Photo Hunt: Black

May 1, 2010 By: Sparkle Cat27 Comments

There are no black cats here. Just some-black cats. Binga, being a tortoiseshell cat, is black with a bunch of other colors mixed in.

Can YOU find the lost cat toy in this shot? Hint - it is not black.

But me, I don’t just toss on black like any old accessory. I use it as an accent to offset the reddish brown of the rest of me. For example, I have natural black eyeliner.

This is a much neater line than my human can draw on her own eyes.

I also have a sassy splash of black on my fluffy tail.

All the better to shun you with.

And here’s my favorite black accessory — my black paws.

Makes it easier to see if I got all the kitty litter off 'em.

When it comes to accessorizing, a little black goes a long way!

    oooh those captivating eyes, that floofy tail and black toesies! You are the epitome of a designer cat.
    I love Binga’s sweet little round face and those innocent eyes that just mask her tortie-ness, which we all know lies just under the surface.

    Oh yeah, love the black paws too! Now I’m wondering if you have perfectly outlined black lips to go with your eyes, like Bella.

    Thank you for dropping by my blog. My greatest asset is my eyes. They are blue with black eyeliner. My whiskers aren’t bad either. But I definitely am not black. (Grey’s not bad.)

    You and Binga certainly are very stylish pussycats! No basic black for you. You certainly know how to use it well as an accessory to highlight the other stunning colours in your furs.

    We think Binga is verry pretty, we like her little checkerboard face! Sparkle, can Mommy play with your toesies?

    You’re a gorgeous girl, Sparkle. We absolutely adore Binga’s markings. We don’t see many dark torties here, and mum thinks they are absolutely stunning (though she may be a little biased 🙂 ).

    Those black paws are just awesome. The black in your tail is great too. Binga really is a beautiful cat.
    Hope you have a wonderful week end.

    Sparkle, hope you won’t be offended or shocked when I tell you that from the black, you look somewhat *gasp* dog-like… ;b
