4. The "King of the Block" on my street is a solid grey Manx.
Powerful, broad-shouldered fellow.
The first time I saw him, he was across the street with
the sun behind him...I thought he was a small bulldog or
large Boston terrier.

16. I love that pic
Edited on Thu Nov-09-06 10:12 AM by nickinSTL
and gray (or blue, in cat-geek parlance) cats are my favorite color.

I hope to have one someday. :D

(I used to have a blue-point...something. He was sort of like a big, muscular Siamese with medium-length hair and a nasty disposition :evilgrin:)

21. My cat is grey.
Well, technically, she's a calico who's only about 80 percent grey, 15 percent white and 5 percent tan.

26. They blend in to the shadows
My Russian Blue (Pushka Anastasia Sovyetskaya) got nicknamed The Invisible Cat within days of her arrival. She's exactly the colour of a shadow and even in daylight she's hard to see if she's sitting in deep shade. By dusk or at night she's quite invisible. Russian Blues are a natural breed, and I suppose that their colour (a recessive gene) would have given them an evolutionary advantage in hunting in the long twilights of northern Russia. I believe that in old Russia the "blue cats of the North" were regarded as bringers of good fortune.

I find I don't have a picture of her on-line to post. My apologies.
