Thank you so much for the welcome. This looks like a great forum. My husband and I are Brits currently living in France. We have always had cats until we moved here from the UK in 2009. Since then we have found ourselves looking after the odd feral cat but two months ago we adopted a cat from an amazing local cat rescue and we are still getting to know each other. He's the first cat we've had that has not started out with us as a kitten. He was abandoned when his first owner moved house and the new owners of the house kept him out, so he was left to fend for himself for a few months until he was found and taken to the cat rescue. He's jet black, between three and four years old, and his name is Mr Darcy (the name chosen by the shelter so we decided to keep it). It's lovely having a pet cat again.

I've got some photos so will post them soon. He's the first all-black cat we've had. We thought about changing the name but it suits him! He's sort of dark and smouldering in that Colin Firth way! I shall look for the Black Cat thread, thanks.

A BIG welcome to you and to Mr. Darcy! Is he bilingual?
Thanks for your reply. He must be bilingual by now because his first owners were French, but the cat rescue we adopted him from is run by an English couple, and we speak a mixture of both!

Welcome to the site :welcomesign:
Looking forward to seeing pictures of Mr Darcy.
I’m imagining him as a very handsome mini black panther
