Very happy for you and your new little friend. Our very handsome Luca is a tuxedo. Very symmetrical aside from his face markings. Not visible in this photo are his perfect spats. Housemates Gina and Lilli in the background.

Lovely. Makes me want a glass of wine.

My Swiss family has a coat of arms. It's a man holding onions.

Oh, Gina, my tortie, who also had multiple physical issues when she joined our family, heard the purrs and looked concerned. I think she recognized a fellow tortie who’s a fighter.

Thanks for the link. Will store for my cats' old age. Funny too since my Dexter's, who sadly passed in 2021, full name was CK Dexter Haven. He was as suave as Cary Grant, for sure.
