I currently have 3 black cats. Black cats have always been my favorite followed by Orange as a close second.

When I get around to adopting the next cat, it's going to be a black cat. I hope to get a boy black cat so I can name him Max von Mayerling.

On the plus side, I hear black cats are good eatin'.

Personally I find caring much what color a cat is to be odd. Of all the ways to evaluate a cat, it seems like it would be pretty low on the totem pole.

I don't know if there's anything to this but all the orange cats I have met are pretty darn cool and mellow in temperament.

Orange males, especially, in my experience.

So, I haven't made much mention on the progress of Roxy, as there really hasn't been much. I'm hoping she'll come around sooner than later. She seems to be loving, but is super-scared of Markus. She also sometimes gets random spaz, scared, freak-out attacks during which she bites and hisses for what seems like no reason. She is starting to like to play and is starting to eat the food more. We've been converting her over the Markus' high end food. I was surprised she wasn't digging it more before. She only wanted her regular food, which, looking at the ingredient list, wasn't all that great for her.

Happily, Markus has really impressed us by how generally cool he is. He gets a bit bothered when she starts hissing. Once that starts he has to get all puffed up, but overall he's been a good boy.

Yes, orange males. Super nice. If I ever got a cat, it would be Charles II. Or that cool orange cat who used to drop off skinned rats and dead skunks on my neighbor's doorstep in Monterey.

Probably just coincidence but the three most annoying cats at the shelter right now are all orange males. One is super aggressive, one is a complete bully of people and other cats and the third just won't shut up.
