A Black Cat By Any Other Name... Today's Featured ACEO Cat Lady

According to a Very Scientific Poll that I recently conducted on Facebook, the most popular names for a black cat are: Midnight, Shadow, and Licorice, with Shadow being the all-time-most-votes-classic-favorite!

Other outstanding names were: Boo, Jynx, Cinders, Inky, Sputnik, Raven, Dark Knight, Tabou, and my personal favorite, Moonshadow!

My ACEO artwork of Cat Lover No.83 (pictured here) was first featured on 365 Cat Ladies on December, 2009, expressing her opinion that black cats are lucky. Are you lucky enough to have a beautiful black cat in your life? If so, let us know what his/her name is in the comments section of this post!

Thanks for visiting!

My original ACEO art of Cat Lover No. 83 (pictured here) is now available in my Etsy shop. This mini watercolor painting is in ACEO (Art Card Editions and Originals) format, which means that the artwork size is 2.5" x 3.5", the same as a baseball card.

It is hand-painted on super-heavy Arches 300-lb. acid-free cold-press watercolor paper with professional quality watercolor paints. Click here for more details.

Black cats are special. My sweet black cat's name was Cocoa. Lovely post and painting.

The first black cat I had was named Spook. He was the most elegant creature, with a small white spot at his neck. He wore a reflective white flea collar, and KNEW he looked fabulous. The baby I have now is Katie - she found us the weekend the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge visited Los Angeles. Love the ACEO...

My black kitten's name is Kogepan (meaning burnt bun - I am Japanese) and she loves to slip into my bag just before I left for work. She died of leukemia last year.

The current black kitten's name is Cafe Noir (black coffee, though I am decaf person), he is blind and I am his all seeing eye.
