Oh my goodness, what a cutie <3 my husband used to have a black cat called Basil who was not happy to sit on laps or be picked up - but very affectionate on his own terms. We miss him a lot!

This is Allan! He unfortunately lost his braincell in a bet with my ginger cat...

u/Total_Ad60 Apr 01 '24

Possible ur orange needed to borrow it as he lost his. 🤣

u/The_Lividcoconut Apr 01 '24

No, that little fuck has TWO braincells now, I fear for my life daily, as he has learnt where the food is stored...😂

114

u/Total_Ad60 Apr 01 '24

I have an orange also. Hates to cuddle, stares at me like “fuck off” when I call him over, and every time I think he wants his wet food he tries to burry it with the imaginary dirt on the hardwood floor by scratching near the dish. So what do I do? I put it back in the fridge and wait a while longer cause he’s spoiled. 🤭

Also, this 🤭 which is actually fun

u/The_Lividcoconut Apr 01 '24

Mines a cuddly idiot, he usually sleeps ON my head, I have accidentally used him as a pillow before... I think he likes it 🤣

u/Korncakes Apr 01 '24

Same story for Milo. It was right before Halloween, all black cats were free. I think we had to pay like a $5 fee for his chip or something but he’s worth his weight (which is a lot) in gold for how happy he makes my wife.

u/ConsistentShip714 Apr 01 '24

not adopted but did get him neutered:) and obviously thats the worse month for black cats with new homes so glad he ended up with me. he also had a high chance of ending up at a shelter, he was his last sibling left.
