Originally posted by OrchidJulie We used to have a cat (in our outside colony) that we called "Tuxie" for the same reason. Sadly she's no longer with us, but we did adopt one of her kittens when the little one was injured...she has nearly identical markings but she's gray rather than black. So Tuxie lives on, at least in our memory.
I'm happy you've got great memories.

Originally posted by Photos-by-Chas Cats are demanding yet independent. Our son and D-I-L have a black cat that is white underneath. Her fur at the surface is pure black, yet each individual hair has a white base about 1/4 to 1/3 of the length of the hair. She lets them know when it is time to eat and they obey.
Just as we do, when Tux demands nourishment!
