I have a soft spot for gingers but 2 other things are more likely to catch my attention and they are extra toes and big fat tom cats   :Luv:

Im not keen on BSH or kids  :rofl:

when i was little (about 7 i think) i really really wanted a long haired pure white female cat with blue eyes, pink nose and pink pads. then my mum turned up with this scrawny unkempt shothaired tabby male kitten with a peach nose, peach pads and green eyes, and from that second on, my universe centered around him  :Luv:

that said, i love black and white and black colours but its personality above all else. i honestly cant remember how i used to feel about red/ginger cats  :Crazy: since the arrival of lucifer i think theyre so gorgeous but i cant remember if it was always like that!

I don't seem to like the appearance of none symmetrical cats either but I did have one and I loved her to bits. The beauty is on the inside.

I have a 10 year old who is a dilute tortie and she is half Persian and exceedingly fluffy and I think she is beautiful!! 
She sounds gorgeous
I also have a black and white moggie who is so pretty and now a 1/4 Persian tabby and a 3/4 Persian smokey tabby. 
All three sound gorgeous
So I have two long hair cats and two short hair cats.  I don't have a favourite colour but I have always wanted a colourpoint and I think it will be many years before I get one.  My least favourite are solid colours but I think it is all in the personality really but
I would never seek out a solid black cat.  Shame on you. I'm sure they don't think much of you either lol
Slightly off topic, I am very partial to Persians as I think they have wonderful laid back temperaments and very fluffy bottoms!
Before fluffy Freddie arrived, I'd never have considered a long haired cat especially a mainly white one but his fluffy bottom is a delight!

Cats eh!  :rofl:

Ultimately, I know that if a waif or stray turned up on my doorstep, I'd end up taking it in regardless of what colour or breed [or not] it turned out to be. I only went to the CP looking for 1 [2 at most] cats and ended up with 6.

It doesn't take much of a sad story to get me thinking I could squeeze one more in...went to CP foster mum - looked round - no kitties caught my eye - turned to leave and came face to face with a tiny long haired black and white kitten - he'd climbed the fence up to my head height [5'7"] - we looked at each other - he shouted at me -  and the foster mum said the fateful words......oh, that's Humphrey, he tries ever so hard but no-one ever notices him  :(.  It's been 9 years now and he still shouts at me!

Yes Gill I more than many am well aware of that, and i wasnt condeming so please dont accuse me of doing something i didnt do.  Regardless of anyones experiences after birth the fact they were born means for the biggest majority their mothers thought enough not to have them aborted.  Just a pity for many of us that might have been a better option for the first 16 years !

Anyway that is just far too way off topic even for me  :tired:

The ironic part of this thread is that when this has come up in the past, I have been questioned for not liking torties, so I was happy with the way this thread was going!!

Agree with Desley again!

You see Lynn I think it comes down to our personal experiences often, so dont condemn us! Each of us do what we needs to do to get by in life and we are of course all different , thank goodness  ;D

Sorry, my mistake, I actually thought they were classed as different, but upon checking Messybeast, grey doesnt come under the list of colours.
Sorry if you are bothered Gillian, I will happily list the pedigrees I dont like!! And I dont hide the fact I dont like kids!!

apperently he left home (ran away) when he was about 4, packed up all his stuff into a sheet or something and knotted it onto a pole of some kind as seen in cartoons , put his kilt on and walked up the road (country/farm lane) waited for half an hour then returned home as he got bored :rofl:

Just a little bit about preferences - it'd be a pretty boring forum if we all sat around telling each other how marvellous everything is, people have opinions and preferences and I think that as long as no-one is being abusive or deliberately offensive, it's nice to be free to express that opinion  :).

After all, we all love cats or we wouldn't be here  ;D so I don't think any of us actually hates any particular breed, or, indeed, colour.

It wouldn't do for us all to be the same  ;)

Nope reckon that tweed would have been far too itchy to wear in barbados CC  :evillaugh:

Apparently he had a little kilt when he was about 3 and never took it off, but hasnt worn one as an adult..i did try to get him to try one on once but he just wouldnt.

So did he not wear a kilt for your wedding Lynn? I thought that was the done thing if your a Scot.

Its not the kilt thats intriguing its whats underneath or should I say whats not underneath.  :evillaugh:

Unlike mine who refuses to wear anything else it's a smart occasion (with the exception of funerals). Trying to persuade him to wear a suit to my graduation rather than his kilt rig out but don't think I'll manage to persuade him.
