Hey guys,
I have three cats, and in the household we have a total of 5. My three are all black, two girls and a boy. I would like to determine a possible genetic link, although all of them are mixed-bred with DSH. Reason why I'm looking for a possible similarity, I'm looking for general life-span, and possible medical issues common to the breed. Although, most tabbys have no serious health issues, and
Charms, 2.5 years old, male, large green-to-gold eyes (his eyes change colour), 100% black with a rust patch, fairly large, not heavy (due to a diaphragmatic hernia), large paw size, strong build, long, tall, thick medium length soft coat of silk with little dark grey undercoat, requires daily brushing, always shedding, and an impeccable personality. Quiet, calm, relaxed, very gentle, requires moderate attention, behaves like a Velcro cat and is very strict with diet. Has a history of an accident induced diaphragmatic hernia, prone to UTI's and a build-up in the urethra requiring catheterizing on occasion. Charms will chew anything plastic, or mine; laptop, cellphone, hard plastic shopping bags, LOVES leather, etc.
Willow, 13 months old, female, beady golden/amber eyes, 99.9% black and going "grey" on the back of the head, small, small paw pads, thin, long, slender build, very Egyptian-looking, no medical history, never requires brushing, short wirey coat with no undercoat. Very quiet, needs very little attention, very light high-pitched meow (sounds like a child honestly). Willow is an almost silent cat, known as the Eternal Kitten.
Twixy, 6 months old, female, stunning big green eyes, 100% black, stocky build, medium sized, heavy like stone, WILL NOT STOP EATING, large law pads, "lion snout", silky coat with no undercoat, vibrating tail, always very alert with big wide eyes looking like the Energizer bunny on steroids, back twitches when excited. Very raspy load meow, not nearly as graceful as a Siamese (that's how bad the rasp is) It almost sounds like a constant complaint. Will eat ANYTHING, and everything you put in her bowl.. Sleek tail which seems to have a permanent hook... Requires too much attention, purrs incessantly, but very aggressive - fights all the time.
All of them are 100% black, paw pads included.
