She may be 19 and a half, a bit frail, and a bit dotty, but there's nothing wrong with her reactions ..... or her hearing when it suits her, apparently!

Come on Helen, there was a delay - it took her at least 1/4 of a second to respond!

Re: Minnie-in-the-box
Her dinner was due, which explains a lot! 
Merrick is my only black cat (or mostly black, he has a white locket). Minnie is a proper 'Felix' type black and white.

Considering I never really got to chose most of my gang as they were taken on due to their circumstances (only Daz, who I spotted as a Top Cat on Cat Chat and fell for), it's remarkable that I've ended up with cats that all look so different - Minnie: black and white, Merrick: black, Grumpy Nellie: calico tortie, Daz: mostly white with black and Basil: ginger and white ....... and then there's Teasel the foster tabby! Only Coco the newest foster is a repeat, being all black.

Like a coiled spring

Friends say they are colour coordinated with the outside of our house
Mr G is grey and white

Re: Minnie-in-the-box
Obviously getting confused, she's in lovely condition for an old girl
Colour was always the last thing that I thought of when adopting my guys. I still can't understand why black and black/white cats are so unpopular, my black with a few white sprinkles Hector is so beautiful, sleek and glossy. And my black and white pickle Pip has such striking markings, everyone comments on her beauty spot, tail that looks like it was dipped in a paint pot and black eyeliner. I do have 2 tabbies too, Tig who is grey and Officer Noodle is fawn

Re: Minnie-in-the-box
I always think of Pip when I see cats with eyeliner - hers is perfect! The facial markings on black and white cats is always so characterful - Minnie's little, slightly skewed, face has made me smile for nearly 20 years! Glossy black cats are gorgeous too, and I love the way the eyes stand out on black cats.
