Just to add my tuppenceworth on the rusty thing........ When Bernie arrived he was extremely rusty but that was down to malnutrition. I am not suggesting that Onyx is malnourished as I know you feed her very well Eileen, but it did take a long time for Bernies coat to turn black. He still has a rusty look when the sunshine hits him as does Eva and they cannt possibly be malnourished. I think its just a quirk of many black cats to be honest. |

Interesting point! I seem to remember reading somewhere over the years that breeders didn't want their black show cats to get too much sunshine as it would give the coats a rusty tinge...will have to Google this tonight after dinner when it's the wee hours there and no one to chat to! |
