Post by: Janeyk on March 21, 2009, 14:10:52 PM: If it's black do you tick black/chestnut? and just put cats we have now or have had?
Title: Re: Which colour cats do you have more of, and which type are your fave?
Post by: CC & The Pussycat Guys & Dolls on March 21, 2009, 14:14:16 PM: The reason for the black/ chestnut is.... My Ollie is black but in the sun he is chestnut, but hold on I will do a pure black, as I know some people have these.

You can do a round up of all cats if you like :)

Post by: Liz on March 21, 2009, 14:19:08 PM: We have Black, Tabby's some pure tabbies and 2 with white paws, we have ginger longhaired and ginger and white shorthairs, we have 3 colours of pure grey and grey and white, we have brindle torties and a calico tortie, we have white with a hint of black

I love my black cats, Robin loves his tabbies and the rest are loved for who they are

Whatever the colour a Clan Cat is loved for being themselves the colour just adds to the fun! ;D

Post by: Tiggy's Mum on March 21, 2009, 14:32:52 PM: Both mine are grey but I don't love them beacuse of what colour they are, I love them because of 'who' they are :Luv2: :Luv2: :Luv2:

Post by: Wibblechick on March 21, 2009, 14:57:19 PM: One black (but your right, he goes sort of auburn in the sun!!) :Luv: and one Tabby/Tortie :Luv2:

Post by: moiramassey on March 21, 2009, 15:30:12 PM: Blacks are always my first choice but it doesn't always work ou that way :) as you can see from the photos below!
Title: Re: Which colour cats do you have more of, and which type are your fave?
Post by: Catjane on March 21, 2009, 16:10:37 PM: I went and checked the first 'black' one (with chestnut brown), but they're actually completely black except for a few white tummy hairs.

My fave colour is grey and white. I don't know why! And I don't have one that colour!
Title: Re: Which colour cats do you have more of, and which type are your fave?
Post by: Kay and Penny on March 21, 2009, 16:37:42 PM: I've always had a soft spot for big ginger boys, the ones with huge faces and attitude

and now I have a golden girl who pretty much fits the description too, plus my Russian Blue boy

Yep our Squeaky was black but had distinct auburn tinge on his tum in the sun, whereas Timmy was jet black. Smokey was black with sort of specks of white in and Schui was black but with white bib, back feet and 1 front toe :evillaugh: Byron is tortie and white and our Penny was tabby and white. I have a soft spot for black cats.

I like this thread it's interesting ;D
Title: Re: Which colour cats do you have more of, and which type are your fave?
Post by: Indys Mamma on March 21, 2009, 16:58:20 PM: 1 Black and White
1 Tabby White
1 Chocci Tortie and White - I still think Mabel looks like a white cat spattered with cocoa and coffee :rofl:

and my favourite is cat coloured :innocent:

Post by: JackSpratt on March 21, 2009, 17:55:32 PM: None of mine are the same colour! (As you can see from the banner.)

I have to admit to having a soft spot for ginger cats. ;)
Title: Re: Which colour cats do you have more of, and which type are your fave?
Post by: Susanne (urbantigers) on March 21, 2009, 18:24:03 PM: Easy for me - 2 cats and they're both ginger ;D ok, so Mosi considers himself red ;)
Title: Re: Which colour cats do you have more of, and which type are your fave?
Post by: Stuart on March 21, 2009, 18:27:18 PM: Misty Blue of course
and I'll admit there's something I find appealing with Black and White's :evillaugh:
Title: Re: Which colour cats do you have more of, and which type are your fave?
Post by: Susanne (urbantigers) on March 21, 2009, 18:40:59 PM: Forgot to say what is my favourite. Neither Jaffa nor Mosi were deliberately chosen because they were red, but I have to admit that I do have a soft spot for red cats now, so if I had to choose a colour I'd probably go for red. But once I start thinking about what colours I like I generally find something to like about almost any colour. I love black and whites cos Magpie was black and white :Luv:, black cats tend to have lovely shiny fur, I love torties that have little splodges on their nose, I love blue and silver somalis.....

Post by: soudicca on March 21, 2009, 20:02:23 PM: Jake is pure black. Of my previous four two where black and white sisters, the other two black except Jade did that wonderful chestnut tan in the summer when she sunbathed. I also have a love of gingers, having a little ginger boy who comes to visit on a regular basis - he is a neighbour's cat but very friendly.

Post by: Rosella moggy on March 21, 2009, 22:45:32 PM: Both me and OH have soft spots for black cats so that's why 3 out 6 are black although have to say I think tabbies are the most beautiful (curtseys to Princess Noni :) )

Post by: Janeyk on March 22, 2009, 10:21:16 AM: Not many all white ones and no bengals so far (although we have a few bengal kitties on here :)) the nos keep changing all the time though :wow:

Post by: Desley (booktigger) on March 22, 2009, 11:16:08 AM: i love pure blacks and pure whites, but not always keen on black and whites, although I like white and blacks. I also love tabbies and gingers. Not overly keen on torties, despite technically owning one (not my choice, that was down to the rescue for not rehoming her). I would love to own a grey and white at some point, but i rarely get to choose my cats!!

Good answer and the same here - it is irrelevant really :Luv2:

Post by: Janeyk on March 22, 2009, 13:48:55 PM: Crikey these stats keep changing all the time.

I've rarely chosen my cats but do have a thing for blacks, I've never had an all ginger, all tabby or grey cat

Post by: Kucinta on March 22, 2009, 15:09:56 PM: Umm, I've got a couple of sepia agouti coloured Singapuras, but I have always liked small black cats, white cats, grey cats and am a sucker for blue eyed cats, would love a rag doll or birman type some day.
Title: Re: Which colour cats do you have more of, and which type are your fave?
Post by: CC & The Pussycat Guys & Dolls on March 22, 2009, 15:36:10 PM: I have only chosen 4 of my cats and always seem to go for the black and whites. I was really unsure about getting Harry, he's my all grey boy, cos I thought it would look strange for some reason :Crazy:

And with Princess De-Lyla there was a ginger and black and white in her litter, but Lyla was just too pretty to walk on by. So I choose her :Luv2: She is my very cute but nutty naughty tortie.
Title: Re: Which colour cats do you have more of, and which type are your fave?
Post by: Kirst on March 22, 2009, 16:59:46 PM: Two ginger and whites and a posh 'red' point for me...................... ;D
Title: Re: Which colour cats do you have more of, and which type are your fave?
Post by: Gillian Harvey on March 22, 2009, 18:57:43 PM: Not nearly enough colour selections for me to choose LOL! but anyway,

I've got :

1 red point
1 cream point
1 blue point
1 blue/cream point
1 lilac point
1 seal tabby point
1 seal point
1 RED
1 silver tipped
1 tabby
1 ginger and white

Favourite? don't think I've got a favourite colour, but I do like dilute torties and dilute tortie points. :)
Title: Re: Which colour cats do you have more of, and which type are your fave?
Post by: woodlandcats on March 22, 2009, 19:19:48 PM: Calico I prefer, a pet must have white for me, I have 14 piggies and only 2 have no white. I have 9 cats and only 2 have no white. My rabbits all have white.
My dogs are both yellow, no white :rofl:

I have 2 tortoise, one with just a bit of white, the other one more and then one calico
.
I happen to have 3 black/white males, the youngest just a touch of white.
Then one ginger female with only the smallest spot of white and one tortiepoint siamese.
And of course my baby, grey tabby + white.
Title: Re: Which colour cats do you have more of, and which type are your fave?
Post by: Wibblechick on March 22, 2009, 19:28:15 PM: Ive fostered and owned all sorts but Ive never had a ginger ....

I must have told lots of people that Id love a ginger kitten (not going to happen while we have Mr T and Chloe) as Ive been given several ginger soft toys.

They used to sit on the bed but Mr T has ousted them and I now have a small cat collection in the corner of the bedroom. OH calls it my feral colony :rofl:

Post by: Rosella moggy on March 22, 2009, 23:08:55 PM: Still don't understand how on earth we ended up with Freddie (LH white with tabby splodges) Just not what I'd "planned" at all but OMG....
...... to think of life without him now is impossible :Luv: :Luv: :Luv:

Purrsonalities are so much more important than looks :)

Title: Re: Which colour cats do you have more of, and which type are your fave?
Post by: Dawn F on March 23, 2009, 15:21:33 PM: well I've got

a brindle torti
a white with tabby bits long hair
a dark tabby
a bengal

what would I really like - a blue cream torti or a seal point anything, but as well all know the cats choose you!
Title: Re: Which colour cats do you have more of, and which type are your fave?
Post by: Gill (sneakiefeline) on March 23, 2009, 17:14:49 PM: Well only two fit on your list LOL cos I have two posh cats :rofl: :rofl:

Franta a seal point and Ducha a blue point.

Misa of course my giant B& W and then Missa Sasa a calico.

I reckon I just love all colours and Kocka was of course a blue cat. so have great affection for them but also I love pale gingers and definately B&Ws but also love dilute torties and calicos and blacks.....well just all of them really .........sigh

Post by: Beth on March 23, 2009, 19:41:52 PM: I don't think many people end up with the cat they think they want, if you were to ask me before getting my two i'd have said i love BIG fluffy boy cats, and i've ended up with two dainty little DSH girlies and i wouldn't change them for he world. :Luv2: I was never a big fan of tabbies but since getting Ginny i look at every cat i see and there are so many gorgeous colours and patterns of tabbies, i love them. :Luv2:

My dream cat would be a long haired white with odd eyes. :Luv2: :Luv2: :Luv2:

I so agree about not ending up with a cat that meets your intitial description and that will be good for a thread all of its own :rofl: :rofl:

Fair point - when I got Old Mog, I'd initially chosen a small torti who was semi feral. Fate played a part in the situation because the little kitten fell ill and didn't make it. It was terribly sad, but I think things happen for a reason.

I like to think the little torti is playing with other cats that have passed on somewhere now.
