black cats just as much as the others. I love how their fur shines in the light and how their eyes are much more pronounced. You're awesome for taking them when no one else would and I think he stares at you because he can't believe you took them in like you did and he's completely happy.

I adopted a black cat from a shelter here in Tasmania 9 years ago. He was also there for 4 months because he was always being overlooked and 6 years old. Still have him and the best desicion ever in adopting him.

How wonderful to rescue these adorable cat brothers. I can see they both have fab personalities and are very handsome and cute .❤ xxx

Cats of every fur-color are wonderful !! Also , in England and Japan black cats are considered to be GOOD LUCK !!

I was a dog person my whole life, until someone convinced me to take in a kitten 4 years ago. Now, I have 3 cats whom I adore. They're all precious and crazy in their own unique way - I'm so happy I made the decision to adopt when I did. Despite the fact that they can drive you a bit mad sometimes with their antics, I have no regrets. They've done nothing but improve my life.

So great that some people realize how mentally devastated animals can be by the same traumatic experiences humans deal with. Keeping them together was absolutely the right thing to do and I’m glad they told her of the brothers and that she was all for it. Awesome! 🤙🏻

Omgosh they are so sweet! Black cats are so velvety gorgeous, I don’t understand why they are adopted last! Wonderful story! ♥️🐈‍⬛♥️🐈‍⬛😊

This is one of the most heart-warming cat videos on youtube! Your two beautiful boys are adorable. I once had a black cat and I do think they are far more demonstrative than other cats, I don’t know why, but mine was just like yours, talkative (though he never said Mama!) and always climbing onto me giving me love and kisses. I miss him dearly to this day.

I had a black cat and he was the best pet! Found him outside an apt complex when he was probably about 5 months old. He passed away when he was 19 yes 19! Lived a very long life. Miss him so much. Thank you for your kind heart and adopting these beautiful brothers.

After my childhood cats had passed, I told my mom, "if we get another cat, it's going to be a black cat" because I know how hard it is for them to be adopted out. I don't understand it, but I know it. Now I have a baby who looks like a night fury running around my room.

They are beautiful! I had a Blackie who I rescued at only a few weeks old and was literally starving. Took her home and she and my other cat just a few months older became sisters. Midnight became very ill a few months ago and took her to the vet numerous times to help her. She was so sick and was not getting better so I had to make the difficult decision to put her to sleep because she was dying. I was with her the whole time and cried and cried over her and let her know how much I lived her and what a great cat that she was. Thank God she had 10 years of life, love and happiness that she would not have had otherwise. I treasure the memories ❤

Thank you for adopting 2 together! Beautiful Balk cat! My first cat was also a black one! My husband picked from the street to bring home. I was a dog-favor person and did not anything about cats then. She was so bright and so lovable when she came to my house. Then, I started learning more about cats, and the more I knew about her, the more I fell in love with her.🥰 Then I got 2 Russian blue brothers from Bleeder and fell in love. And One day, a homeless male cat came to my front porch, I started feeding him. One day, he cried so hard at my front door. Guess what? he brought his girlfriend's cat and asked me to provide her the food. They were always together on my porch and ate together. A couple months later, guess what? The girl cat brought me cute kittens One by One to bring to my front door. Total of 3 kittens. I already had 4 cats inside of my house. But I was trying to rescue all, including mom cat. I took them to the vet, and after 8 weeks, I tried to take a showcase at Pet Mart for the adoptions. But No one adapted. So, here I am adapting the entire family except for Daddy Cat. I really liked his personality, but I could not find him anywhere. However, 10 years since then, I still have all of them together; they are my family! Mommy cat still cares for them, kissing and sleeping together, and they think they are still kittens. I hope many people will find how sweet and lovable cats are and adopt homeless cats to find a lovely home for them. 😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻💝

I adopted a black cat this year and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. He is so sweet with me, so playful, and always wants attention. VERY vocal too, which is okay! He was in the shelter for such a long time and I cannot understand why. I'm just glad I could give him a good home. :)

I don't get why some people avoid black cats. To me they are some of the most beautiful and regal looking cats.

I’m glad the person adopted them and I’m glad both these gorgeous cats have a good home😁

I keep coming back and watching this video. The two cats are adorable as is their mama. I hope you all live long happy lives

As someone who had a black feral Mom show up on my back door with her four black kittens a couple months ago, I can certainly relate to becoming a mid-life cat person. A few days ago, another one - pretty sure it’s the Daddy, started coming by as well. So I went from taking care of zero to 6, very quickly - tho because they’re feral, I guess they adopted me instead. Thx for your story!

My beautiful black cat, Rafiki, passed away on January 13th. He would've been 14 on 4/1. It was devastating. I cried for weeks. Even now, it's hard to realize he's gone.

Words can’t thank you enough for givin these two a luving,furever home and mom.

That meow was so cute and adorable 🥰 1:19

Our first cat. The one that "converted" us, was a perfect angel. She never did anything wrong. We never had to tell her 'No!' All of our cats since her, while having wildly different, individual personalities, have definitely been little stinkers at times. We loved them all, but none were as angelic as Cleo was. I've heard many similar 'first cat' stories. I'm convinced the cat gods send the best behaved ones for families' first cats, to hook us. That way we'll take care of all the demanding brats that come afterwards.

The secret to cats interacting with their owners is spending a lot of quality time bonding with them. You get out of it what you put into it. If people did this, they would realize just how intelligent cats really are.

Great Story Brenda, I was a Dog person too, love my cats. Ttys I hope. Blessings.

Thank you for adopting these black cats. When we were young children, a black cat adopted us on Halloween night and stayed with us for the rest of his life.
