And here's some fun facts too! ๐Ÿˆโ€โฌ›

Black is the most common feline coat colour - there are as many as 22 recognised domestic breeds which can have solid black colouring. Most black cats have golden eyes due to their high melanin pigment content.

Solid-colored cats, such as entirely black cats, result from a recessive gene that suppresses the tabby pattern. However, when the tabby pattern is not completely suppressed, faint markings may appear in certain lights, even on a solid black cat! Leaving some black cats with a secret tabby coat ๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿˆโ€โฌ›

Now here's a fun fact - black cats can "rust" in sunlight! Their coat can turn a lighter brownish-red shade due to the fragile nature of Eumelanin, the pigment that is required to produce the black fur. The rusting effect can be even more pronounced in cats that frequently spend time lounging in the sun โ˜€

I have loved cats most of my life, wild and domestic. I have two cats, one is a kitten and really outgoing and active. His name is Ricky and he actually fetches like a dog. He brings me one of his toys, I throw it, and then he brings it back to me. When I brought him home at 6 weeks old, he was so super active, almost constantly on the go. Ricky is playing fetch with me right now. I have had several cats in the past, each one unique and dearly loved.

@pineapplepeanut

Aw, Ricky sounds like such fun and a good character ๐Ÿ˜ธ do you know what breed he is? Certain breeds are known for their love of playing fetch as well as some other games, and kittens especially have so much energy and are great to play with!

Wildcats are great too, do you have a favourite?
