The winner of the Most Photogenic Black Cat Award for Black Cat Appreciation Day is this little Oriental Shorthair.
Her name is Fleur Patri Sahmet and, in this photo, she’s just 9 months old.
Let me tell you about these sleek, muscular cats and see if the description reminds you of someone.
Oriental Shorthairs, members of the Siamese family, are intelligent, social cats who bond very closely to their people. They’re known to be inquisitive, friendly, emotional, demanding and often quite vocal. Their purr can be extremely loud when happy.
Well all I can say is that the description fits me. I’m all of these things, apart from being demanding. No one could ever call me demanding, except for when I want something. I’m not emotional either.
I’m intelligent, highly intelligent as you know, a pretty friendly feline and, although I choose my audience, I can be very, if not extremely, vocal. I’ve been blessed in the beauty department too.
If I weren’t the judge in this Most Photogenic Black Cat I would have given the award to myself.
So congratulations, Fleur!
