Pretty kitties-I’m sure they had a long and happy life-my 2 black cats are Merlyn and Lillith-Merlyn was the runt in a litter of 5-I found homes for his mom-an abandoned pet-and 4 siblings, but no one wanted him because he was tiny and sickly, so I kept him-he is now 6 years old, healthy and loves humans-particularly my best friend and employer, who has always paid special attention to him every time he is here. Lillith is 8 months old-a weekend person’s Christmas kitten they decided they did not want after all-she was only about 5-6 weeks old when I got her last Winter-I was going to find her a loving home, but my gray tabby decided to be her foster mom, and started taking care of her, so here she stayed. Like Merlyn, she is a velcro cat, like most hand raised cats tend to be. My cats are spoiled, but they are working cats, responsible for pest control...

That’s the only kind of cat to be owned by, IMHO. :)
