I was wondering if you would do me a favor and post about one kitten I have for adoption. I found all the other kittens in the warehouse homes. She will be fixed Tuesday and UTD on all shots. She is all black, cuddly , and 14 weeks old. I am trying like heck to find her a home. I live in the Bronx but can travel. The mothers are both to be fixed Tuesday, too. All the shelters are full and 5 cats in one apartment is a lot, so six would be pushing it.
She is the sister (I think) of my two kittens. The only one left in the warehouse, but taken care of by the staff. The two mothers (sisters) had kittens less than a week apart and both are solid black. They ended up trading kittens back and forth and finally placed them on the second story when the warehouse flooded and combined them. I pulled a bunch of kittens at 4 weeks and hand raised them, but couldn’t catch them all (living under pallets), but she is super tame and cuddly.
I also found a picture of her sisters. They are all identical, so I am not sure if she is in there or not.
On a side note, I have to add that of all the black cats I’ve known, every one of them has been absolutely awesome. Our two black cats (Maxi and Tommy) have loads of personality, and that’s held true for all the black fosters we’ve had.
Another thumbs-up for black cats: My Moxie is black (except for her armpits, where she has tufts of white) and is the best cat ever ever ever. She loves to cuddle and be held like a baby. She likes a bit of petting before she eats. She’s a great mouser but leaves the birds alone (for the most part). I luff her. Black cats rule all.
I can’t take the cat, but just wanted to chime in… my black cat is the sweetest cat I’ve ever met. Forget the superstition about black cats being bad luck–do you know that a black cat living with you is supposed to bring GOOD luck?
