Hi everyone! Today is Black Cat Appreciation Day so our only selfie is of Trouble.
And for some fun we are going to have a contest open to everyone.
Trouble is currently our only black cat, but as long time readers know, we have had several. Try to list as many as you remember. I will give you a hint, there were 5 others. Whoever guesses them all correctly wins and in the event of more than one of you guessing, we will pull names to get the winner. If no one gets them all, we will pick whoever gets the closest. And the winner will get a $10 Amazon gift card.
Contest ends Tuesday 9PM ( EST) -winner will be announced on Wednesday’s post.
We are joining,Β The Cat On My Headβs Sunday Selfie Blog Hop.
Beautiful picture of Trouble! Well, my recall isn’t what it used to be! I remember your black and white cat named Emmy from your wonderful picture book, I Am Not A Skunk. That’s about as close as I can get right now though. I find nowadays that I’m glad I wrote some things down. Happy Black Cat Appreciation Day to all! XO
Trouble thanks you. π I didn’t count Emmy in the black cat list because she was a tuxie. Thank you for saying her book was wonderful. XO
Cute selfie of Trouble. I just can’t think of the names. Happy Black Cat Appreciation Day!
Trouble thanks you. π XO

I truly don’t understand why in this day and age so many peeps are leery of these lovable and ordinary cats…no different than any other kitty! All the black cats I have know were fun and sweet kitties!
I agree. I can’t tell if you are right until Wednesday. XO
We would love to get into trouble with Trouble. Such a beauty. And wow, five kitties all black…we’ll try to remember.
Trouble thanks you. π XO
A lovely selfie of a fine feline wh I’m sure does not live up to her name π

I will have to watch for the list of the names of your black cats. Trouble looks to be a sweetie.
Trouble thanks you. π She is a sweetie. XO
Happy Black Cat Day, Trouble. All I remember are Jinx, Spooky, and Drake, I think. I love black cats! π½
Trouble thanks you. π XO
It’s your day, Trouble … so live up to it! We might be a spoiler on this game, so won’t play. Have a file for 15 and Meowing, probably of “all” your kitties going back like 10-15 years … yup, we’d spoil the game …
but good luck to the other players! BLACK CATS are super cats!
Trouble thanks you. π Yes, you would know them all as you did make a badge for every one of them. XO
Trouble is looking very handsome. I looked down my Rainbow Bridge pages at all the black cats. I was surprised at how few there were! I think I have them in order of passing with the latest first, but I did have trouble (small t!) with Blogger a while back messing things around, so the order could be totally wrong.

I haven’t followed you long enough to know them all. I’ve had 2 black cats and both were….umm….trouble for sure! Loved them both though. Jake and Lacy both RIP. Sasha is a tux and she may be even more naughty than the blacks.
Sasha is not naughty. π

Happy Black Cat Appreciation Day to Trouble. Scrolling quickly through comments, it looks like some may have been able to name all the black cats. Our mom just came up with three: Jinx, Tallulah, Noel. As we said in our Monday post, her brain has petrified! Anyhoo, thanks for hopping with us! XOCK, angels Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta & Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy, Sawyer, Kizmet, Audrey & Raleigh

Oona: “Oona wishes a happy belated Black Cat Appreciation Day to all of her fellow black cats out there, including the fluffy ninja Trouble! And that is quite the beautiful and personable black cat in the Black Cat Appreciation Day image, if Oona does say so herself.”
Chaplin: “You’re just saying that because it’s a picture of you.”
Oona: “OONA IS SAYING IT BECAUSE IT IS OBJECTIVELY TRUE!”
We hope Oona was spoiled on her special day. XO
