Sooo I've been breeding B+W Shorthairs...purebred B+W Shorthairs. Of course, when you're dealing with purebreds, you just have to keep breeding and breeding until you get a color mutation. And I was just getting a bit frustrated with not getting any new ones, when I told myself, "Look, if I just get 1 new color mutation, it'll all be worth it."
And then this happened.
Or, I should say, THAT happened.
Orange!! Quite possibly my favorite Petz color!! I was so excited about this gorgeous boy I was totally geeking out xD
And...yeah. His name is That. Allow me to explain.
I don't like naming Petz just numbers or whatever, so I decided on a different naming scheme. I took a chapter of the Bible (Philippians 2, to be exact) and just named the petz after the words in that chapter, in order. now, normally I don't use words like That, but the next word I was "due" to use was "ill", and such a name does not befit such a handsome cat as That!
Yeah, I might change his name, but eh. I think I'll keep it xD
I don't know...I guess That's awfully simple, but for me, that's part of the appeal. And there's just so much to love about this guy. His mutated fur perfectly matches his mutated eyes, his white eyes match his white muzzle and go great with the orange, and he has eyelids which are neither his body color nor black and yet still work perfectly. That's NOT something you see every day! What a stroke of luck! What a blessing!
Ha ha, I think he knows that he's handsome! Also, he's a bit sleepy; he'll yawn and take a nap for like 1 second, then get back up xD
I took him out with a couple of my other B+Ws to see their reaction.
This is him with Longing. They didn't get along too well, to say the least xD In fact, Longing liked to chase That around!
However, then I took him out with a pet named Poured (hey that's what happens when you use this naming system...) and they became fast friends! It was adorable seeing them jumping up and down with joy as they looked at each other!
They sang to each other a bit. Cute, but WOW, B+W Shorthairs have TERRIBLE singing voices xD
At first I thought their relationship might be platonic, buuuuut it wasn't!
I think I'll wait for it to be born. :3
Yeah, I kinda rambled, but whatevs.
<3
