We cats love to be up high. When I'm sittin' on this beam, I can see the second floor & down below to the first floor. When people walk in the door, they never look up so they don't see us. They don't know that there's a 'cat-on-the-beam' watching their every move, listening to their every word. It's our way - secretive, hidden, you know what I mean.

'Meanie' Gracee said I insulted her. I'm just a truth-teller, know what I mean? This is a real live pic of Penny. One of her front paws is sorta' different. Penny jumps & runs just like any other dog. She's happy. Most important, she's loved. So are we. 'Priceless Penny' is available on Amazon & Kindle with 5 Star reviews.

Gracee:  What's this? Inkee-Bear: A book. Must I explain everything? Sigh. Gracee: Maybe Meowmuh will write a book about us!  Inkee-Bear:  Not about you.

What did I tell you? Patience is a virtue. Patience pays off. So, just be patient. You'll always get what you want.  See what I'm sayin'? Sophee's doin' her catnappin' beauty-rest thing in her fav cat tree in the other room. And me? I've got the catwalk all to myself as you can clearly see.

Sophee: Got ya!  On the run you gi-normous bully? Scared of a little girl half your size? They say I'm pretty, but I can take care of myself, know what I mean?  The proof is in the pudding, so to speak.  Inkee-Bear:  The better part of valor for a gentleman in this situation is--give it up. I'm outta' here--at least for the time being.

Sophee:  Here's that something special I promised! Warned ya'! Oh, didn't hear me? Earth to Inkee!! Get goin', get off my catwalk, get outta' my face!  Inkee-Bear:  Good grief. She's serious. She's the prettiest calico I've ever met but... Yikes. What's a gentleman to do under these circumstances?

Sophee:  You're not comin' up here.  I'm not even gonna' look at you.  Don't see you, don't hear you, you're not even there.  Inkee-Bear:   I'm not lookin' at you either. Don't see you, don't hear you, you're not even there. Trust me, when I do look at you, you'll be gone.

More FACTOIDS about Black Cats: The Pilgrims were devout believers in the Bible -- God was light & Satan was darkness/blackness. Being a suspicious group, anything remotely associated with Satan (darkness/blackness) was EVIL!  Anyone caught with a Black Cat was severely punished, even killed.

Wanna' be in the know? Here's some pawsome FACTOIDS about us Black Cats: There's no one breed of Black Cat. There are 22 cat breeds in the Cat Fanciers' Association directory that list 'black' as a color option. Black Cats can be boys or girls, but more are male than female.

Yes, you can appreciate me (and all black cats) on Friday and every other day if you want to. I’m cool with that. I'm kool, calm, affectionate & a good hunter. My sibs scramble, jump & grab at anything that moves. Anything. They're like frenetic. Me? I wait. Then I wait some more. Then, BOOM!  I come outta’ nowhere & snatch it!!  Everyone is surprised!
